Book excerpt: In the future there is no disease. There is no war. There is no discontent. All citizens are complacent members of the Global Governance. But one summer is about to change everything. Keeva Tee just turned fifteen. She’s about to make the trip to Monarch Camp to be imprinted with her intended life partner. But in her happy, carefree life in the Ocean Community, she hears whispers about “anomalies”—citizens who can’t be imprinted. When Keeva arrives at Monarch Camp, her worst nightmare becomes a reality—she is an anomaly. She beings to doubt everything she’s ever believed. What if freedom and individuality have been sacrificed for security? When Keeva finds a warning carved under a bunk bed she begins to understand: nonconformity will be punished, dissent is not an option, insurgents will be destroyed.

Download or read book Severe Asthma written by Kian Fan Chung and published by European Respiratory Society. This book was released on 2019-06-01 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Severe asthma is a form of asthma that responds poorly to currently available medication, and its patients represent those with greatest unmet needs. In the last 10 years, substantial progress has been made in terms of understanding some of the mechanisms that drive severe asthma; there have also been concomitant advances in the recognition of specific molecular phenotypes. This ERS Monograph covers all aspects of severe asthma – epidemiology, diagnosis, mechanisms, treatment and management – but has a particular focus on recent understanding of mechanistic heterogeneity based on an analytic approach using various ‘omics platforms applied to clinically well-defined asthma cohorts. How these advances have led to improved management targets is also emphasised. This book brings together the clinical and scientific expertise of those from around the world who are collaborating to solve the problem of severe asthma.

Download or read book Teratogenic Mechanisms written by T.V.N. Persaud and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of birth defects has assumed an importance even greater now than in the past because mortality rates attributed to congenital anomalies have declined far less than those for other causes of death, such as infectious and nutritional diseases. It is estimated that as many as 50% of all pregnancies terminate as miscarriages. In the majority of cases this is the result of faulty development. Major congenital malformations are found in at least 2% of all liveborn infants, and 22% of all stillbirths and infant deaths are associated with severe congenital anomalies. Teratological studies of an experimental nature are neither ethical nor justifiable in humans. Numerous investigations have been carried out in laboratory animals and other experimental models in order to improve our understanding of abnormal intra-uterine development. In less than two decades the field of experimental teratology has advanced phenomenally. As a result of the wide range of information that is now accumulating, it has become possible to obtain an insight into the causes, mechanisms and prevention of birth defects. However, considerable work will be needed before these problems can be resolved. This book brings together some of the more recent and important research findings related to the mechanisms and pathogenesis of abnormal develop ment. It is not only a documentation of the latest experimental work, but it also points out future directions that seem productive and challenging.
Download or read book Animal Anomalies written by Lewis I. Held, Jr and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-18 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the offspring of humans and other animals are occasional individuals that are malformed in whole or in part. The most grossly abnormal of these have been referred to from ancient times as monsters, because their birth was thought to foretell doom; the less severely affected are usually known as anomalies. This volume digs deeply into the cellular and molecular processes of embryonic development that go awry in such exceptional situations. It focuses on the physical mechanisms of how genes instruct cells to build anatomy, as well as the underlying forces of evolution that shaped these mechanisms over eons of geologic time. The narrative is framed in a historical perspective that should help students trying to make sense of these complex subjects. Each chapter is written in the style of a Sherlock Holmes story, starting with the clues and ending with a solution to the mystery.

Download or read book Leptin and Leptin Antagonists written by Prof. Arieh Gertler and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2009-03-06 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discovery of leptin, the obese (ob) gene product which is not expressed as a functional protein in ob/ob mice, focused the scientific community's attention on its role as an anorexic hormone involved in the negative regulation of food intake. Almost 14 years after this breakthrough discovery and over 14,000 leptin-related publications later, leptin is now known to participate in a wide range of biological functions that include, in addition to its early envisaged function as an adipostat, glucose metabolism, glucocorticoid synthesis, CD4+ T-lymphocyte proliferation, cytokine secretion, phagocytosis, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis regulation, reproduction, cardiovascular pathology, bone formation, apoptosis and angiogenesis. In short, it is now well-documented that leptin acts like a cytokine hormone with many pleiotropic effects. Furthermore, in recent years, it has become more and more apparent that many of leptin's effects are acquired not only through its central action, but also through its systemic action on a peripheral level. This book focuses mainly on the relatively novel aspects of leptin's actions. Leptin's involvement in early postnatal imprinting has led to new insight into developmental programming. This highly novel aspect of leptin's action is reviewed extensively in the final chapter of this book by the Auckland group, Vickers, Krechowec, Gluckman and Breier. In the last five years, it has been shown that at least in rodents, leptin acts as an important neurotrophic factor promoting the early postnatal maturation of neural pathways within the hypothalamus. The authors review experimental evidence, originating largely from their own work, which shows that therapeutic intervention with leptin in the rodents' early postnatal life can potentially reverse or substantially ameliorate the consequences of developmental malprogramming, and that this effect is highly influenced by both gender and postnatal diet.
Download or read book Cultural Antagonism and the Crisis of Reality in Latin America written by Horacio Legrás and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most of the 20th century, Latin American literature and art have contested political and cultural projects of homogenization of a manifestly diverse continent. Cultural Antagonism and the Crisis of Reality in Twentieth-Century Latin America explores literary and humanist experimentations and questions of gender, race, and ethnicity as well as the contradictions of capitalist development that belie such homogenization by reconfiguring the sense of the real in Latin America. Covering four key geographical areas, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and the Andes, every chapter delves into a question that has been central to the humanities in the last 20 years: Indigenous world-views, gender, race, neo-liberalism and visual culture. Legrás illuminates these issues with a thorough consideration of the theoretical questions inherent to how new identities disrupt the imaginary stability of social formations.
Download or read book Calcium Antagonists written by T. Godfraind and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the importance of calcium (Ca2+) in the maintenance of cardiac contractility was recognized as early as 1880, the critical role of the ion in the contractile process in skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle has only been established within the last three decades. As the complexity of the pharmacological actions of the Ca2+ channel inhibitors grows, there is a continued need to further clarify the inhibitors, both chemically and functionally. This volume provides an update of the field based on the work presented at the 5th International Symposium on Calcium Antagonists: Pharmacology and Clinical Research. It reviews the current state of the growing area of molecular biology of Ca2+ channels. In the cardiovascular area, in addition to the well-established clinical uses of Ca2+ channel inhibitors, exciting new work pointing to an application in atherosclerosis is described. The book also includes important uses of Ca2+ antagonists in novel areas of interest such as the gastrointestinal tract, renal protection and multi-drug resistance.
