The different chapters highlight novel activities of these proteins, including their role in granule biogenesis, hormone co-storage, stimulus-processing-secretion coupling, autonomic sympathetic/parasympathetic balance, immune and cardiocirculatory function, and the response to stress. Biomedical aspects are also illustrated with focus on the prognostic and diagnostic significance of Chromogranin in the presence of tumors, cardiovascular diseases and inflammatory conditions. The volume is of interest for laboratory and clinical scientists, PhD and Post-doc students that will be inspired to go deep inside the molecular, biochemical, physiological, pharmacological and clinical aspects of these fascinating multifaceted proteins.UNIPA Springer Series,2366-7516Human physiologyAnimal physiologyMolecular biologyHuman Physiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B13004Animal Physiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33030Molecular Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B1700XHuman physiology.Animal physiology.Molecular biology.Human Physiology.Animal Physiology.Molecular Medicine.572.68Angelone Tommasoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtCerra Maria Carmelaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtTota Brunoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910253955303321Chromogranins: from Cell Biology to Physiology and Biomedicine2264748UNINA
