Inflammation and Retinal Disease: Complement Biology and Pathology
Numerous studies have pointed to the key role of complement in the pathogenesis of retinal disease, particularly age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Reports about new gene associations and links to other physiological pathways are emerging almost on a weekly base. Several promising clinical candidates covering a wide area of potential treatment applications are in the pipelines of both industrial and academic groups. This indicates an increasing interest in complement as a therapeutic target. In view of these exciting discoveries, scientists from around the world convened at the First Aegean Conferences Conference on Inflammation and Retinal Disease: Complement Biology and Pathology (Jun...
Current Topics in Complement II
Complement has long been regarded as a pivotal effector arm of the innate immune response, eliciting important immunoregulatory functions in the context of inflammation and also serving as a vital link between the innate and adaptive immune response. In the post-genomic era, our knowledge of the innate immune system is enriched by findings that point to novel functions that do not strictly correlate with immunological defense and surveillance, immune modulation or Inflammation. Several studies indicate that complement proteins exert functions that are either more complex than previously thought, or go well beyond the innate immune character of the system. The advent of high-throughput platfo...
Mechanisms of Drug Resistance in Neoplastic Cells
Bristol-Myers Cancer Symposia, Volume 9: Mechanisms of Drug Resistance in Neoplastic Cells provides information on both basic scientific and clinical studies on the causes and implications of tumor cell resistance to common antineoplastic agents. The book describes the colon cancer as a model for resistance to antineoplastic drugs; mathematical modeling of drug resistance; and the mechanism of induced gene amplification in mammalian cells. The text also discusses the cellular concomitants of multidrug resistance; resistance to alkylating agents; and the phosphoprotein and protein kinase C changes in human multidrug-resistant cancer cells. Novel drugs that affect glutathione metabolism; the r...
Handbook of Natural Toxins
Featuring the work of 55 leading authorities on natural toxins, this new volume highlights the diversity of chemical classes among toxins, the range of effects on biological systems, and the variety of expressions of toxicoses. Supplying findings that have yielded significant solutions to practical toxicoses problems, this exceptional reference describes the toxicology and chemistry of toxic and phar macologically active compounds from plants and fungi ... discusses the occurrence, incidence, and epidemiology of several types of plant and fungal compound-induced toxicoses in man and animals ... details the structure/activity relation of several plant and fungal toxins and plant teratogens .....
