Epigenetics and Disease: Pharmaceutical Opportunities

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gasser, Susan / Li, En, PUBLISHER: Springer, Epigenetics has emerged recently as an important area of molecular biological studies. Epigenetic modifications are potentially heritable but reversible alterations in gene expression which determine the fate of cells and therefore play a role in diseases, including cancer and neuronal disorders. The great interest in this regulatory system results from the fact that epigenetic, in contrast to genetic, alterations are in principle amenable to pharmacological intervention. A few epigenetically active drugs, for example histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) and DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitors, are currently undergoing clinical trials. This volume highlights the results of such studies, including the epigenetic control of gene expression and post-transcriptional silencing of genes by RNA interference (RNAi) and microRNAs (miRNSs) as well as new findings from stem cell research which are relevant to pharmacological applications.

Nitric Oxide in Brain Development, Plasticity, and Disease

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dawson, Ted M. / Dawson, Valina L. / Mize, R. Ranney, PUBLISHER: Elsevier Science & Technology, Nitric oxide, "Molecule of the Year" in , continues to be one of the most widely studied molecules in brain research. This excellent volume elucidates the implications of this gas in a variety of brain processes. The volume is divided into five sections, describing: the mechanisms underlying the release and action of Nitric Oxide in the CNS, and the distribution of Nitric Oxide in the brain using various techniques; how Nitric Oxide interacts with and regulates the "N"-methyl-D-aspartate receptor; the role of Nitric Oxide in pathway refinement and synapse stabilization in the developing CNS; the role of Nitric Oxide in adult brain plasticity including long-term potentiation and depression; and the role of Nitric Oxide in brain injury such as occurs during ischemia and other events produced by glutamate neurotoxicity, and in neuroprotective mechanisms that promote neuron survival. "Nitric Oxide in Brain Development, Plasticity, and Disease" is the first "Progress in Brain Research" volume to be published in abstracted form on the World Wide Web. It includes title pages, abstracts, selected figures, and complete references. It also includes a digital brain atlas for readers to view a mouse brain in a three-dimensional full-color rendition, and much more. Buy Now

City of Plagues: Disease, Poverty, and Deviance in San

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Craddock, Susan, PUBLISHER: University of Minnesota Press, Disease may not discriminate, but it helps those who do. When smallpox struck many areas of San Francisco during the nineteenth century, the Chinese were only one of the populations affected, yet they were blamed for its spread. Tuberculosis in the early twentieth century disproportionately affected poor immigrants, but it also negatively informed social policy about poverty and poor neighborhoods. Addressing these diseases meant undertaking social, physical, and symbolic realignments of the city, processes that come into sharp relief in City of Plagues, an absorbing look at the role of disease and health policy in the construction of race, gender, and class, and in urban development in nineteenth- and twentieth-century San Francisco. Because of its association with medicine, health policy is generally perceived as objective. Yet, as this book demonstrates, its interpretive responses to disease have determined the social location and material reality of those groups at real or perceived risk. Focusing on San Francisco between and , Susan Craddock considers tuberculosis, plague, smallpox, and syphilis as diseases whose devastations were derived in part from their use as political tools and disciplinary mechanisms. She shows how health policy, by concentrating its responses to smallpox and plague on Chinatown and the Chinese, profoundly influenced the physical look and social location of the Chinese community. She also reveals how the city's antituberculosis campaign, while leaving the disease's root causes untouched, promoted social and domestic restructuring, particularly in its emphasis on women's roles as "health-gatekeepers", maintainers of the values of hygiene,nutrition, and sanitation. Recent instances of AIDS in San Francisco and tuberculosis in New York suggest that little has changed -- and that, as Craddock argues, unless health policies begin to address economic inequity, poor housing, and racial and gender discrimination, then disease will continue to characterize and shape urban society.
