Novel Targets for Chronic Inflammatory Diseases: Focus On Therapeutic Drugs and Natural Compounds

Chronic inflammation is a component of many disease conditions that affect a large group of individuals worldwide, which is characterized by persistent, low-grade inflammation and is increased in the aging population. It occurs when an initiating stimulus is not removed or if the resolution process is disrupted, resulting in a state of low-grade inflammation. It is acknowledged that chronic inflammatory diseases are involved in cardiovascular diseases, endocrine disease, neurodegenerative disease, hepatic disease, pulmonary disease, gastrointestinal disease, and cancer et al., including but not limited to atherosclerosis, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, fibrosis, NAFLD, COPD, inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune disorders (like SLE, RA), which are major causes of death worldwide. Therefore, it is necessary to explore novel targets and therapeutic drugs for chronic inflammatory diseases.

Proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning

Proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning is based on the 8th International Symposium of the same name (ISHVAC2013), which took place in Xi’an on October 19-21, 2013. The conference series was initiated at Tsinghua University in 1991 and has since become the premier international HVAC conference initiated in China, playing a significant part in the development of HVAC and indoor environmental research and industry around the world. This international conference provided an exclusive opportunity for policy-makers, designers, researchers, engineers and managers to share their experience. Considering the recent attention on building energy con...

Technical Territories

Territory is shifting. No longer defined by the dotted line of the border or the national footprint of soil, today’s territories are enacted through data infrastructures. From subsea cables to server halls, these infrastructures underpin new forms of governance, shaping subjects and their everyday lives. Technical Territories moves from masked protestors in Hong Kong to asylum-seekers in Christmas Island and sand miners in Singapore, exploring how these territories are both political and visceral, altering the experience of their inhabitants. Infrastructures have now become geopolitical, strategic investments that advance national visions, extend influence, and trigger trade wars. Yet at t...

Substrate Integrated Suspended Line Antenna and Arrays

This book delves deeply into the substrate integrated suspended line antenna technologies and evaluates its potential to replace conventional three-dimensional (3D) metal-based antennas. Over the years, studies on substrate integrated suspended line antennas have captivated engineers and scientists from the antennas and related engineering fields, all aiming to achieve low-cost and low-loss characteristics. The book establishes a fundamental framework for this topic, while emphasizing the importance of substrate integrated suspended line antennas in the wireless communication and radar systems. It is designed for undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in antenna technology, researchers investigating substrate integrated technology, and antenna engineers working on low-cost and low-loss antennas and arrays.

Alzheimer's Disease

There is a wide scope of clinical phenomenology in Alzheimers disease, regarding the age of onset, presenting features, rate of progression and appearance of other clinical manifestation. Although clinical appearance and neuropathological hallmarks have been defining AD since its first description, major factors which trigger pathology are still unknown. The role of comorbidity is discussed controversially. Important environmental risk factors in AD development are continuous stress, low education and cardiovascular risk factors such as alcohol intake, smoking, hypertension. The role of lipids and cholesterol has been recognized, but the relevant pathogenetic steps are still to be identified. There is an urgent need to understand molecular disease pathogenesis in order to develop early therapeutic targets for the disease.
