Download or read book Monoclonal Antibodies in Transplantation written by Lucienne Chatenoud and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-22 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experimental and clinical evidence presented in this book illustrates that antibodies expressing different specificities can be very effective in preventing or reversing established transplant rejection. Moreover, the data leads us to hope that the use of these new therapeutic agents may allow the induction of specific tolerance to transplant alloantigens which is the only means to avoid the major risks of sustained immunosuppression, namely an increased susceptibility to infection and tumor development. In this volume the editors combine contributions dealing with very practical aspects of the clinical use of monoclonal antibodies with a more general discussion on the developments one may foresee in the near future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De tout temps, l'homme a eu conscience de l'intérêt thérapeutique des toxines. Certaines toxines végétales depuis longtemps utilisées figurent encore dans la pharmacopée actuelle. Viennent s'y ajouter depuis peu des toxines microbiennes. Cependant le maniement des toxines natives ou à peine modifiées reste délicat tant est faible la marge entre les effets toxiques et l'efficacité thérapeutique. Comment, dans une perspective médicale, canaliser la puissance d'action et l'efficacité d'une toxine ? Connaître sa structure, comprendre son mécanisme d'action n'est pas suffisant : il faut aussi identifier sa cible privilégiée, autrement dit un récepteur cellulaire, faute de quoi l'entreprise apparemment chimérique d'un détournement de sa puissance et de sa spécificité reste aveugle. Ce cap est franchi, depuis un certain nombre d'années, et le développement des recherches sur les toxines axées sur la thérapeutique est devenu foisonnant. Voyez telle ou telle toxine protéique ternaire, avec ses trois domaines, de fixation sur un récepteur membranaire, de translocation qui lui permet de franchir la membrane cellulaire, et d'activité enzymatique qui va alors pouvoir s'exercer dans la cellule. Qu'on parvienne à dissocier chacun de ces trois domaines en leur conservant leurs propriétés, et des possibilités nouvelles d'utilisation thérapeutique vont s'ouvrir, presque à l'infini semble-t-il. Car chacun d'entre eux pourra être couplé à une molécule active bien ciblée, et leur efficacité sera même améliorée pour peu qu'on parvienne à conjuguer leur action. Qu'un récepteur, qu'une molécule, propres au métabolisme ou à la physiologie d'une cellule cancéreuse soient identifiés, et des toxines conjuguées à un ligand de ce récepteur, de cette molécule (ce peut être un anticorps) bloqueront les canaux ioniques ou exerceront leur effet cytolytique sur cette seule cellule, sans nuire aux cellules saines. Nous voilà dégagés de l'utopie, le contenu de cet ouvrage le prouve abondamment. Et même si la concrétisation des promesses reste délicate, le champ d'action est si vaste initialement qu'il ne saurait rester improductif : il ne l'est d'ailleurs déjà plus.
Download or read book Pharmacological Sciences Perspectives for Research and Therapy in the Late 1990s written by A. Claudio Cuello and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume arose from the scientific program of the XIIth International Congress of Pharmacology, held in Montreal, Canada, July 24-29, 1994. The scientific program included plenary lectures and symposia, in addition to poster presentations and colloquia. The abstracts of the Congress presentations were published as .supplement 1 of volume 72 by the Cana dian Journal of Physiology & Pharmacology. The Congress organizers sought a more expansive treatment of the Congress proceedings and appointed Dr. A. Claudio Cuello to coordinate preparation of the present volume; Dr. Brian Collier was chair of the scientific program committee and, thus, also collaborated on this work. The objective that we pursued was to produce a volume of reasonable size which would feature all of the plenary lectures and symposia from those authors who agreed to participate. To this end, we solicited mini reviews from plenary lecturers and asked symposia organizers to coordi nate a single short-review covering the individual topics within their event. Those who accepted this challenge are evident in this volume. We express our gratitude to these authors for doing so, and for exercising considerable ingenuity in completing their task within a reasonable time.

