This book overviews purinergic receptors that are playing key roles in human and pathophysiological processes. The book elaborates on how selective P1 and P2 modulators have been developed as therapeutics for a variety of diseases. It also provides an overview of current perspectives in the design of purinergic receptor modulators and future challenges such as the availability of selective ligands for all receptor subtypes. Divided into 12 chapters, this comprehensive volume also offers a multidisciplinary perspective on the historical evolution, starting with a chapter devoted to the roots and early discoveries of adenosine and its receptors, followed by a twenty-year retrospective on the s...

This contributed volume applies the insights of supramolecular chemistry to biomedical applications such as ions/water transport through nano-scale channels, gene therapy, tissue engineering and drug delivery, to cite some of the major investigations.The challenge is to understand the mechanisms of transport through tissues particularly in the therapeutic treatment of a disease where the active drug must be delivered directly to diseased cells without affecting healthy cells. As a result, smaller quantities of active substances can be used to treat the disease. Another interest concerns new ways to administer gene therapy. If genes are often delivered to their target cells by adapted viruses...

Comprehensive and cutting-edge, Endocannabinoid Signaling: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition is a valuable resource for all researchers interested in learning more about this important and developing field.
Ettore Roesler Franz è stato una figura unica e di spicco tra i pittori romani ottocenteschi. Oltre a essere stato a conoscenza dei segreti degli iniziati, la fitta rete di amicizie e conoscenze che aveva con i maggiori esponenti culturali e artistici europei ha reso la sua pittura innovativa e densa di rimandi simbolici. Un artista completo e sensibile, dotato di una grande forza d'animo e una bontà che tanti ricordano. A collegarlo ad artisti come Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, William Blake e Picasso è la massoneria, che come un filo attraversa cinquecento anni di storia dell'arte. E a raccontarci qui la sua intensa storia che si intreccia con quella dell'arte e di tanti uomini di cultura e arte è Francesco Roesler Franz, che con questo saggio ci lascia una testimonianza indimenticabile dell'artista mentre coglie l'occasione per riscoprire le origini della propria famiglia.
