Advances in Drug Delivery Systems, 6 focuses on the progress in drug delivery systems as manifested in the fields of international pharmaceutics, polymer science, biotechnology, molecular biology, and cell biology. The selection first tackles biologically engineered microstructures and approaches to targeting bioactive compounds. Discussions focus on therapeutic efficiency of fatty acylated antiviral antibodies; effect of artificial fatty acylation on protein binding and uptake; and controlled release of proteins from lipid microcylinders. The text then elaborates on mucosal delivery of macromolecules and targeted delivery of diagnostic agents by surface-modified liposomes. The book examines...

Pulsatility is now recognized as a nearly ubiquitous functional feature of neuroendocrine systems. This volume presents a comprehensive guide to the established and emerging technologies being used to study the perplexing phenomenon of pulsatility. Molecular, cellular, physiological, and mathematical approaches are described in detail. Comprehensive protocols included for the study of * In vitro methods for studying neuroendocrine pulsatility * In vivo sampling and recording procedures for monitoring pulsatility in several species * Improved quantitative and analytical methods for the study of hormone pulsatility
Because of the highly significant and widely recognized roles of ion channels in physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and toxicology, the term ion channel has now become a household word in the biomedical sciences. This volume covers preparations and techniques for the study of various ion channels. Both voltage-gated and ligand-gated ion channels of neurons, axons, and cardiac and smooth muscles are covered. It includes not only patch clamp techniques but molecular biology and imaging techniques as well. Key Features * Comprehensive protocols included for the study of: * Ion channels using patch-clamp, molecular biology, and imaging techniques * Role of ion channels in physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and toxicology * Specific ion channels of specific tissues
