Yamamoto (373), Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of California, San Francisco, San Fran- cisco, California 94143 Preface Fundamental endocrinology seems to be expanding rapidly on three major fronts: newer understanding of the actions of well-known hormones made possible by progress in biochemistry and molecular biology, the discovery of new hormones, and the nature of interaction of multiple hormones in regu- lating specific phenotypes. The contributions to Volume V of "Biochemical Actions of Hormones" exemplify these categories. Topics in the first category involve modifications of chromatin structure by hormones by E. M. Johnson and V. Allfrey; regulation of exocytosis by F. Butcher; ontogeny of estrogen receptors by A. M. Kaye; hormonal regulation of cells of the seminiferous tubule by I. B. Fritz; advances on the progesterone receptor by W. V. Vedeckis, W. T. Schrader, and B. OMalley; the role of glucocorticoids in the integration of mammary tumor virus genes by K. R. Yamamoto, R. K. Ivarie, J. Ring, G. M. Ringold, and M. R. Stallcup; and a model system for estrogen action by J. R. Tata. Under the category of phenomenology of newer hormones there are contributions from J. J. Van Wyk and L. E. Underwood on somatomedins and their actions, from G. Carpenter and S. Cohen on epidermal growth factors, and from A. W. Norman on the specific mode of action of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. Finally, under the nature of interaction of multiple hormones regulating specific phenotypes, there is a contribution from D. T. Kurtz and P. Feigelson on multihormone control of mRNA for a specific hepatic protein. The expansion of basic endocrinology must be as unlimited as the potential progress of molecular biology, an evident conclusion which will guarantee future volumes in this treatise. This is an appropriate place in which to thank the contributors to this volume and Academic Press for their continued fine cooperation in the publication of this treatise.
