Glycoconjugate Research
Glycoconjugate Research, Volume I contains the proceedings of the Fourth International Symposium on Glycoconjugates, held in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, in September 1977. Contributors focus on the state of knowledge in the field of glycoconjugates ranging from polysaccharides and glycoproteins to glycolipids, proteoglycans, and all their varieties in plants, animals, and microorganisms. This text is organized into three sections and consists of 87 chapters. After an introductory chapter where the use of glycosidases for the structural analysis of complex carbohydrates is described, the discussion turns to other methods used for elucidating the structure of complex carbohydrates. The chapters...
Mucus in Health and Disease
Sir Francis Avery Jones 149 Harley Street, London, WlN 2DE, U.K. This first international symposium on Mucus in Health and Disease brought together medical scientists, physiologists, pharmacologists, physicians, surgeons, gynaecologists, ophthalmologists, anatomists, biologists, medical engineers and biochemists - a spectrum which indicates the wide field of interest in mucus both in health and in disease. The idea for the meeting came from Dr. S. Gottfried whose researches led to the development of carbenoxolone, a substance which stimulates mucus production and in this way favours the healing of peptic ulcers. The idea was enthusiastically welcomed by Professor Dennis Parke and he, and Mr....
A Clinician's Guide to Sperm DNA and Chromatin Damage
This comprehensive, up-to-date text, which brings together the key practical elements of the rapidly evolving field of sperm DNA and chromatin abnormalities, is divided thematically into five main sections. Part I discusses human sperm chromatin structure and nuclear architecture, while part II presents laboratory evaluation of sperm DNA damage, including SCSA, SCD, TUNEL and Comet assays, and cytochemical tests. Biological and clinical factors in the etiology of sperm DNA damage are discussed in part III, including oxidative stress, abortive apoptosis, cancer, and environmental and lifestyle factors. Part IV presents clinical studies on the utility of sperm DNA damage tests, both with natur...
Heterosexual Transmission of AIDS
Since the HIV virus was first identified as the cause of AIDS, basic research and epidemiological data have accumulated dramatically and rapidly. Yet, with all that is known about the virus, surprisingly little is known about precisely how it is actually transmitted. Focusing on the sexual transmission, prevention, and control of the HIV virus in heterosexuals, Heterosexual Transmission of AIDS examines the sexual mechanisms of transmission, including HIV interactions with sperm, semen, and cervical and vaginal secretions. Exploring the principle risk factors in heterosexual transmission of HIV, the book offers authoritative information on routes of transmission and discusses the impact of specific contraceptive methods in controlling the spread of the disease. Includes an overview of the biology of retroviruses and their pathogenicity and describes animal models for investigating HIV infection mechanisms and transmission prevention.
