Cell biology is a fundamental branch of biological science, and new advances and discoveries are continually being made. This book brings together expert contributions from around the world to present the latest knowledge on key aspects of cell biology today. The first part considers current frontiers and perspectives in cell biology. Topics considered include biology of cilia and ciliopathies, and adult stem cells in tissue homeostasis and disease. Part two considers issues in cell interaction. Contributions discuss approaches to bone cell interaction in health and disease, and the use of imaging flow cytometry for cell interaction analysis. Part three focuses on meiosis. Studies presented range across topics including the evolutionary origin and adaptive function of meiosis, and improving education on meiosis in schools in developing countries. Part four advances the discussion of meiosis through a focus on molecular mechanisms and cytogenetic diversity. Here, new insights are presented on subjects including haploid independent unreductional meiosis in hexaploid wheat, cohesins and cohesin-regulators in meiosis, and avian meitotic chromosomes as model objects in cytogenetics. This book is an ideal source of relevant, up-to-date perspectives on key topics in the field.
