Foreword: Geisinger Clinic -75 years ofcommitment to patient care, education and research In1990theGeisingerHealthCareSystemcelebratedits75thanniversary. Sinceitsfounding, Geisingerhas grownfrom asingle63-bedhospitalinDanvilleintoamulti-institutionalsystemofhealthcarethatdelivers servicesin45 locationsthroughout central and northeastern Pennsylvania. Thesystem includes: - GeisingerFoundation- parentorganization. - GeisingerClinic- themulti-specialty,salariedphysiciangroup,whichincludesmorethan460physicians practicing in 65 specialty areas. The clinic administers the research program and conducts continuing medicaleducationprograms. GeisingerClinicphysiciansrecorded more than1millionpatientvisitslast year. - GeisingerMedical Center- a577-bed regionaltertiary referral centerlocatedinDanville, PA. - Geisinger Wyoming ValleyMedical Center- a230-bedsecondaryreferral centerin Wilkes-Barre. - Marworth- anationally-recognizedalcoholandchemicaldependencytreatmentcenterthatoperatestwo facilities- onein Waverly, nearScranton, andone in ShawneeonDelaware, near the DelawareWater Gap. - GeisingerHealthPlan- a88,000memberhealthmaintenanceorganizationlicensedtodeliverservicesin 17Pennsylvaniacounties. - Geisinger Medical ManagementCorporation- afor-profit corporation that providescontract manage ment, consulting, and other medical servicesto health care providers inside and outside the Geisinger system. TheSigfriedandJanetWeisCenterforResearchstandsastangibleevidenceoftheGeisingerorganization's commitment to fulfilling its triple missionofpatientcare, education, and research. Dedicated in September 1987, the center includes 65,000 square feet oflaboratories, conference areas, offices, and informal meeting rooms. Initially opened with a shelled-in third floor, the center has ten laboratoriesfor itstenstaffscientists, eightassociatescientists,seven postdoctoralfellows, and25research technicians. Focusingatthecellularandmolecularlevelofcardiovascularfunction,workinprogressisfundedthisyear at more than $1.3 million by outside agencies, including the National Institutes ofHealth, the American Heart Association, Mars Foundation, NationalScienceFoundation, and theArthritis Foundation. Currentresearchtopicsincludestudiesofextracellularmatrixproteinsandcontrolofcellulargrowth,the role ofrenin angiotensinsystemsincardiaccellgrowth,secondmessengersinphysicalsignaltransduction, the expressionofG-proteins in myocytes, post-translationalmodificationofproteinsby isoprenoids. Other topics include the control of cell cycling, transacting factors in rDNA expressions, effects of contractionon extracellularmatrix protein genes, and control ofcontraction ofvascularsmoothmuscles. TheSigfriedandJanetWeisCenterforResearchhasbeen namedto honorthecommitmentoftheWeis familytotheGeisingersystem.ThesupportofSigfriedandJanetWeishasbeenkeyininitiationoftheBasic Research Program at Geisinger and in its continued development. To recognize these contributions, the publicationofthisscientificsymposiumentitled'MolecularMechanismsofCellularGrowth'isdedicatedto Sigfried and Janet Weis. The symposium was held at Geisingeron June 17-21, 1990to celebrate the 75th Anniversaryofthe Geisinger HealthCare System. 2 SigfriedandJanetWeis Sigfried Weis became chairman ofthe Geisinger Medical CenterBoard ofDirectors in 1978. Since 1981, whenhebecamethefirst chairmanoftheGeisingerFoundation,Mr. Weishasbeenasourceofinspiration and wisdom for Geisinger's transformation into a multi-institutional systemofhealthcare. The Geisinger systemtoday isone ofthe largestnot-for-profit healthsystemsintheeastern UnitedStates. Janet Weis, a published author and civic leader, has served for five years as co-chairperson of the Children'sMiracleNetworkTelethonatGeisingerMedicalCenter. Shehascontributedherenergytohelp the GeisingerTelethonraise more than$3.8million to 'helpmake miracleshappen'. TheWeis family has along history ofactive communityinvolvement. The Sigmundand Claire G.

On behalfofthe GeisingerHealthCare System, Iwant to thankthe participantsoftheSymposiumand thosewhosubmittedpapersforthisfocussed issueofMolecularandCellularBiochemistry. Iamespecially appreciative for the supportofNaranjan S. Dhalla, Editorwho invited publication ofthese papers. H.E.
