Maxi calcium-activated potassium channels (BK) are an amazing category of ion channels which are found in cellular plasma membranes as well as in membranes of intracellular organelles. The function of these channels is to repolarize any excited membrane by passing a potassium outward current, in response to depolarization and/or increase in local calcium levels. Thus, voltage and calcium ions are involved in gating the channel under physiological conditions. This dual activation makes them perfect sensors for many cellular events that require integration between intracellular calcium levels and electrical signals. A plethora of physiological and pathophysiological functions, such as membrane...
Surface chemistry has a major influence on the biocompatibility of materials, and applying a suitable coating can provide a cost-effective way to ensure the compatibility of medical devices and biomaterials without compromising their physical properties. Biocompatible coatings mimic naturally occurring coatings but may offer additional functionalities, such as lubrication, resistance to abrasion, or bacterial inhibition. This book explores various approaches to designing and developing biocompatible coatings and the range of applications they offer. The editors have brought together a wealth of expertise, providing, for the first time, a comprehensive volume addressing the current needs in medicine. Consideration is given to the next generation of coating systems and industry case studies are also presented.

In the era of precision oncology, liquid biopsy techniques, specifically the use of circulating tumor cells (CTCs), cell free circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and extracellular vesicles particularly exosomes, represent a paradigm shift in the conventional use of tissue based biomarkers. Compared to tissue biopsy, liquid biopsy is cost-effective, readily accessible and less invasive, minimizing the bias of sampling and offering the opportunity for serial monitoring. Circulating biomarkers detected in liquid biopsy (blood and urine, etc.) are helping in understanding cancer genomic landscape and evolution, thus have been largely studied in term of cancer screening, risk stratification and early d...
