Nuclear Receptors and Genetic Disease
Nuclear Receptors and Genetic Disease provides the first compilation of the role of nuclear hormones in health and disease and incorporates the latest breakthroughs in the field. It provides comprehensive reviews of the major receptors prepared by the acknowledged experts in each area. Each chapter provides information on the history, physiology, structure, mechanism of action, genetics, pathophysiology, disease diagnosis, and disease treatment for a particular nuclear receptor. Each chapter also includes a table showing all the known mutations of the respective nuclear receptor with the corresponding clinical disorder. Receptors included in this book are: The Nuclear Receptor Superfamily Thyroid Hormone Receptors Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors The Androgen Receptor DAX-1 and Related Orphan Receptors The Vitamin D Receptor Retinoid Receptors Mineralocorticoid and Glucocorticoid Receptors Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 4 a Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors Coactivators and Corepressors
Community Series - Liver Fibrosis and MAFLD: from Molecular Aspects to Novel Pharmacological Strategies, Volume II
This Research Topic is the second volume of the Community Series, Liver Fibrosis and MAFLD: from Molecular Aspects to Novel Pharmacological Strategies. Please find the first Edition here. Metabolic disorders, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, represent a critical health problem. This is mainly due to the economic cost of health services supporting the treatment for these patients of both primary and secondary disorder effects. Fatty liver damage associated with metabolic dysfunction is currently called Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD), a new concept proposed in 2020, which affects a quarter of the population worldwide and is characterized by liver fat accumulation and all the repercussions that this may bring, such as inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and in some cases, hepatocellular carcinoma.
Circadian Clocks: Role in Health and Disease
This book sheds new light on the molecular mechanisms that generate circadian rhythms. It examines how biological rhythms influence physiological processes such as sleep, hormone synthesis and secretion, immunity, kidney function, the cardiovascular system, blood pressure, and the digestive system. Clinical implications are considered while exploring the impact of rhythms on neuropsychiatric disorders and chronotherapy’s potential for reducing cardiovascular risk. Offering a cross-section of expertise in both basic and translational (bench-to-bedside) research, this book serves as a guide for physicians and scientists who wish to learn more about the impact of circadian rhythms on physiological processes in health and disease.
Peptides: The Wave of the Future
This volume contains the proceedings of the Second International Peptide Symposium and the Seventeenth American Peptide Symposium, held on 9-14 June, 2001, at the Town and Country Resort in San Diego, California. The biennial meeting was held under the auspices of the American Peptide Society. In addition to the main Symposium, we were honored to have the Merrifield Satellite Symposium, honoring Bruce Merrifield's accomplishments on his 80th birthday. Over 1250 participants from around the world attended the lectures, posters, and exhibits. Reflecting the international nature of the Symposium, there were participants from 37 countries in attendance. In addition to the 75 plenary lectures, there were over 575 poster presentations, and 70 commercial exhibits as well as booths from the American, Australian, Chinese, European, and Japanese Peptide Societies. These proceedings include plenary lectures and oral and poster presentations collected from a wide diversity of topics providing a truly comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the field of peptide science. This publication contains essential reference information for researchers active in peptide science.
Nuclear Receptor Coregulators
First published in 1943, Vitamins and Hormones is the longest-running serial published by Academic Press. In the early days of the Serial, the subjects of vitamins and hormones were quite distinct. The Editorial Board now reflects expertise in the field of hormone action, vitamin action, X-ray crystal structure, physiology, and enzyme mechanisms. Under the capable and qualified editorial leadership of Dr. Gerald Litwack, Vitamins and Hormones continues to publish cutting-edge reviews of interest to endocrinologists, biochemists, nutritionists, pharmacologists, cell biologists, and molecular biologists. Others interested in the structure and function of biologically active molecules like hormones and vitamins will, as always, turn to this series for comprehensive reviews by leading contributors to this and related disciplines. *First published in 1943, Vitamins and Hormones is AP's longest running serial *Each volume contains cutting edge reviews by leading contributors
Women in Cardiovascular Genetics and Systems Medicine
At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
Biased Signaling in Physiology, Pharmacology and Therapeutics
Biased Signaling in Physiology, Pharmacology and Therapeutics is a unique and essential reference for the scientific community concerning how conformational-dependent activation is a common phenomenon across many classes of receptors or signaling molecules. It discusses the role of conformational dynamics in leading to signaling bias across different classes of receptors and signaling molecules. By providing a broader view of signaling bias, this resource helps to explain common mechanisms shared across receptor classes and how this can be utilized to elucidate their cellular activity and better understand their therapeutic potential. Written for both new and established scientists in pharma...
