Research on antiviral drugs and their mode of action in infected cells. in animals and in man. has led to a better understanding of the molecular pro cesses involved in virus replication. Screeninq of large numbers of natural and semisynthetic compounds resulted in the characterization of certain sub stances that had a limited efficiency as antiviral druqs. A few chemically synthesized compounds were also found to be effective as antiviral agents in the chemotherapy of human virus diseases. A major difficulty in the develop ment of effective antiviral agents has been the lack of selectivity. and toxicity for uninfected cells. of drugs that effectively inhibited virus replication in vitro. Fu...
Although diagnosis always begins with a careful history and physical examination and a physician is obligated to consider more than the diseased organ, testing of lung function has become standard practice to confirm the diagnosis, evaluate the severity of respiratory impairment, assess the therapy response and follow-up patients with various cardio-respiratory disorders. Ventilation, diffusion, blood flow and control of breathing are the major components of respiration and one or more of these functional components can be affected by any disorder. Frequently, no single pulmonary function test.
This reference/text covers fundamentals of peptide and protein drug delivery, including such considerations as synthesis, physical chemistry and biochemistry, analysis, proteolytic and transport constraints, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics; bioavailability from routes of administration, detai
The Novartis Foundation Series is a popular collection of the proceedings from Novartis Foundation Symposia, in which groups of leading scientists from a range of topics across biology, chemistry and medicine assembled to present papers and discuss results. The Novartis Foundation, originally known as the Ciba Foundation, is well known to scientists and clinicians around the world.
Translational Neuroimmunology: Multiple Sclerosis provides an update on bench to bedside studies on Multiple Sclerosis as an autoimmune disease. Divided into twelve chapters, the book begins with an in-depth introduction to the neuroimmunology and immunopathology of multiple sclerosis. Sections also provide content on genetics and epigenetics, the microbiome, diagnosis, and treatment of multiple sclerosis. Finally, various precision treatments are covered. All information is presented in an accessible, practical format, making this volume a valuable resource for immunologists, neurologists and researchers in translational biomedical research. - Provides an introduction on multiple sclerosis ...
