This reference provides a synthesis of the whole field of vascular biology, from the latest advances in the study of the structure and function of blood vessels to recent investigations of their interaction with blood cells, with non-cellular constituants of the blood, or with cells of the neighbouring tissue. The latest results from tumor angiogenesis to the latest advances in atherosclerosis research are discussed by leading experts in the field. Together with the CD-ROM this guarantees both researchers and clinicians quick and easy access to all relevant information.
The ESC Textbook of Vascular Biology is a rich and clearly laid-out guide by leading European scientists providing comprehensive information on vascular physiology, disease, and research.
This comprehensive reference work, updated from the first edition, brings together the knowledge and expertise of contributors from around the world. It includes new topics such as prostaglandin synthetase enzyme, new synthetic eicosanoids, innovative analytical methods, the influence of cytokines in the regulation of synthesis and actions, newer eicosanoids that influence the cardiovascular system, and newly discovered roles in reproduction and interactions with nitric oxide. This book satisfies a surge of interest in prostaglandins—NSAIDS (e.g. aspirin) are the biggest selling drugs of all time, and the field has been refreshed by the advent of new types (selective COX-2 inhibitors, anti-leukotiene drugs).
Biology and Diseases of the Ferret, Third Edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to provide a current, comprehensive reference on the ferret. Encyclopedic in scope, it is the only book to focus on the characteristics that make the ferret an important research animal, with detailed information on conditions, procedures, and treatments. Offering basic information on biology, husbandry, clinical medicine, and surgery, as well as unique information on the use of ferrets in biomedical research, Biology and Diseases of the Ferret is an essential resource for investigators using ferrets in the laboratory and for companion animal and comparative medicine veterinarians. The Third Edition adds ten completely new chapters, covering regulatory considerations, black-footed ferret recovery, diseases of the cardiovascular system, viral respiratory disease research, morbillivirus research, genetic engineering, hearing and auditory function, vision and neuroplasticity research, nausea and vomiting research, and lung carcinogenesis research. Additionally, the anesthesia, surgery, and biomethodology chapter has been subdivided into three and thoroughly expanded. The book also highlights the ferret genome project, along with the emerging technology of genetically engineered ferrets, which is of particular importance to the future of the ferret as an animal model in research and will allow the investigation of diseases and their genetic basis in a small, easily maintained, non-rodent species.
Hyaluronan and its derivatives has developed very quickly in the last few years from a scientific novelty into an important new material for a diverse range of medical and biomaterial applications. This landmark conference focused on developments and applications in the use of hyaluronan in tissue repair and reconstruction, drug delivery systems, anti-cancer treatments and joint recovery and engineering.The entire range of hyaluronan progress is covered in depth by the more than 135 individual papers:Analytical chemistryStructural elucidation and basic chemistryElectron microscopy and atomic force microscopyProduction, purification and characterisationQuality in production systemsChemical modificationDerivatives and propertiesCross-linkingFree radical modificationPhysical characterisationRheologyAggregation phenomenaInteraction with water and solution propertiesCell biologyControl and regulation of HA synthasesCell surface chemistryHA cell receptors and cell signallingInteraction with proteins and other biological ligandsBiophysical aspectsEffects on pain receptorsNeurobiologyRole in organisation of extracellular matrixRole in development (embryogenesis): cell movement/migrationMedical applicationsUses in cartilage and wound repairInflammationWound regenerative healingSurgery and tissue engineeringViscosupplementation / osteoarthritisViscoaugmentation and viscoprotectionAnti-adhesion applicationsBrug delivery systemsBinding onto tumour cells and metastases - Outlines the proceedings of the landmark conference which focused on key developments and applications in the use of hyaluronan in tissue repair and reconstruction, among other uses - The entire range of hyaluronan processes is dealt with in depth by more than 135 individual papers presented in two volumes - Covers analytical chemistry, chemical modification, physical characterisation, cell biology and medical applications
This work covers review articles and research articles related to the "Bioactive Drugs in Drug Discovery Design". It covers the synthesis and properties of bioactive molecules and enzymes, the role of membranes in drug activity and formulation.
This comprehensive encyclopedic reference provides rapid and focused information about topics of cancer research for the clinical and basic scientist, students and informed laymen. It will be readily accessible, both electronically and in print, such that it will be of value to both the scientific community and the public.
