Urticaria
Urticaria is a vexing problem, to the patient who teachers who have stimulated my interest and helped suffers from the annoying pruritus and the fear oflife me to understand the basic and clinical aspects of mast threatening reactions, to the physician who faces the cell-related problems is long. I would like to specifi challenge to find the cause of the eruption and to cally mention J.N. Fink during medical school train control the symptomatology, and to the scientist who ing in Milwaukee, J.R. Pomeranz and R.W. Belcher is asked to explain the process that elicits tissue during dermatology residency in Cleveland, L.M. swelling at the cellular and molecular levels. Lichtenstein and P. Norman...
Urticaria
Urticaria is one of the most common dermatological and allergological cutaneous reactions and, compared to other diseases, it is easily recognized by patients and physicians alike. Nevertheless, the disease is highly complex regarding its eliciting causes, its clinical manifestations and its therapy. Thus, a famous New York dermatologist once mentioned that he would rather have a lion than a patient with chronic urticaria walk into his office. This may seem surprising since, to the uninitiated, different types of urticaria look alike, and the pathomechanisms are rather well understood, with mast cells being almost invariably the main effector cells. In 1986, a monograph of the first editor (...
Ether Lipids
Ether Lipids: Biochemical and Biomedical Aspects is a 21-chapter text that explores the procedures for the analysis, synthesis, and biomedical application of ether lipids. This book surveys first the chromatographic analysis of ether lipids and their characterization by mass spectrometry. The following chapter describes the chemical synthesis of lipids containing alkyl or 1-alkenyl chains. Three chapters are devoted to the biosynthesis of ether lipids, and four others cover unusual ether lipids. Significant chapters focus on biologically active ether lipids, including the naturally occurring platelet-activating factor and synthetic alkyl analogs of lysophosphatidylcholines, which exhibit cancerostatic properties. This text further discusses the application of these and related substances in biomedical research as well as in clinical diagnosis and therapy. The remaining chapters highlight the use of ether lipids in studies aimed at elucidating the structure of membranes and their functions. Organic chemists, biochemists, and researchers in the biomedical field will find this book invaluable.
Eicosanoids and the Skin
This publication summarizes the increasing knowledge in eicosanoid research. It provides a detailed overview of this rapidly expanding field. The text contains sections on general aspects of arachidonic acid metabolism, the role of eicosanoids in skin diseases, and their biological and biochemical effects in skin. Also included is a section on inhibitors of arachidonic acid metabolism with particular reference to use in dermatology. New concepts covered are: possible physiological role of lipoxygenase products in cutaneous wound healing, restoration and maintenance of cutaneous integrity, and the recently recognized protective function of prostaglandins in skin. It is an invaluable resource for individuals involved with dermatology, pharmacology, inflammation, immunology, biochemistry, physiology, internal medicine and therapeutics.
