Thermal Biology: Temperature Sensing and Temperature-Responding Systems by Makoto Tominaga, Masahiro TakagiEnglish | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 263 Pages | ISBN : 9819745837 | 55.9 MB
This book concerns two subthemes, 'temperature sensing' and 'temperature-responding systems', addressing the questions of how temperature is sensed and how temperature is related to biological functions, respectively. Temperature affects various physiological functions and is one of the most important factors in homeostasis. The book seeks to integrate our understanding of temperature-dependent biological phenomena with the development of techniques that detect and regulate local temperatures in cells and organs with high resolution and precision.
