The heritage of the term syndrome is ancient. Accurate diagnosis of a specific syndromes among the 0.7% of babies born with multiple malformations is a necessary pre requisite of providing a prognosis and plan of management for the affected infant, as well as genetic counseling for the parents.More than 3,000 syndromes classified. Optimal growth, development, and learning requires early recognition and intervention.The purpose of this book is to have an insight into the intricacy of different syndromes of orofacial region, which will help for accurate syndromal diagnosis allows a rational...

"THE MITOCHONDRIA IN HEALTH AND DISEASE" is an attempt to include the various aspects of mitochondria the powerhouse of cell". It starts the evolutionary aspects and ends with the recent advances, including structure, its genome, role in metabolic cycles, and many other important aspects. This is not only useful for students persuing higher education but even for students obtaining their graduation degree. This book is not only for medical students but also for any biology student persuing degree in any branch of biology.

Golgi Apparatus is an organelle in eukaryotic cells that stores and modifies proteins for specific functions and prepares them for transport to other parts of the cell. The Golgi apparatus is usually near the cell nucleus and consists of a stack of flattened sacs. Proteins secreted by the endoplasmic reticulum are transported into and across the Golgi apparatus by vesicles and may be combined with sugars to form glycoproteins. The modified products are stored in vesicles (such as lysosomes) for later use or transported by vesicles to the plasma membrane, where they are excreted from the...

The textbook carries on the tradition of presenting oral pathology in a clinically useful format. The approach taken within this textbook is not designed to promote a particular classification scheme, or necessarily to device a new one, but a detail diagnostic criteria & provide appropriate & comprehensive illustration to assist the pathologist in categorizing giant cell lesions. The age old adage that a picture is worth a thousand words is particularly true for this type of book, therefore, I have opted to include more pictures rather than words. Photomicrographs for most of the lesions have...

This monograph highlights the Special stains (histochemical methods) are used to help visualize and/or identify structures and substances in sections. It highlights the detail in tissues and cells, Although H&E is an essential everyday stain for many pathologists and researchers, sometimes a little extra help is required to reach a diagnosis, or further evaluate a tissue- usually to differentiate components that have already been seen in H&E-stained tissue sections, but need to be definitively identified. This is where the so-called 'special stains' come in handy. This term describes a large...
