Huntington's Disease
Preceded by Huntington's disease / [edited by] Gillian Bates, Peter S. Harper, Lesley Jones. 3rd ed. 2002.
Neurogenetics
The rapid identification and characterization of genes of neurological relevance holds great potential for offering insight into the diagnosis, management, and und- standing of the pathophysiologic mechanisms of neurological diseases. This volume in the Methods in Molecular BiologyTM series was conceived to highlight many of the contemporary methodological approaches utilized for the characterization of neu- logically relevant gene mutations and their protein products. Although an emphasis has been placed upon descriptions of methodologies with a defined clinical utility, it is hoped that Neurogenetics: Methods and Protocols will appeal not only to clinical laboratory diagnosticians, but als...
DOCTOR, DARLING
The Doctor's Dilemma What kind of woman needed a court order to get a date? To his dismay, Houston pediatrician Conner Malloy would soon find out. Stranded in a little Texas town, arrested on ridiculous charges, the broad-shouldered bachelor was "sentenced" by a courtroom full of Cupids to date no-men-no-matter-what Gillian Bates… and to keep his "community service" a secret! Trouble was, commitment-fearing Connor fell hard for the pretty, guy-shy single mom and her adorable son. He even fantasized about fatherhood and forever. But, drowning in deception and desire, how could Connor ever confess to Gillian that a jury of matchmakers had manipulated this miracle!
Better Eyesight for Busy People
"e;Better Eyesight for Busy People"e; is a collection of 12 easy but effective eye exercises, based on the Bates Method for Better Eyesight Without Glasses which was started in America by Dr William Horatio Bates MD (1860-1931). The exercises, which have been compiled by Gillian Snoxall, are aimed at busy people (especially those over the age of 40) who would like to improve their eyesight naturally but who do not have time to wade through acres of print.
The Woman Who Walked into the Sea
A groundbreaking medical and social history of a devastating hereditary neurological disorder once demonized as “the witchcraft disease” When Phebe Hedges, a woman in East Hampton, New York, walked into the sea in 1806, she made visible the historical experience of a family affected by the dreaded disorder of movement, mind, and mood her neighbors called St.Vitus's dance. Doctors later spoke of Huntington’s chorea, and today it is known as Huntington's disease. This book is the first history of Huntington’s in America. Starting with the life of Phebe Hedges, Alice Wexler uses Huntington’s as a lens to explore the changing meanings of heredity, disability, stigma, and medical knowle...
Huntington's Disease
It is now almost a decade since the identification of the Huntington's Disease gene and its mutation. Major advances in our understanding of the disorder have been made during this time. Since publication of the first two editions of this book, considerable progress has been made into understanding how the mutation causes the symptoms and brain pathology of HD. Experimental tools are in place to take this research further towards new therapeutic approaches. Due to these major advances, this well-established book has required radical updating. An international group of researchers and clinicians with specialist interests in Huntington's Disease have been commissioned to document the major recent advances in the genetics and neurobiology of the disease. Developments in our understanding of how the molecular basis of the disorder results in brain degeneration, with full coverage of transgenic animal models, neurochemical studies and advances in neuropathology are discussed in detail. The clinical sections.
Huntingtons Disease
Huntingtons disease is an incurable and fatal degenerative condition that robs people of normal brain function when they should be in the prime of life. This book describes the condition and the genetic causes behind it, follows researchers on their path to scientific discovery, identifies people with the condition who have spoken up for the good of others, and tracks the latest treatments and research aimed at helping those living with it. Sidebars highlight medical breakthroughs and the people who made them.
Polyglutamine Disorders
This book provides a cutting-edge review of polyglutamine disorders. It primarily focuses on two main aspects: (1) the mechanisms underlying the pathologies’ development and progression, and (2) the therapeutic strategies that are currently being explored to stop or delay disease progression. Polyglutamine (polyQ) disorders are a group of inherited neurodegenerative diseases with a fatal outcome that are caused by an abnormal expansion of a coding trinucleotide repeat (CAG), which is then translated in an abnormal protein with an elongated glutamine tract (Q). To date, nine polyQ disorders have been identified and described: dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA); Huntington’s dise...
