Intracellular cell signaling is a well understood process. However, extracellular signals such as hormones, adipokines, cytokines and neurotransmitters are just as important but have been largely ignored in other works. Aimed at medical professionals and pharmaceutical specialists, this book integrates extracellular and intracellular signalling processes and offers a fresh perspective on new drug targets.
It is my great pleasure to present the proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering (ICBBE 2014), held in Suzhou, China, September 20–22, 2014. I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to all the authors and participants for their support to our conference. The continuous researches on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering are now of critical significance to the sustainable development of science, education, culture and the society. Especially in modern times, it plays an important role in the interdisciplinary field among the life science, mathematical science, computer science and electronic information science...

Gain an understanding of diseases and disorders to effectively assist the Physical Therapist! Goodman and Fuller's Pathology for the Physical Therapist Assistant, 3rd Edition provides a solid background in pathology concepts and how they affect the role of the PTA in client rehabilitation. With an easy-to-read approach, chapters define each disease or systemic disorder, then describe appropriate physical therapy assessments plus guidelines, precautions, and contraindications for interventions. Case studies show how treatment ideas may be applied in everyday practice. From PTA educator Charlene M. Marshall, this market-leading pathology text provides the practical tools required to treat pati...
The fascinating story of glutamate, the neurotransmitter that controls the structure and function of the brain in health and neurological disorders. Sculptor and Destroyer tells the story of a simple, little-known molecule that became a master architect and commander of the human brain: glutamate. Upward of 90 percent of the neurons in the human brain deploy glutamate as their neurotransmitter. Other neurotransmitters can only exert their effects on brain function by subtly modifying the ongoing activity of glutamatergic neurons, but during brain development glutamate controls the growth of dendrites and the formation of synapses. In this eye-opening book, Mark Mattson explains how the neuro...
Micronutrients and Brain Health addresses cutting-edge research related to processes of oxidative stress that affect brain function, an area of increasing significance for those concerned and involved with public health and translational medicine.
