Signaling breakthroughs of 2016 clustered mainly in the areas of neuroscience, immunology, and metabolism, with excursions into plant hormone signaling and bacterial manipulation of host signaling pathways. Perhaps reflecting the growing maturity of the discipline of cell signaling, many of this year's breakthroughs have implications for the pathogenesis or treatment of human disease.
2016年的信号转导突破主要集中在神经科学、免疫学和代谢领域,还涉及植物激素信号转导以及细菌对宿主信号通路的操控。或许反映出细胞信号转导学科日益成熟,今年的许多突破都对人类疾病的发病机制或治疗具有启示意义。
