Identification and Characterization of Antimicrobial Peptides with Therapeutic Potential
This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Identification and Characterization of Antimicrobial Peptides with Therapeutic Potential" that was published in Pharmaceuticals
Advanced Electrode Materials
This book covers the recent advances in electrode materials and their novel applications at the cross-section of advanced materials. The book is divided into two sections: State-of-the-art electrode materials; and engineering of applied electrode materials. The chapters deal with electrocatalysis for energy conversion in view of bionanotechnology; surfactant-free materials and polyoxometalates through the concepts of biosensors to renewable energy applications; mesoporous carbon, diamond, conducting polymers and tungsten oxide/conducting polymer-based electrodes and hybrid systems. Numerous approaches are reviewed for lithium batteries, fuel cells, the design and construction of anode for microbial fuel cells including phosphate polyanion electrodes, electrocatalytic materials, fuel cell reactions, conducting polymer based hybrid nanocomposites and advanced nanomaterials.
Immunopathogenetic Mechanisms of Arthritis
The fundamental problem facing scientists and clinicians in Rheumatology is that so little is known about the biology of joints. It is our view that a real interface between basic and clinical science offers the best chance of gaining a better understanding of arthritis and in this book we aim to provide a basis for such an interface. Each chapter provides a lucid account of the current literature, reflecting the eminence of each author in their own field. The contributors offer a variety of modern approaches to the study of inflammatory joint disease, illustrating some of the exciting opportunities for research which exist. We hope that those who share our view find these pages informative ...
Stability and Characterization of Protein and Peptide Drugs
This is the first volume to make available specific case histories of therapeutic proteins and peptides that have been marketed or are currently under clinical testing. The editors have selected a wide range of molecules derived from monoclonal antibodies, recombinant DNA, and natural and chemical sources to provide formulation scientists with practical examples of the development of pharmaceutical products.

Handbook of Growth Factors
Handbook of Growth Factors, Volume III is devoted to hematopoiesis and its regulation by endogenous factors with growth stimulatory and growth inhibitory properties. The book provides detailed discussions on signaling agents related to the regulation of hematopoiesis, including the interleukins, the colony-stimulating factors, the interferons, the tumor necrosis factors, the erythropoietic growth factors, the platelet-derived growth factor, the leukemia inhibitory factor, and the transferrins. The structure and function of each factor is covered in detail, as well as its receptor and postreceptor mechanism of action and its possible role in neoplastic processes. The book also explores the present state of the knowledge about megakaryocyte growth factors and macrophage-derived growth factors.
IL-4
The Structure and Function of Interleukin-4 provides a detailed summary of the pleiotrophic effects of IL-4. In Section I, the structure of the IL-4 gene, IL-4R gene, and IL-4 protein are described. In Section II, in vitro effects of IL-4 are reviewed and focus is on particular cell lineage, as well as the role of IL-4 in hemopoiesis. Section III features chapters that discuss the effects of IL-4 in vivo, highlighting the dramatic ability of IL-4 to induce the switch of B cells to produce IgE. The Structure and Function of Interleukin-4 is an important book for immunologists, cell biologists, and pharmacologists who need a succinct description of the role of IL-4 in the development of different cell types and in cell-cell communication in the immune system.
Mechanisms of Differentiation
Significant recent advances in cell culture technology now permit a detailed biochemical and molecular analysis of differentiation in both normal and tumor cells. These studies are important in attempting to understand the complex factors involved in normal growth and development, as well as the abnormalities associated with carcinogenesis. Mechanisms of Differentiation, Volumes I and II, is comprised of review chapters addressing various topics of current interest in this important area of research. Topics discussed include genes controlling differentiation, changes in gene expression during differentiation, induction of differentiation, induction of differentiation as a mode of action of chemotherapeutic agents, and the effect of cell shape, growth factors and differentiation modulating agents on the differentiated cell phenotype. Mechanisms of Differentiation is valuable to researchers involved in differentiation and development, carcinogenesis, cell biology, chemotherapy, and immunology.
