The fun and games continue… Taylor and Ransom have been through a lot together—a back-alley beatdown, a fiasco of a family reunion, the wrong funeral…most of the states on the East Coast. They didn’t think there was much more they’d need to overcome, but life has a funny way of throwing obstacles at them. Taylor’s past won’t let her go at the same time Ransom’s past turns to him for help, and a collision course is inevitable. But it’s time to deal with everything once and for all. They’ll need to decide what they’re willing to sacrifice, what they can live with, and, ultimately, what they hold dearest. When the dust finally settles, will Ransom and Taylor have reached the bitter end, or can they build off this rocky foundation toward a future together?

The Antibodies presents models, theories, and techniques of molecular biology for understanding the mechanisms of antibody action, including the genetics, and receptor and channel action. This book includes applications of engineered antibodies in diagnosis, immunotherapy, and protein purification. It provides new insights into the structural basis for antigen binding, effector functions, and regulation of the immune response. The authors focus on the most essential and promising advances in antibody engineering, and on building immunoglobulins for therepeutic applications.

Triglycerides are the chemical form in which most fat exists in food as well as in the body. They are also present in blood plasma and, in association with cholesterol, form the plasma lipids. Triglycerides in plasma are derived from fats eaten in foods or made in the body from other energy sources like carbohydrates. Calories ingested in a meal and not used immediately by tissues are converted to triglycerides and transported to fat cells to be stored. Hormones regulate the release of triglycerides from fat tissue so they meet the body's needs for energy between meals. Cholesterol is a soft, waxy substance found among the lipids (fats) in the bloodstream and in all the body's cells. It's an important part of a healthy body because it's used to form cell membranes, some hormones and is needed for other functions. But a high level of cholesterol in the blood -- hypercholesterolemia -- is a major risk factor for coronary heart disease, which leads to heart attack. Cholesterol and other fats can't dissolve in the blood. They have to be transported to and from the cells by special carriers called lipoproteins. This book presents leading new research from around the world.
