Methods for Studying Nucleic Acid/Drug Interactions
Molecular Motors in Bionanotechnology
Edited by
Keith Firman and James Youell
Meni Wanunu
University of Portsmouth, UK
Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
This book describes a wide range of molecular motors, ranging from chemical motors to biological motors, in a manner that updates, or reviews, both classification of the type of motor and the grouping into families. Many techniques have evolved to study and characterize molecular motors at the single-molecule level (e.g. use of molecular tweezer devices for single-molecule studies) and the reader is introduced to the concepts and benefits of each technique. In addition, the book looks at structural information and how this helps understand function and, finally, how some of these motors are being used or may be used in the future as part of a synthetic biology approach to building devices and sensors.

This book describes energy loss magnetic chiral dichroism (EMCD), a phenomenon in energy loss spectroscopy discovered in 2006. EMCD is the equivalent of XMCD but is based on fast probe electrons in the electron microscope. A spatial resolution of 2 nm has been demonstrated, and the latticeresolved mapping of atomic spins appears feasible. EMCD is, thus, a promising technique for magnetic studies on the nanometer and sub-nanometer scale, providing the technical and logistic advantages of electron microscopy, such as in situ chemical and structural information, easy access, and low cost.

Without established cause-effect relationships, the measured data will have no true predictive significance. This interpretive process is key for achieving an analytical understanding of the measurement. The popular first edition of this text delivered a unique focus on structure correlation and interpretation of spectra for the practitioner. The thoroughly updated and revised second edition continues the tradition and includes a full library of color spectra in a larger format to ensure clarity and reader comprehension. Catalog no.

This book provides the state-of-the-art developments with a specific focus on the interaction of stem cells with biomaterials for constructing and regenerating tissues and organs integrating strategies from basic biology, to materials for remodeling to production processes. Stem cells of both embryonic and adult origin are discussed with applications ranging, but not limited to, nerve regeneration, liver, pancreas, skin, trachea, cartilage and bone repair, and cardiovascular therapy. All developments in the field reflecting the design and construction of the human body and its principal anatomy will be discussed from a materials point of view.
In recent years, questions about democratic influence on science and technology have received much attention. The lesson from the European unrest over GMO is that consumer-citizens will react negatively to just having to accept the introduction of new, partly untested technologies. A number of political bodies have started to involve citizens and to consider their concerns, attitudes, hopes, and worries in an early stage of the coming nano revolution. An international consortium of experts mapped a large number of these deliberations, mainly in the European Union and the United States, and proceeded to give closer analysis of a selection of those that were found most interesting. The second part of the book analyzes seven citizen-oriented deliberations. The third part of the book looks into a set of more stakeholder-oriented deliberations.

Until recently, computational studies of biomolecules and nanomaterials have considered the two subjects separately. This book provides insights into computational simulations of biomolecules and nanomaterials collectively. It also examines novel modeling concepts at the nano-bio-interface: interactions between biomolecules and nanomaterials, such as DNA-wrapped nanotubes, nanobiosensors, and biomimetic materials. Expert contributors from around the world address such important topics as the molecular dynamics of protein translocation, coarse-grained modeling of CNT-DNA interaction, multi-scale modeling of nanowire resonator sensors, and the molecular dynamics simulation of protein mechanics.
The field of proteomics has had a tremendous impact on our understanding of biological systems. While proteomics encompasses multiple approaches, the application of mass spectrometry-based techniques has generated large, information-rich data sets that have enabled a much clearer understanding of areas such as cell signaling. For example, protein post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation are critically involved in signal transduction in almost all biological systems; much progress has been made to identify these protein alterations during signal transduction. This book focuses specifically on the application of these approaches to understanding signaling in biological systems.

