First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
"Analyzes the role of peptides in promoting or suppressing inflammation. Thoroughly examines the therapeutic potential of key peptides, analogs, agonists, and antagonists that influence cell injury and repair."
This work sets out to provide the information necessary for understanding endotoxin and its effects on the lungs, and explicates the difficulties in determining how to manipulate endotoxin pathobiology. The rationale for, and efficacy of, current and experimental treatments for sepsis, adult respiratory distress syndrome and other endotoxin-induced lung injuries are discussed.
The fifth Oxford Conference was held on September 17th-19th, 1991, at the Fuji Institute of Training in Japan -the first time that the meeting has taken place in the Asian area. The facts that only a relatively few Japanese had attended previous Oxford Conferences and that Japan is far from other regions with possible participants made the organizers anticipate a small attendance at the meeting. However, contrary to our expectations, 198 active members (72 foreign and 126 domestic participants) submitted 146 papers from 15 countries. This was far beyond our preliminary estimate and could have caused problems in providing accommodation for the participants and in programming their scientific ...
Providing an up-to-date overview of the field, this state-of-the-art reference details how sleep and circadian rhythms are interconnected, revealing the impact of various disease states on, and the molecular and genetic basis for, disrupted sleep and circadian rhythmicity and their effects on physical and mental health, safety, performance, and pro
Reflects the explosion of information and technological breakthroughs that have facilitated investigations into the development of the lung-including recombinant DNA technology, molecular genetics, transgenics, and advances in lung cell and mo-lecular biology. Provides nearly 2800 bibliographic citations and over 170 tables, drawings, and x-rays to help clarify specific discussions.
This research-level reference provides a review of the morphological techniques that have become a primary method of anatomical study correlating structure and function in lung physiology and pathology. Detailing the evolution of anatomy as a research discipline, it explores general structural techn
This state-of-the-art reference outlines current knowledge of the structure, transcriptional regulation, and binding characteristics of vascular and leukocyte adhesion molecules and their ligands delineating the nature of adhesion molecule interactions in lung morphogenesis and repair, tumor metastasis, and experimental models of inflammatory lung injury.
This reference offers detailed discussions of the basic aspects of signal transduction, and examines their applications in lung cell biology. Providing an overview of current research directions, Signal Transduction in Lung Cells covers: the structure and function of receptors; the structure and regulation of G proteins; second messenger systems including kinases and phosphatases; airway and alveolar cells; smooth muscle cells; inflammatory and immune cells; muscle tone, ion channels, growth factors and cytokines.;With over 1900 literature citations and figures, Signal Transduction in Lung Cells is intended as a resource for pulmonologists, physiologists, molecular and cell biologists, pharmacologists, and graduate and medical school students in these disciplines.
