Vitamin D Hormone Summary

Vitamin D Hormone: Volume 100 by Gerald Litwack (Emeritus Founding Chair and Professor, Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine, United StatesbrEmeritus Professor, Rutgers University, United States)

First published in 1943, Vitamins and Hormones is the longest-running serial published by Academic Press. The Series provides up-to-date information on vitamin and hormone research spanning data from molecular biology to the clinic. A volume can focus on a single molecule or on a disease that is related to vitamins or hormones. A hormone is interpreted broadly so that related substances, such as transmitters, cytokines, growth factors and others can be reviewed. This volume focuses on vitamin D hormone.