Biology influences design projects in many ways; the related impact is known as biomimetics or biomimicry. Investigating the animal kingdom as a source of inspiration, this book focuses on the analysis of various animal skins, translating the learned principles into the built environment. Skin is a complex organ that performs various functions; similarly, building envelopes serve multiple roles as interfaces between building inhabitants and environmental elements. The resulting architectural building coverings take into consideration dynamic local environmental conditions. The text illustrates how supporting biomimetic principles can create a more sustainable way of building and living.
This book draws together recent data on both cytoplasmic and flagellar dyneins and the proteins they interact with, to give readers a clear picture of what is currently known about the structure and mechanics of these remarkable macromolecular machines.

Series: Oxidative Stress and Disease
Cytokines are a group of peptides secreted by cells of the immune system such as macrophages, lymphocytes, and T cells. They can be divided into functional families and have wide-ranging impacts that affect cells and molecular pathways to the whole individual. Written by distinguished scholars and experts, this book is a holistic reference to enable scientists and doctors to understand cytokines in specific or broad detail. The book is divided into sections that cover general and cellular aspects, lifestyle factors, immunology and infections, cancer, cardiovascular and metabolic disease, and organs and tissue systems.
Discussing the role of dysregulated inflammation and lifestyle in chronic diseases, this book looks at the link between inflammation and a range of disorders such as neurodegenerative, pulmonary, rheumatic, arthritic, gastrointestinal, skin, heart, and infectious diseases; asthma; insulin resistance; cancer; neuropsychiatric disorders; and chronic wounds. For each ailment, contributors review the clinical and scientific literature, examine current and potential therapies, and suggest directions for future research.

Regenerative Medicine, Stem Cells and the Liver David C. Hay MRC Centre for Regenerative Medicine, University of Edinburgh, UK
Atlas of Fish Histology Franck Genten, Eddy Terwinghe, and André Danguy
The regenerative capacity of the liver has been recognized for centuries, but when it is overwhelmed by insulting stimuli or is chronically damaged, its regenerative capability is substantially reduced or lost. Researchers have been working to find solutions to cure failing human liver function. Given the ability of stem cells to self-renew and differentiate into specialized cell liver types, they represent an attractive strategy to replace lost liver function. This book begins by outlining the complex nature of human liver disease and proceeds to examine the potential that stem cell-based approaches have to offer. Catalog no.

Microbiology is the study of microorganisms (or microbes), which include bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and even prions. In short, microbiology refers to the study of life and organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye. Microorganisms are found in almost every habitat present in nature and are vital to humans and the environment. While some microbes are harmful, causing diseases that harm and kill people, animals, and plants, they are exploited by researchers. They have uses in food, water treatment, science and medicine, energy, warfare, and much more. This new book presents a collection of new research and studies covering advances in microbiology dealing with medicine, agriculture, and more.

Lundblad Biotechnology, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA
The large number of molecular protocols available creates a dilemma for those attempting to adopt the most appropriate for streamlined identification and detection of fungal pathogens of interest. This volume contains expert contributions from international mycologists involved in fungal pathogen research and diagnosis. Following a similar format throughout, each chapter comprises a review of the classification, epidemiology, clinical features, and diagnosis of one or a group of related fungal species; an outline of clinical sample collection and preparation procedures; a selection of representative stepwise molecular detection protocols; and a discussion on further research requirements for improving the diagnosis.
Examining the chemical modification of biological polymers and the emerging applications of this technology in the field of biotechnology, this book reflects the change in emphasis from the study of protein structure/function toward applications in therapeutics and diagnostics. It begins with a review of the basic science involved, including the underlying organic chemistry, the use of various chemical reagents, and the chemical modification of nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and proteins. It then discusses the characterization of non-enzymatic chemical modification of biopolymers and the use of chemical modification to produce biotechnology products.

