The significance of polyamines in cell proliferation andcarcinogenesis has stimulated further research interest in theirbiochemistry and metabolism. These papers, which update the availableliterature on polyamines, are grouped into four main areas: themetabolism of polyamines; the effect of polyamines on cellularmetabolism; inhibitors of polyamine metabolism and their clinicalrelevance; application to diagnosis and prognosis.
The Proceedings include contributions from a wide range of researchinterests with special emphasis being placed on the clinical aspects ofthese compounds.
The book will be of interest to researchers in biochemistry, pharmacology,pathology, endocrinology, microbiology and oncology.
