Redox Regulation of Cell Signaling and Its Clinical Application
Presents recent developments in the rapidly expanding field of redox regulation research. The book examines insights into intracellular communication and new techniques for diagnosing and treating diseases associated with oxidation and reduction. It focuses on important cellular mechanisms, such as redox reactions related to thioredoxin (TRX)/adult T-cell leukemia-derived factor (ADF).
Adult T Cell Leukemia and Related Diseases
Reviews research in adult T cell leukemia (ATL), one of the central disorders related to infections caused by the retrovirus human T lymphotrophic virus (HTLV-1), for researchers and clinicians. Describes clinical features of ATL and other related diseases and biological properties of cells, explains the IL-2/IL-2 receptor system in ATL and redox regulation and ATL-derived factor, and compares the relationship between AIDS and HIV to ATL and HTLV-1. Includes bandw diagrams and photos. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Molecular Interventions in Lifestyle-Related Diseases
The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, officially recognizing that various risk factors for disease are present in our environment, has proposed the concept of lifestyle-related diseases. These include those diseases that are tied to such lifestyle choices as excessive alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking, exposure to stress, and poo
Thymic Hormones and Lymphokines
The Third Annual Symposium on Health Sciences attracted over 400 scientists from 15 countries. It was held at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, D.C. The theme of this meeting was "Thymic Hormones and Lymphokines: Basic Chem istry and Clinical Applications." The meeting emphasized the state of the art with regard to chemistry, mech anism of action, and clinical applications of thymic hormones and lymphokines. In addition to the five sessions, the chairmen of each session were asked to prepare a synthesis and overview of each of the sessions. Some of the chairmen used this time to summarize the new material presented while others addressed important areas of conflict and terminol...
Critical Reviews of Oxidative Stress and Aging
This two-volume reference examines the translational research field of oxidative stress and ageing. It focuses on understanding the molecular basis of oxidative stress and its associated age-related diseases, with the goal of developing new methods for treating the human ageing processes.
Protein Sensors and Reactive Oxygen Species
This volume of Methods in Enzymology is concerned with the rapidly developing field of selenoprotein synthesis and its related molecular genetics. Progressive information on the topics of proteins as redox sensors, selenoproteins, and the thioredoxin system is studied using methods such as bioinformatics, DNA chip technology, cell biology, molecular genetics, and enzymology. The information on novel selenoproteins identified from genomic sequence data, as well as current knowledge on glutathione peroxidases, selenoprotein P, iodothyronine deiodinases, and thioredoxin reductases, is presented in a method-based approach.
Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine
Focuses on the pivotal roles of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS) in the pathogenesis of many clinical conditions (together with their involvement in the ageing process of lower (yeast) cells, and higher organisms including plants). This book also discusses the potential applications of dietary-derived antioxidants.
The Human Retroviruses
This book presents twenty-four tightly focused reviews on the biology, molecular biology, pathology, and epidemiology of the human retroviruses, particularly HIV and HTLV (Types I and II), as well as animal model systems (simian retroviruses, STLV and SIV, and mouse models).Editor Robert C. Gallo is recognized as a co-discoverer of the AIDS virus.
Function and Structure of the Immune System
This volume represents the Proceedings of the VI. International Conference on Lymphatic Tissues and Germinal Centers in Immune Reactions. The Meeting took place in Damp, a small resort with great facilities on the shores of the Baltic Sea near Kiel on June 11 - 16, 1978. Both, the Genius loci and the God of Weathers were charming enough to stimulate the many participants from all continents and also to facilitate the establishment and/or maintenance of close contacts outside the sessions. The organizers of this Conference have tried to remind the scientific community of the necessity to (re-) consider sufficiently the role of morphological studies for a thorough understanding of immune react...
