Sodium and Water Homeostasis Comparative, Evolutionary and Genetic Models

Sodium and Water Homeostasis Comparative, Evolutionary and Genetic Models / edited by Kelly Anne Hyndman, Thomas L. Pannabecker.

This book presents cutting edge methods that provide insights into the pathways by which salt and water traverse cell membranes and flow in an orchestrated fashion amongst the many compartments of the body. It focuses on a number of molecular, cellular and whole animal studies that involve multiple...
