Book Synopsis The Pineal Gland and its Endocrine Role by : J. Axelrod
Download or read book The Pineal Gland and its Endocrine Role written by J. Axelrod and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pineal gland has been a subject of interest and speculation for more than 2000 years. Greek anatomists were impressed by the ob servation that the pineal gland is an unpaired structure and they believed that it regulated the flow of thoughts. The philosopher Descartes proposed an important role for this organ in brain function. At the beginning of the 20th century experiments by several investi gators indicated that the pineal influenced sexual function and skin pigmentation and was also responsive to light signals. With the iso lation of melatonin from bovine pineal glands by Lerner and cowork ers in 1958 the modern era of pineal research was initiated. Within a few years the pathway for the biosynthesis of melatonin in the pineal was elucidated. Soon thereafter it was shown that the formation of melatonin was influenced by environmental lighting. Ana tomists found that the pineal was innervated by sympathetic nerves and that the gland had photoreceptor elements. It was also shown that the gonads were influenced by light via the pineal gland. Research on the pineal gland became of increasing interest to anatomists, bioche mists, pharmacologists and endocrinologists. With the expanding know ledge concerning the function of the pineal gland contributed by the wide variety of disciplines, it was thought that a study workshop would be timely.

Book Synopsis Identification of Ligand Binding Site and Protein-Protein Interaction Area by : Irena Roterman-Konieczna
Download or read book Identification of Ligand Binding Site and Protein-Protein Interaction Area written by Irena Roterman-Konieczna and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-19 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a review of the latest numerical techniques used to identify ligand binding and protein complexation sites. It should be noted that there are many other theoretical studies devoted to predicting the activity of specific proteins and that useful protein data can be found in numerous databases. The aim of advanced computational techniques is to identify the active sites in specific proteins and moreover to suggest a generalized mechanism by which such protein-ligand (or protein-protein) interactions can be effected. Developing such tools is not an easy task – it requires extensive expertise in the area of molecular biology as well as a firm grasp of numerical modeling methods. Thus, it is often viewed as a prime candidate for interdisciplinary research.

Book Synopsis Peptides in Oncology I by : K. Höffken
Download or read book Peptides in Oncology I written by K. Höffken and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hormonal treatment of malignant diseases has been used for quite some years now, and progress in this field is still being made at a steady pace. The detection of new endocrine feed back loops and the availability of new classes of hormonal agents made hormonal intervention with predictable outcome possible. Besides the intellectual challenge of modulating the hormone system, an important aspect of recent research on hormones and cancer is the reduction of treatment-related morbidity achieved with the new hormonal strategies. Thus, controlled intervention in the hypothalamic-gonadotropic axis is increasingly apt to replace surgical removal of the relevant glands, i. e. , the pituitary gland or the gonads. In the same way as, for example, aromatase inhibitors are being used as a substitute for adrenalectomy. The concept that secretion of hypothalamic gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), pituitary gonadotropins, and sex steroids are regulated via negative and positive feedback loops is based on the pioneering work of Hohlweg and Harris some 40 years ago. In 1971, a breakthrough was achieved with the isolation, structural analysis, and synthesis of the luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LH-RH), or GnRH as it is now more appropriately termed, since it provokes the secretion of both gonadotropins, LH and FSH, and since then the progress made in this area of research has been remarkable. Both ago nists and antagonists of LH-RH have been synthesized and extensively studied in preclinical and clinical settings.
Book Synopsis Amorphous and Liquid Materials by : E. Lüscher
Download or read book Amorphous and Liquid Materials written by E. Lüscher and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Six years passed by since the NATO ASI on "Liquid and Amorphous Metals" was held in Zwiesel, Germany, in September 1979. The present one is the second NATO School devoted to research on disordered condensed matter, mainly liquid and amorphous metals. This time the title contains the word "materials" to explicitely include those aspects of the glassy state of insulators either shared with metallic glasses - e.g. the glass tran sition - or on the border line with metallic systems - e.g. the metal non-metal transition. The long period which purposely elapsed between the two Institutes indi cates the intention not to have "just another conference", but to review the state of affairs in the field with a somewhat more durable scope. This is especially important to help basic research to bridge towards applica tions and to introduce young researchers in this field. In fact, while the understanding of these materials and their properties is a tremendous challenge for experimental and theoretical physicists, glassy substances offer an enormous potential in-the development of new materials for tech nical applications. To this end, the Institute has brought together insiders and peers from allover the world to discuss basic principles and latest results and to help correlate future research effort. Another important aim was to intro duce newcomers to the field.

Book Synopsis Carbonic Anhydrase: Mechanism, Regulation, Links to Disease, and Industrial Applications by : Susan C. Frost
Download or read book Carbonic Anhydrase: Mechanism, Regulation, Links to Disease, and Industrial Applications written by Susan C. Frost and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of carbonic anhydrase has spanned multiple generations of scientists. Carbonic anhydrase was first discovered in 1932 by Meldrum and Roughton. Inhibition by sulfanilamide was shown in 1940 by Mann and Keilin. Even Hans Krebs contributed to early studies with a paper in 1948 showing the relationship of 25 different sulfonamides to CA inhibition. It was he who pointed out the importance of both the charged and uncharged character of these compounds for physiological experiments. The field of study that focuses on carbonic anhydrase (CA) has exploded in recent years with the identification of new families and isoforms. The CAs are metalloenzymes which are comprised of 5 structurally different families: the alpha, beta, gamma, and delta, and epsilon classes. The alpha class is found primarily in animals with several isoforms associated with human disease. The beta CAs are expressed primarily in plants and are the most divergent. The gamma CAs are the most ancient. These are structurally related to the beta CAs, but have a mechanism more similar to the alpha CAs. The delta CAs are found in marine algae and diflagellates. The epsilon class is found in prokaryotes in which it is part of the carboxysome shell perhaps supplying RuBisCO with CO2 for carbon fixation. With the excitement surrounding the discovery of disease-related CAs, scientists have redoubled their efforts to better understand structure-function relationships, to design high affinity, isotype-specific inhibitors, and to delineate signaling systems that play regulatory roles over expression and activity. We have designed the book to cover basic information of mechanism, structure, and function of the CA families. The authors included in this book bring to light the newest data with regard to the role of CA in physiology and pathology, across phylums, and in unique environmental niches.