Atlas of the Neonatal Rat Brain Renuka Ramachandra and Thyagarajan Subramanian
Diana Ivanova Stephanova Institute of Biophysics and Biomedical Engineering, Sofia, Bulgaria
Bozhidar Dimitrov Kolev Institute for Population and Human Studies, Sofia, Bulgaria
The first histological atlas of the rat neonatal brain, this volume provides researchers in neurology, pharmacology, biology, and veterinary science with detailed color images of the normal developing rat brain. Each plate is a photomicrograph composite that shows the entire brain in sagittal and coronal sections at each stage and stained with cresyl violet. Various brain nuclei and their connections are specifically labeled. Since changes in the rat brain postbirth are so rapid, images are provided for postnatal days one, five, and fifteen.
This book covers the computer simulation of demyelinating neuropathies and neuronopathies and compares models with clinical findings. Through the approximation of nerve excitation and conduction, the authors show how the versatile structure of nerve fibers relates to different modes of focal prospects, inward and outward currents, conduction velocity, and errant transmission. They also explain how mathematical models elucidate emerging fine distinctions between hereditary and acquired neuronal diseases, including Charcot-MarieTooth, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, Guillain-Barre syndrome, multifocal motor neuropathy, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

With excerpts from international specialists in the field of neurobiology, this book presents state-of-the-art research on the neurobiological aspects of depression. It discusses opioid and endocannabinoid systems and depression and explores other sources for depression provided by research in biochemistry, molecular biology, and genomics. Topics covered include genetic factors of depression; monoaminergic pathways and depression; serotonergic pathways and depression; melantonergic system, chronobiological rhythms, and depression; the significance of tachykinin mechanisms in depression; and the melatonergic system, chronobiological rhythms, and depression. This book serves as a reference for researchers in neuroscience and related fields, as well as graduate students.
Recent discoveries have highlighted the role of omega-3 fatty acid DHA in brain health and degeneration as well as the molecular biology of this fatty acid in neurons. Neurons and the DHA Principle explores this duality, proposing a new model for the cause of Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders, in which DHA-enriched membranes of neurons become dysfunctional and energetically wasteful, triggering premature death of neurons. Using examples from the world of animal cells, the book illustrates how DHA acts both as an essential building block of neurons while also conspiring for their assassination during aging.

A comprehensive systems overview of sensory and reward processing in the brain, this book explores what reward processing can teach us about the senses and what sensory processing can teach us about reward. In examining this neurobiological interface, the book reveals how the intrinsic properties of sensory systems effectively define and constrain the ambitions of reward-related processing in human and non-human brains. With contributions from leading investigators in the fields of sensation and reward, the text injects the “sensory” back into the study of reward processing, and the “rewarding” back into the study of sensory processing.
New technologies that allow us to investigate mechanisms and functions of the brain have shown considerable promise in treating brain disease and injury. These emerging technologies also provide a means to assess and manipulate human consciousness, cognitions, emotions, and behaviors, bringing with them the potential to transform society. This volume explores the technical, moral, legal, and sociopolitical issues that arise in and from today’s applications of neuroscience and technology and discusses their implications for the future. Topics discussed include neurotechnology in education, neuroimaging and tissue implantation technology neuroprostheses, cyborg technology, and more.

Neuronal communication forms the basis for all behavior, from the smallest movement to our grandest thought processes. Among the many mechanisms that are used in this function, spike timing is among the most powerful and, until recently, perhaps the least studied. In the last two decades, however, the study of spike timing has exploded. This book presents the function of spike timing in sensory, motor, and integrative processes. The chapters bring together the work and ideas of leaders in the field to address current thinking as well as the future of the study of spike timing. The text provides readers with a wide perspective on how spike timing is produced and used by the nervous system.

It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging and neuroscience methods, this volume details current understanding in the neural bases for these phenomena as studied across species, stages of development, and clinical statuses.Topics discussed include anatomy, neurophysiological bases and how multisensory stimuli can dramatically change the encoding processes for sensory information, combinatorial principles and modeling, development and plasticity, clinical manifestations, how perception and action are affected by altered sensory experience, and attention and spatial representations.
Viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) are a group of febrile illnesses caused by RNA viruses from several viral families. These infectious viruses lead to a potentially lethal disease syndrome characterized by fever, malaise, vomiting, mucosal, and gastrointestinal bleeding, edema, and hypotension. The four viral families known to cause VHF disease in humans naturally reside in an animal reservoir host or arthropod vector. This volume presents the most current information on each virus. It examines the fevers caused by these viruses, their mechanisms for spreading, their molecular pathogenesis, host pathogen immune interactions, and detection, treatment, and prevention.

