Studies in Natural Products Chemistry: Bioactive Natural Products
(Part XII) is the latest in a series that covers the synthesis or
testing and recording of the medicinal properties of natural
products, providing cutting-edge accounts of the fascinating
developments in the isolation, structure elucidation, synthesis,
biosynthesis, and pharmacology of a diverse array of bioactive
natural products. Natural products in the plant and animal kingdom
offer a huge diversity of chemical structures that are the result
of biosynthetic processes that have been modulated over the
millennia through genetic effects. With the rapid developments in
spectroscopic techniques and accompanying advances in
high-throughput screening techniques, it has become possible to
quickly isolate and determine the structures and biological
activity of natural products, thus opening up exciting
opportunities in the field of new drug development to the
pharmaceutical industry.
Neuropsychopharmacology: A Tribute to Joseph T. Coyle is a new
volume from Advances in Pharmacology presenting reviews of recent
breakthroughs in glutamate pharmacology and a tribute to one of the
most influential neuroscientists of our times. With a variety of
chapters and the best authors in the field, the volume is an
essential resource for pharmacologists, immunologists, and
biochemists alike.
Nanobiomaterials in Drug Delivery: Applications of Nanobiomaterials
presents novel approaches regarding nanostructured drug delivery
systems, revealing the most investigated materials for the
development of particular nanobioshuttles. This book brings the
results of current research to reach those who wish to use this
knowledge in an applied setting, providing one coherent text, with
focused chapters and easily accessible information. At its core, it
is a collection of titles, bringing together many of the novel
applications these materials have in biology, also discussing the
advantages and disadvantages of each application and the
perspectives of the technologies based on these findings. At the
moment, there is no other comparable book series covering all the
subjects approached in this set of titles.
Computational Approaches for Novel Therapeutic and Diagnostic
Designing to Mitigate SARS-CoV2 Infection: Revolutionary Strategies
to Combat Pandemics compiles information about various
computational bioinformatic approaches that can help combat viral
infection. The book includes working knowledge of various molecular
docking and molecular dynamic simulation approaches that have been
exploited for drug repurposing and drug designing purpose. In
addition, it sheds light on reverse vaccinomics and
immunoinformatic approaches for vaccine designing against SARS-CoV2
infection. This book is an essential resource for researchers,
bioinformaticians, computational biologists, computational chemists
and pharmaceutical companies who are working on the development of
effective and specific therapeutic interventions and point-of-care
diagnostic devices using various computational approaches.
Neuroepidemiology covers the foundations of neuroepidemiological
research and the epidemiology of disorders primarily affecting the
nervous system, as well as those originating outside the nervous
system. The etiology of many important central nervous system
disorders remains elusive. Even with diseases where the key risk
determinants have been identified, better prevention and therapy is
needed to reduce high incidence and mortality. Although evolving
technologies for studying disease provide opportunities for such,
it is essential for researchers and clinicians to understand how
best to apply such technology in the context of carefully
characterized patient populations. By paying special attention to
methodological approaches, this volume prepares new investigators
from a variety of disciplines to conduct epidemiological studies in
order to discern the etiologic factors and underlying mechanisms
that influence the onset, progression, and recurrence of CNS
disorders and diseases. The book also provides current information
on methodological approaches for clinical neurologists seeking to
expand their knowledge in research.
Drug Metabolism in Diseases is a comprehensive reference devoted to
the current state of research on the impact of various disease
states on drug metabolism. The book contains valuable insights into
mechanistic effects and examples of how to accurately predict drug
metabolism during these different pathophysiological states. Each
chapter clearly presents the effects of changes in drug metabolism
and drug transporters on pharmacokinetics and disposition. This is
a unique and useful approach for all those involved in drug
discovery and development, and for clinicians and researchers in
drug metabolism, pharmacology, and clinical pharmacology.
Volumes in this widely revered series present comprehensive reviews
of drug substances and additional materials, with critical review
chapters that summarize information related to the characterization
of drug substances and excipients. This organizational structure
meets the needs of the pharmaceutical community and allows for the
development of a timely vehicle for publishing review materials on
this topic. The scope of the Profiles series encompasses review
articles and database compilations that fall within one of the
following six broad categories: Physical profiles of drug
substances and excipients; Analytical profiles of drug substances
and excipients; Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic profiles of
drug substances and excipients; Methodology related to the
characterization of drug substances and excipients; Methods of
chemical synthesis; and Reviews of the uses and applications for
individual drug substances, classes of drug substances, or
excipients.
Pharmacological Mechanisms and the Modulation of Pain, the newest
volume in the Advances in Pharmacology series, presents the
pharmacological mechanisms and the modulation of pain. With a
variety of chapters and the best authors in the field, this volume
is an essential resource for pharmacologists, immunologists, and
biochemists alike.
