This book describes barriers from the macro to the nanoscale, starting with endothelial and mucosal barriers, and ending with cellular organelles. Experimental approaches to track nanoparticles in vitro and in vivo are presented, as well as the ability to tailor-make nanoparticles for specific functions. Several model types of nanoparticles are pre
If you look at a piece of a leaf or a drop of saliva through a microscope, what do you see? Cells are the basic building blocks of life and they make up every living thing, from plants to animals, from humans to bacteria! In Cells: Experience the World at Its Tiniest, readers ages 12 to 15 investigate cells and learn how they affect our health, reproduction, criminal investigations, and agriculture. More than 250 years ago, scientists discovered that all living things are made up of cells. Since then, cell science has been a foundational step on the path to understanding why living things function and develop and how we can use our knowledge of cells to improve human life. Through cell scien...
¿Por qué nuestro sistema inmunitario no reconoce y combate el cáncer como lo hace con otras enfermedades, como el resfriado? La respuesta a este misterio médico de décadas de antigüedad tiene que ver con los «trucos» que utiliza el cáncer para cortocircuitar las defensas naturales del organismo, trucos que los científicos han descubierto recientemente y que ahora están aprendiendo a combatir. Estamos en medio de una revolución en cuanto a nuestra comprensión del cáncer y cómo vencerlo finalmente. Innovadora, fascinante y contada por expertos, La inmunoterapia y la carrera para curar el cáncer es la historia de los descubrimientos científicos, ganadores del Premio Nobel, que cambian el mundo y liberan nuestra capacidad natural de reconocer y combatir el cáncer, contada a través de las experiencias de pacientes, médicos e investigadores de inmunoterapia de primera línea. Ésta es la increíble historia de la carrera por encontrar una cura, y el relato definitivo de un «momento penicilina» histórico en la ciencia médica.
An introduction to the emerging field of cancer physics, integrating cancer biology with approaches from theoretical and applied physics.
This book reviews the application of Nanobiotechnology in the development of Nanomedicine, while also discussing the latest trends and challenges in the clinical translation of Nanomedicine. Nanomedicine refers to the application of Nanotechnology to medicine and holds tremendous potential for achieving improved efficiency, bioavailability, dose response, personalized medicine and enhanced safety as compared to conventional medicines. The book first introduces readers to the basic concepts of Nanomedicine, and to technological advances in and applications of Nanotechnology in treatment, diagnosis, monitoring, and drug delivery. In turn, it reviews the current status of multi-functionalization strategies for using Nanoparticles in the targeted delivery of therapeutic agents. The book’s third and final section focuses on the regulatory and safety challenges posed by Nanomedicine, including industry and regulatory agencies’ efforts to address them.
