The Skin and Gene Therapy
This first comprehensive guide to the novel field of gene therapy in the skin provides insight into the basic principles and methods of gene transfer into the skin and its applications. It enables the understanding of possibilities and implications such as immunization and treatment as well as safety aspects. Gene therapy in dermatology is the avantgarde of a new field in science with a great future for human health.
Progress in Gene Technology and Skin Gene Therapy
Significant progress has been made in gene technology and skin gene therapy in the last few years. Besides the development of suitable animal models, novel molecular technologies such as small inhibitory RNA are discussed, which enable the modification of sequence-specific gene expression. Progress is reported in the field of DNA vaccination against HIV-1 as well as in the correction of xeroderma pigmentosum using retroviral-based gene transfer. In addition to gene technology and skin gene therapy, recent advances in molecular diagnostics of malignancy are described. Microarray-based gene expression profiling is a powerful technology with which up to 22,000 genes can simultaneously be analyz...
Tropical Dermatology E-Book
In an increasingly global community, the rapid adaptation of microorganisms has facilitated the return of old communicable diseases and the emergence of new ones. Tropical Dermatology, 2nd Edition, provides a practical, highly illustrated approach to the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of tropical skin diseases. In a concise and user-friendly format, it offers authoritative coverage of epidemiology, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, pathology, laboratory tests, management, and prevention for both common and rare conditions. Examines the full range of tropical skin diseases in an easy-to-reference format, with consistently organized, templated chapters. Structures clinical guidance b...
Gene Technology and Gene Therapy in Dermatology
Basic concepts and recent advances in the field In recent years the skin has become an important target organ of gene technology and gene therapy. Its easy accessibility, well-established culture conditions and grafting techniques, as well as its function as an immune organ make it a promising candidate for the development of innovative treatment strategies. This special issue of Cells Tissues Organs gives an overview of the latest achievements in the field of skin gene therapy focusing on basic research and initial preclinical applications. It describes novel techniques of generating epidermal equivalents from hair follicle cells, the reaction of keratinocytes to exogenous DNA, and the gene...
Immunotreatment and Gene Therapy of HIV Infection
Tremendous progress in the understanding of the immune pathogenesis of HIV disease has been made in the last two decades like in no other field of science ever before. Besides the inhibition of viral replication with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) immunoreconstitution remains an important mainstay to be achieved in the battle against HIV. Intensive research has led to worldwide phase-III studies of immunotreatment of HIV infection such as the SILCAAT and ESPRIT trials to boost existing immune responses and to restore the immune system leading to the control of viral replication. The science and practical management of immunotherapy of HIV patients is described by famous experts from immunology, virology, gene therapy, dermatology, and clinical medicine.
Skin Cancer
The second edition of Skin Cancer: Recognition and Management is a definitive clinical reference which comprehensively examines the wide range of premalignant and malignant cutaneous disorders, including melanoma, Kaposi's sarcoma and other sarcomas, cutaneous lymphoma, cutaneous metastatic disease and cutaneous markers of internal malignancy, with emphasis on the most recent advances in diagnosis and management. Fully revised and expanded, this new edition now includes full colour photographs and illustrations throughout to aid recognition and diagnosis, and covers the latest developments and treatment modalities. New chapters include: Merkel Cell Carcinoma Dermoscopy Skin Cancer: Recognition and Management is a definitive clinical reference for dermatologists, oncologists, residents and any medical practitioner with an interest in skin cancer.
