Introduction to Pharmacology, Third Edition
The first edition of Introduction to Pharmacology has over recent years become a highly influential text among students wishing to acquire a knowledge of pharmacology without having to refer to the larger, more detailed, traditional pharmacology volumes. This revised and updated second edition contains significant new material to bring the reader up-to-date with the latest practices and principles in pharmacology. Exploring the basic principles in both the therapeutic and toxicological aspects of drug use, the book employs contemporary examples of medication, supplemented with an increased number of accurate and easy-to-interpret figures and diagrams. Additionally, Introduction to Pharmacolo...
Introduction to Pharmacology
Advances in pharmacogenomics and proteomics, along with the introduction of recombinant DNA technology, have expanded the applications of pharmacology to encompass a range of disciplines. Biomedical researchers, protein specialists, and molecular biologists are all involved in the development and delivery of novel drugs. Therefore, students in a va
Drug Delivery Systems
Drug delivery technologies represent a vast and vital area of Research and Development. The demand for innovative drug delivery systems continues to grow, and this growth continues to drive new developments. Building on the foundation provided by the first edition, "Drug Delivery Systems," Second Edition covers the latest developments in both industry and academia. New in this edition : · Chapter focusing on novel technologies and their global outlook · Coverage of electronically controlled drug delivery · Macrocapsules and nanoparticles in drug targeting · Drug nanocrystals and other new delivery systems · Updated information on liposomes as carriers Written in a straightforward, clear, and concise manner, the author provides a global perspective on current and future advances and market opportunities. "Drug Delivery Systems," Second Edition answers the need for comprehensive information in a single resource for anyone venturing into this area of drug development. The book contains black-and-white illustrations.

The Blackbird Papers
As World War II was winding down, German scientists achieved one last great scientific achievement: they used an antigravity propulsion system to launch a rocket to Mars. Their mission appeared to fail, until America's Mars Lander photographs it on Mars. While quickly kept secret from humanity, some are desperate to use this technology to attack Israel with bioterrorism.
Ryanodine Receptors
This is the first single source to present this important topic from the points of view of many international experts. Chapters written by morphologists, biochemists, pharmacologists, and molecular biologists from around the world are brought together to provide an introductory overview to this key component of intracellular signalling. This ideal text/reference will be useful to students of the basic sciences and medicine as well as professional scientists who want to update their knowledge in this field.
Therapeutic Modulation of Cytokines
Cytokines are peptide or protein cell-to-cell signaling molecules that play vital roles in normal cell and tissue homeostasis, as well as in responses to infectious agents. Because of their importance in virtually all forms of pathology, the pharmaceutical industry is devoting great effort to develop methods for the control of cytokine synthesis or action. This is the first volume to bring together experts from academia and the pharmaceutical industry to discuss problems and solutions in the therapeutic control of cytokines. An introductory section reviews the biology, physiology, and pathology of cytokines. Internationally recognized scientists then discuss the development of low molecular ...
Pharmacology in Exercise and Sports
This is the first book to describe the pharmacological interaction of drugs and exercise with organ systems at molecular and cellular levels. It explains the effect of exercise on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs, and the activation or induction of antioxidant enzymes which may take place via the adenosine receptor or may occur due to gene expression.
Placental Pharmacology
Placenta plays a very significant role in the development of secretory and regulatory functions for the maintenance of pregnancy and in the nutrition of the embryo. It shares many functions of the heart, lung, liver, endocrines, and other organs. In Placental Pharmacology, fourteen expert authors discuss how placenta and its component parts can be used effectively in drug development research and in the study of transfer mechanisms across membranes. This reference begins by describing the use of modern biophysical methods to study placental function and prospects for their application in pharmacological research. The next three chapters deal with placental hemodynamics, use of placental tiss...
Pharmacological Effects of Ethanol on the Nervous System
This book dissects the effects of ethanol on the major neurotransmitter systems affected by ethanol and correlates these actions with the behavioral consequences. The subject is approached first from the perspective of the neurochemical system and the behaviors resulting from ethanol's effects on that system. The behaviors themselves are discussed in later chapters. Some older theories of the effects of ethanol such as the membrane fluidization hypothesis are evaluated in light of new and updated information. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) as well as the structural damage in the brain by long term ethanol exposure are also discussed.
