Glycinergic transmission: physiological, developmental and pathological implications
Inhibitory glycine receptors (GlyRs) containing the alpha1 and beta subunits are well known for their involvement in an inherited motor disorder (hyperekplexia) characterised by neonatal hypertonia and an exaggerated startle reflex. However, it has recently emerged that other GlyR subtypes (e.g. those containing the alpha2, alpha3 and alpha4 subunits) may play more diverse biological roles. New animal models of glycinergic dysfunction have been reported in zebrafish (bandoneon, shocked), mice (cincinatti, Nmf11) and cows (CMD2). In addition, key studies on neurotransmitter transporters for glycine (GlyT1, GlyT2, VIAAT) have also revealed key roles for these presynaptic and glial proteins in ...
Molecular, Cellular and Model Organism Approaches for Understanding the Basis of Neurological Disease
The advent of next-generation sequencing technologies has resulted in a remarkable increase our understanding of human and animal neurological disorders through the identification of disease causing or protective sequence variants. However, in many cases, robust disease models are required to understand how changes at the DNA, RNA or protein level affect neuronal and synaptic function, or key signalling pathways. In turn, these models may enable understanding of key disease processes and the identification of new targets for the medicines of the future. This e-book contains original research papers and reviews that highlight either the impact of next-generation sequencing in the understanding of neurological disorders, or utilise molecular, cellular, and whole-organism models to validate disease-causing or protective sequence variants.
Retinal Degenerative Diseases
This book will contain the proceedings of the XV International Symposium on Retinal Degeneration (RD2012). A majority of those who will speak and present posters at the meeting will contribute to this volume. The blinding diseases of inherited retinal degenerations have no treatments, and age-related macular degeneration has no cures, despite the fact that it is an epidemic among the elderly, with 1 in 3-4 affected by the age of 70. The RD Symposium will focus on the exciting new developments aimed at understanding these diseases and providing therapies for them. Since most major scientists in the field of retinal degenerations attend the biennial RD Symposia, they are known by most as the â...
Genomics with Care
In Genomics with Care Mike Fortun presents an experimental ethnography of contemporary genomics, analyzing science as a complex amalgam of cognition and affect, formal logics and tacit knowledge, statistics, and ethics. Fortun examines genomics in terms of care—a dense composite of affective and cognitive forces that drive scientists and the relations they form with their objects of research, data, knowledge, and community. Reading genomics with care shows how each resists definition yet is so entangled as to become indistinguishable. Fortun analyzes four patterns of genomic care—curation, scrupulousness, solicitude, and friendship—seen in the conceptual, technological, social, and methodological changes that transpired as the genetics of the 1980s became the genomics of the 1990s, and then the “post-genomics” of the 2000s. By tracing the dense patterns made where care binds to science, Fortun shows how these patterns mark where scientists are driven to encounter structural double binds that are impossible to resolve, and yet are where scientific change and creativity occur.
Chemical and Biochemical Approaches for the Study of Anesthetic Function, Part A
Chemical and Biochemical Approaches for the Study of Anesthetic Function, Part A, Volume 602 assembles new information on our understanding of anesthesia. This latest release in the series includes sections on how physical accuracy leads to biological relevance, best practices for simulating ligand-gated ion channels interacting with general anesthetics, computational approaches for studying voltage-gated ion channels modulation by general anesthetics, anesthetic parameterization, pharmacophore QSAR, QM, ONIOM, and kinetic modeling of electrophysiology data. - We have selected the primary experts to write about each approach - This provides one-stop shopping for all the means of addressing this complex question - Anesthesia is enormously important as almost everybody receives it at some point
