The aim of this comprehensive encyclopedia is to supply the reader with concise information on molecular pathophysiology, a research area of breathtaking gain of knowledge. We trust that the book shall be a valuable companion for both basic scientists exploring the clinical hallmarks of the diseases they are interested in, and clinicians searching for insight into the molecular pathophysiology of their patients. The entries are structured to allow rapid retrieval of the desired information. For more detailed reading, each entry is followed by key references. The editor is indebted to the section editors for their superb support in selecting the appropriate entries and choosing the leading experts in the respective areas of research. The editor further wishes to express his appreciation to the many brilliant authors who delivered outstanding state-of-the-art descriptions of pathophysiological mechanisms. In addition, the book would not have come to reality without the dedicated, professional and creative support of my secretaries Tanya Loch and Jasmin Bühringer and by several staff members of the Springer Publishing house including Dr. Michaela Bilic, Jana Simniok, Hiltrud Wilbertz, Dr. Rolf Lange, and Dr. Thomas Mager.

Ballermann, MD “Welcome to our Research Day - one of the most important and rewarding days in our academic year! It is a day when we hear about the exciting research projects in which our Graduate Students, Post Doctoral Fellows, Core Internal Medicine and Subspecialty Residents are involved. This year we are fortunate to have as our guest oral adjudicator, Dr. Gary Curhan, Professor of Medicine and Epidemiology, Harvard School of Medicine. Research Day gives the opportunity for all Department members and guests to interact with our young researchers. We currently have a total of 60 Graduate Students, 34 Postdoctoral Fellows and 175 Core Internal Medicine and Subspecialty Residents. As such, I would encourage you to attend the oral presentations in Classroom D and visit at least three posters which will be located in the lower level of the John W Scott Library. Enjoy today and be sure to join us for the presentation of awards at the conclusion of the afternoon oral presentations.” 2 EVANGELOS MICHELAKIS, MD, ASSOCIATE CHAIR, RESEARCH “During the second Persian invasion to Greece (September of 480 BC) a critical battle took place in Thermopylae (“Hot Gates”) a narrow coastal passage in central Greece. The Greek army, under the Spartan King Leonidas, of about 7000 men was called to fight the Persian army, under King Xerxes, of more than 500,000. After the second day of battle, a local resident named Ephialtes betrayed the Greeks by revealing a small path that led behind the Greek lines.
