Описание:

Many human diseases such as cancer, diabetes and neural disorders arise from the malfunction of signalling components. This is frequently not caused by a single defect but is due to alterations to multiple components of an integrated signalling network. Experimental tools to quantify such changes precisely and describe the interconnected multichain signalling pathways in health and disease in a time–resolved manner are becoming increasingly available, resulting in a exponential increase in detailed information. For the unaided human mind, classification of this wealth of data and understanding the implications for pathophysiology is getting more and more difficult. Computational tools are aprerequsiite for understanding of the complex interactions in biological information processing from the vast array of experimental data. These tools are starting to take shape. They have the potential to integrate many details into a systematic analysis of the entire signalling network and enable...
