Targeting Trafficking in Drug Development edited by Alfredo Ulloa-Aguirre, Ya-Xiong Tao.

Cellular trafficking is only recently identified as a site for therapeutic intervention. This book provides up to date information on the mechanism for exploiting this area for drug development as well as a clear understanding of the individual components of cellular trafficking. The authors are exp...
