The Neurology of AIDS
This comprehensive textbook covers all aspects of the neurology of AIDS including the latest scientific research, clinical presentation and treatment strategies. Particular emphasis is placed on current thinking with regard to disease pathogenesis patient care, and the prospects for the future.
Chronic Lung Disease in Early Infancy
This definitive volume presents the clinical and pathological features of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, a disease that accounts for the majority of long-term hospitalizations, slow growth, and recurrent early childhood respiratory ailments that are common in low-birth-weight newborns. Highlights relevant animal models for studying the process of
Autophagy in Current Trends in Cellular Physiology and Pathology
Autophagy in Current Trends in Cellular Physiology and Pathology is addressed to one of the fundamental molecular mechanisms - autophagy- evolutionarily adopted by cells for processing of unnecessary or malfunctioned constituents and shaping intracellular structures, adjusting them to environmental conditions, aging, disease, neoplasia, and damages over their life period. Particular attention is paid to autophagy-mediated barrier processes of selective sequestration and recycling of impaired organelles and degradation of invading microorganisms, that is, the processes sustaining intrinsic resistance to stress, tissue degeneration, toxic exposures, and infections. The presented topics encompass personal experience and visions of the chapter contributors and the editors; the book chapters include a broad analysis of literature on biology of autophagy.
Sigma Receptors: Their Role in Disease and as Therapeutic Targets
Originally confused with opioid receptors and then orphan receptors with no biological function, Sigma Receptors are now recognized as relevant to many degenerative diseases with remarkable potential as therapeutic targets. In this text, new information about the structure of sigma 1 receptor, its binding sites are provided as well as its expression in many cell types. It’s putative role in degenerative neuronal diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, pain, drug addiction and locomotor activity. Their roles in possible treatments for blinding retinal diseases emphasize the tremendous far-reaching potential for ligands for these receptors. Exciting breakthroughs in this dynamic field in the last decade are reported herein, which will guide future investigators in determining the full potential of this unique, yet abundantly expressed protein.
Neuroimmune Pharmacology and Therapeutics
Bridging neuroscience, immunology, and pharmacology, and bringing together the foremost authorities, Neuroimmune Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 3rd edition, is an invaluable reference and textbook. The text discusses the immunology of the nervous system. New chapters are offered on innate, humoral, and cellular immune responses (innate and adaptive immunity). The additions join each component of the immune response in descriptions for how each affects nervous system function in both health and disease. Next, discussions of neuropharmacology now include both drug development and delivery into brain subregions to optimize clinical responses. This edition features greatly expanded coverage of t...
Gene therapy for the heart: encapsulated viruses to the rescue
This commentary provides an in-depth analysis and perspective on the pioneering research article titled ‘Extracellular Vesicle-Encapsulated Adeno-Associated Viruses for Therapeutic Gene Delivery to the Heart’. The original study explores the innovative use of extracellular vesicle-encapsulated AAVs (EV-AAV-6 and -9) as a superior gene-delivery approach for cardiomyocytes (CMs), which not only provides increased AAV neutralizing antibody (NAb) resistance but also has implications for increased gene delivery efficacy to ischemic hearts. This study examined the efficacy of EVs isolated from the conditioned medium of AAV-6 and -9 producing HEK293T cells in combinatorial in vitro and in vivo model systems in comparison to free AAVs in the presence of the NAbs. This commentary highlights the key findings, discusses potential implications, limitations, and suggests future directions for research in this evolving field.
