Emerging Targets in Antibacterial and Antifungal Chemotherapy
ISBN: 9781461364405 / Angielski / Miękka / 606 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Emerging Targets in Antibacterial and Antifungal Chemotherapy offers constructive ideas to researchers that could lead to the discovery of entirely new classes of drugs. The authors emphasize new topics rather than review work on known antibacterials and antifungals, and identify new targets--either the rate-limiting component of a biochemical pathway or a component of the pathway that is susceptible to a screening'' or rational drug design'' approach. Each chapter reviews the biochemical pathway and its place in the cellular scheme in order to place the target in perspective. The authors, a...

Neural Regulation in the Vertebrate Endocrine System: Neuroendocrine Regulation
ISBN: 9781461371779 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The objective of this book is to provide recent information on neural regulation in the endocrine system in vertebrates. Classical studies have revealed that certain neurons synthesize and release chemical messengers into the vascular system. These neurons are endocrine devices that link the brain with the endocrine glands and other target organs. In vertebrates, the hypothalamus is the seat for chemical coordination and integration of en- vironmental and hormonal cues to modulate function of the pituitary gland, and conse- quently, the functions of other endocrine glands. Exciting...

Thrombosis and Thrombolysis
ISBN: 9781468416619 / Angielski / Miękka / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Recent years have seen great strides in research on the pathogenesis of thromboses, unmatched by progress in other branches of hemostasiology. The orthodox concepts of the mechanisms of thrombus formation described by Virchow have come down to us as a "classical triad" of factors. Now, due to developments in molecular biology, pharmacology, and patho physiology, they appear in a basically new light. The fruits of modern research, currently being tested or already imple mented in clinical practice, have opened up the possibility of controlling the hemostatic process and developing effec tive...

This comprehensive treatise on the reticuloendothelial system is a project jointly shared by individual members of the Reticuloendothelial (RE) Society and bio- medical scientists in general who are interested in the intricate system of cells and molecular moieties derived from those cells which constitute the RES. It may now be more fashionable in some quarters to consider these cells as part of what is called the mononuclear phagocytic system or the lymphoreticular system. Nevertheless, because of historical developments and current interest in the subject by investigators from many diverse...

ISBN: 9781468457384 / Angielski / Miękka / 530 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The present volume originated from the workshop "Transduction in Biological Sys- tems," held at the Marine Biological Station of the Universidad de Valparaiso, Mon- temar, Chile, May 23-30, 1988, and contains contributions from most of the partici- pants in the workshop. The title of both the workshop and the book reflects accurately the central theme discussed during several days of intense debate and profound intellectual exchange in the peaceful environment offered by the central coast of Chile. It was apparent that the workshop was a great success-a sentiment expressed by many seasoned...

New Developments in Dietary Fiber: Physiological, Physicochemical, and Analytical Aspects
ISBN: 9781468457865 / Angielski / Miękka / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It has been acknowledged that the physiological effects of dietary fiber are an exceedingly complex matter which requires a multidisciplinary research effort. The increased scientific involvement of the medical community, nutritionists, chemists and physicists is not only warranted but it has become mandatory. This is because we are entering a more advanced research phase in which the observed . in vivo effects should not be only recorded, but they should be systematically correlated with the physicochemical and analytical properties of the individual dietary fibers. The Division of...

The Pygmy Chimpanzee: Evolutionary Biology and Behavior

Historical Remarks Bearing on the Discovery of Pan paniscus Whether by accident or by design, it was most fortunate that Robert M. Yerkes, the dean of American primatologists, should have been the first scientist to describe the characteristics of a pygmy chimpanzee, which he acquired in August 1923, when he purchased him and a young female companion from a dealer in New York. The chimpanzees came from somewhere in the eastern region of the Belgian Congo and Yerkes esti mated the male's age at about 4 years. He called this young male Prince Chim (and named his female, com mon chimpanzee...

The Filaria
ISBN: 9781475776003 / Angielski / Miękka / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Filarial nematodes constitute and important group of human pathogens in tropical regions of the world. Diseases associated with these worms are generally separated into two categories: filariasis, caused by infections of lymphatic dwelling parasites and onchocerciasis, or river blindness, caused by infections of Onchocerca volvulus. Other filariae specifically infect humans and it is likely that zoonotic filarial infections may alter the outcome of infections with human parasites. The chapters in this book will cover concepts that, in most instances, overlap all of these parasites as well as...

Glycomicrobiology
ISBN: 9781475786569 / Angielski / Miękka / 549 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At one time, it was thought that only eukaryotic cells could glycosylate proteins. Two major kinds of glycoproteins were recognized in animal cells, consisting of O- or N-linked saccharides. The O-linked saccharides were derived from gly- sylation of threonine or serine, whereas N-linked saccharides were derived from asparagine. In recent years, numerous glycoproteins have been found in bacteria, many of which do not possess typical animal cell glycosylation patterns. One of the purposes of this volume is to provide a thorough discussion of c- bohydrate-peptide linkages in bacteria....

An enormous amount of new knowledge on the molecular basis of various biological phenomena has emerged in the rapidly expanding field of bioscience. Since the frontiers in scientific research are difficult to define' the creation of new knowledge depends not only on new methods and concepts but also on interaction with other fields of research. The principles and methods of biophysics should be a rational language for discussion not only between scientists of the different disciplines of natural sciences' such as physics' mathematics' biochemistry' molecular biology and biotechnology' but...

Messenger, originally published by Intext Publishers. In the revision, I have attempted to keep the original theme, and to update it with current research findings and new chapters or sections on insect pathology, microbial control of weeds and plant pathogens, population dynamics, integrated pest management, and economics. The book was written as an undergraduate text, and not as a complete review of the subject area. Various more comprehen- sive volumes have been written to serve as handbooks for the experts. This...

Cell Membrane Transport: Experimental Approaches and Methodologies
ISBN: 9781475796032 / Angielski / Miękka / 484 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Experimental science is a complicated creature. At the head there is a Gordian knot of ideas and hypotheses; behind is the accumulated mass of decades of research. Only the laboratory methods, the legs which propel science forward, remain firmly in touch with the ground. Growth, however is uneven; dinosaurs develop by solid means to give a vast body of results, but few ideas. Others sprint briefly to success with brilliant, though ill-supported, ideas. The problems which this book addresses is to maintain an organic unity between new ideas and the current profusion of innovative experimental...