Download or read book Oeil et Maladies syst miques written by SÈVE Pascal, KODJIKIAN Laurent and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les maladies systémiques regroupent un cadre hétérogène de maladies (connectivites, vascularites, granulomatoses…) dont la pathogénie est caractérisée par une atteinte de plusieurs organes. Bien qu’il s’agisse pour la plupart de maladies orphelines, ces pathologies sont susceptibles d’intéresser tous les médecins du fait de leur polymorphisme clinique. L’atteinte ophtalmologique est fréquente dans bon nombre de ces maladies, principalement en rapport avec une atteinte inflammatoire ou vasculaire. Elle constitue souvent une clé pour le diagnostic et peut mettre en jeu le pronostic fonctionnel en raison du risque de cécité. La sémiologie oculaire des maladies systémiques et les moyens d’explorations ophtalmologiques sont souvent mal connus des internistes ou des spécialistes d’organes. Inversement, les maladies systémiques sont l’objet de nombreuses interrogations de la part des ophtalmologistes. De ce constat est né Œil et Maladies systémiques qui présente, en 50 chapitres : • les principaux syndromes ophtalmologiques et les moyens d’explorations, destinés principalement aux non-ophtalmologistes • l’expression ophtalmologique des maladies systémiques (connectivites et vascularites, certaines maladies infectieuses et autres affections multiviscérales) ainsi que les aspects diagnostiques, pronostiques et thérapeutiques. Le professeur Pascal Sève, interniste, et le professeur Laurent Kodjikian, ophtalmologiste, tous deux rattachés à hôpital de la Croix-Rousse à Lyon, ont coordonné l’ouvrage dont les rédacteurs sont issus des diverses spécialités concernées : ophtalmologistes et internistes bien sûr, mais également spécialistes d’organes tels que dermatologues, néphrologues, neurologues, etc., tous référents reconnus dans leur domaine d’expertise. Ce livre apporte des réponses utiles et précises aux praticiens confrontés aux atteintes ophtalmologiques des maladies systémiques. Il intéressera donc les ophtalmologistes, internistes, rhumatologues, neurologues, pneumologues et autres spécialistes d’organes.
Download or read book Treatment of Ovarian Cancer written by A. P. Bardos and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new volume presents the latest research on therapies for ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer is cancer that begins in the cells that constitute the ovaries, including surface epithelial cells, germ cells, and the sex cord-stromal cells. Cancer cells that metastasize from other organ sites to the ovary (most commonly breast or colon cancers) are not then considered ovarian cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, ovarian cancer accounts for 4 percent of all cancers among women and ranks fifth as a cause of their deaths from cancer. The American Cancer Society statistics for ovarian cancer estimate that there will be 25,400 new cases and 14,300 deaths in 2003. The death rate for this disease has not changed much in the last 50 years. Unfortunately, almost 70 percent of women with the common epithelial ovarian cancer are not diagnosed until the disease is advanced in stage -- i.e., has spread to the upper abdomen (stage III) or beyond (stage IV). The 5-year survival rate for these women is only 15 to 20 percent, whereas the 5-year survival rate for stage I disease patients approaches 90 percent and for stage II disease patients approaches 70 percent. Ovarian tumors are named according to the type of cells the tumor started from and whether the tumor is benign or cancerous. The three main types of ovarian tumors are: Epithelial Tumors, Germ Cell Tumors and Stromal Tumors.
Download or read book Treatment of Non infectious Uveitis written by Phoebe Lin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique, comprehensive book provides a much-needed reference on the treatment and management of non-infectious uveitis. Carefully designed, Treatment of Non-infectious Uveitis is the first book of its kind to provide an in-depth, clinically-relevant, expert-driven resource for ophthalmologists focusing on modalities of uveitis treatment, their mechanism of action, dosing, and side effects. Each chapter provides an introduction, mechanism of action, indication, dosage, side effects, and efficacy summaries from clinical trials and other published literature. Topics range from topical treatment, to locally administered therapy including drug-releasing implants, to systemic immunosuppressive treatments both tried and new, as well as surgical management, with each chapter highlighting important practice pearls as well as easy-reference dosing tables, side effects, and lab monitoring pertinent to the agents discussed. The book concludes with a discussion of novel approaches to the treatment of non-infectious uveitis, and special considerations when treating uveitis in the pediatric patient. The majority of patients with non-infectious uveitis are treated by comprehensive ophthalmologists, many of whom are less familiar with established treatment guidelines outlining the role of corticosteroids and immunomodulatory therapy. While the non-specialist, resident, or fellow is sure to benefit from this one-stop guide to uveitis treatment, retina and uveitis specialists alike will also appreciate the practice tips and thorough coverage of this expertly-written reference. Treatment of Non-infectious Uveitis is the ideal reference for all ophthalmologists who seek to improve their understanding of the causes of uveitis and learn how to best treat this condition.
