In recent decades eicosanoids have been attracting an increasing
amount of attention as a result of their important physiological
roles in many areas of biology and medicine. The eicosanoids
comprise the prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes and are
products of arachidonic acid, an essential polyunsaturated fatty
acid stored in tissue phospholipids. Disturbances of eicosanoids
and their metabolic products play a regulatory role in many types
of cell injuries and diseases. One of the most exciting areas of
eicosanoid research pinpoints their participation in the control of
cell proliferation and differentiation. Eicosanoids form a link
between different fields of research into such areas as cancer,
inflammation and radiation-induced injury. This link provided the
impetus for the development of the conference series of which the
present volume represents the proceedings of the Second
International Conference, held in Berlin in October 1991.