Chapman & Hall/CRC Texts in Statistical Science
University College London and MRC Clinical Trials Unit, UK
Discussing techniques used in report writing, models for diagnostics, and design issues, this book covers the spectrum of statistical principles and analytical tools used in epidemiological research. This second edition includes new material on systematic evaluation, meta-analysis, regression dilution, case-cohort studies, case-crossover studies, pooled logistic regression and a companion website containing data sets for examples and exercises, SAS and Stata code for examples, a sample size calculator, and a SAS floating absolute risk macro. The author favors the use of basic mathematics and practical methods over complicated mathematical proofs, making the book comprehensive yet accessible.
Through real-world case studies, this book shows how to use Stata to estimate a class of flexible parametric survival models. It discusses the modeling of timedependent and continuous covariates and looks at how relative survival can be used to measure mortality associated with a particular disease when the cause of death has not been recorded. The book describes simple quantification of differences between any two covariate patterns through calculation of timedependent hazard ratios, hazard differences, and survival differences.

Addressing issues that have plagued researchers throughout the last decade, this book provides new insights into the many existing problems in statistical modeling and offers several alternative strategies to approach these problems. Emphasizing the importance of statistical thinking behind all analyses, the authors use specific examples in epidemiology to illustrate different model specifications that can imply different sets of causal relationships between variables. Each model is interpreted with regard to the context of implicit or explicit causal relationships. The authors also use vector geometry where applicable to provide an intuitive understanding of important statistical concepts.

Statistics for Epidemiology Nicholas P. Jewell University of California, Berkeley, USA Chapman & Hall/CRC Texts in Statistical Science
Written by one of the top biostatisticians in the field, Statistics for Epidemiology fills a substantial niche by explaining the ideas behind the analysis of epidemiological data without requiring a high level of mathematics or resorting to a “cookbook” format. It covers the basic material for analyzing data that arise from simple epidemiological studies, including case-control and matched studies. Methodologically, it describes stratification techniques for handling confounding and interaction and the logistic regression model. The author uses a case-study approach, following a few simple examples through several method chapters rather than introducing a different example at each stage. Catalog no.

Tianhu Lei
Chapman & Hall/CRC Biostatistics Series
This book presents innovative approaches in Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis, which are relevant to a wide variety of applications, including medical imaging, cancer research, epidemiology, and bioinformatics. The covered topics include monotone-transformation techniques in parametric ROC analysis, ROC methods for combined and pooled biomarkers, Bayesian hierarchical transformation models, sequential designs and inferences in the ROC setting, predictive modeling, multireader ROC analysis, and free-response ROC (FROC) methodology.
Statistical investigation into technology not only provides a better understanding of the intrinsic features of the technology (analysis), but also leads to an improved design of the technology (synthesis). Physical principles and mathematical procedures of medical imaging technologies have been extensively studied during past decades. However, less work has been done on their statistical aspect. Filling this gap, this book provides a theoretical framework for statistical investigation into medical technologies. Rather than offer detailed descriptions of statistics of basic imaging protocols of x-ray CT and MRI, the book presents a method to conduct similar statistical investigations into more complicated imaging protocols.

William M. Haynes
An Introductory Textbook Rob Burgess
Science entrepreneurship has unique aspects when compared to many other businesses. Research scientists are fortunate because they are exposed to new ideas and breakthroughs before anyone else, and since they are usually the first to develop new technologies, they have the potential of being first to market. However, scientists typically are not trained to think of discoveries as potential business opportunities and many are lost even though they might have a significant impact on society. This book is designed to help chemistry and life scientists start their own businesses. For graduates, this book provides a background of new companies and how they operate. Full of examples, it is an excellent introduction to the process of successfully identifying new scientific discoveries with commercial potential and establishing businesses based on new technology.
