    Description / Table of Contents: Successful Vaccines -- Immunogenicity and Immunodominance in Antibody Responses -- Immunogen Design -- Adjuvants -- Tools to screen vaccines -- Targeting glycans on human pathogens for vaccine design -- BnAbs and highly antigenically variable pathogens.
    Abstract: Vaccines against antigenically stable pathogens, or pathogens that only exist in a limited number of serotypes, have been very successful in the past and have drastically decreased the incidence and lethality of many diseases. However, when it comes to highly variable pathogens or viruses that exist in multiple serotypes, the traditional methods for vaccine development have reached their limits. This volume highlights the development of vaccines against such challenging pathogens. Novel approaches for immunogen design, including structure-guided vaccine development and vaccines targeting glycans, as well as adjuvants and animal models used for testing possible vaccine candidates are outlined and discussed in detail. Given its scope, the book will appeal to scientists in the fields of infectious diseases, microbiology and medicine. .

    Abstract: This book addresses hot issues in the research and management of difficult-to-treat medical disorders that are commonly encountered, but for which the underlying mechanisms are often unknown. These include the adverse effects of hemodialysis and its biocompatibility in chronic kidney insufficiency, particularly related to malnutrition and inflammation, or the vulnerability of cancer patients to bacterial meningitis, the infection that remains underdiagnosed due to limited expression of symptoms. The book also covers other key topics, such as the psychological care of lung cancer patients; difficulties in the diagnosis of diffuse axonal injury in traumatic brain injury – a disorder with a poor prognosis and high mortality rate; and the virological aspects of seasonal influenza epidemic outbreaks – a perennial modern scourge. Further, it addresses recent developments in targeted drug delivery from titanium implants and a novel integrated thermal approach to rehabilitation of neurodegeneration-related disabilities. Featuring the latest interdisciplinary trends in biomedicine, this book connects research, theory and practice to help alleviate suffering caused by a variety of diseases. It is a resource for medical professionals, including academics, practitioners and all allied healthcare workers.

    Description / Table of Contents: Part I What is Molecular Hydrogen Medicine? -- Chapter 1 The power of hydrogen molecules uncovered -- Chapter 2 Development of Molecular Hydrogen Medicine -- Chapter 3 From the front-line of research – Interviews -- Chapter 4 Physiological effects of the hydrogen molecule -- Chapter 5 Some fundamental properties of hydrogen and water -- Chapter 6 Functions of heavy water in living organisms -- Chapter 7 The future of Molecular Hydrogen Medicine -- Part II Tracing the History of Life and Hydrogen -- Chapter 8 The genesis of life in the world of hydrogen, Eons ago- Chapter 9 Drastic changes of living organisms in the oxygen age -- Chapter 10 Since the appearance of humans.
    Abstract: This book provides a comprehensive account of the current status of molecular hydrogen medicine, a young field that emerged with the discovery that inhalation of hydrogen gas leads to the elimination of harmful reactive oxygen species in rats. Various physiologic effects have since been demonstrated, and possible medical applications identified. Numerous clinical projects have now been undertaken, yielding startling results. Despite this, molecular hydrogen medicine remains underappreciated among the medical community at large. The author aims to rectify this situation by fairly but critically evaluating the potential clinical benefits based on the latest scientific research. In addition, the observed physiological effects of hydrogen gas are considered within the broad context of the evolution of life on earth, offering new perspectives and helping to place molecular hydrogen medicine legitimately within the framework of life sciences. Written in an accessible manner, the book will be of value to students, researchers, clinicians, and the general public.

    Description / Table of Contents: Chapter 1 General Thinking About Inflammation -- Chapter 2 Inflammation from the Standpoint of Leukocytes -- Chapter 3 Vessels and Coagulation -- Chapter 4 Sterile Inflammation -- Chapter 5 Issue of Self and Non-self -- Chapter 6 Extension of Endogenous Field -- Chapter 7 Evidence for Existence of Endogenous TLR4 Ligands -- Chapter 8 Autoinflammatory Disorders -- Chapter 9 Cancer in General -- Chapter 10 Basic Research -- Chapter 11 Tumor Microenvironment -- Chapter 12 Whole-Body Matter -- Chapter 13 Premetastatic Microenvironment -- Chapter 14 What Is Homeostasis? -- Chapter 15 Explanation of Metastasis by Homeostatic Inflammation -- Chapter 16 Therapeutic Potential.
    Abstract: This book, now in a thoroughly revised and updated second edition, provides the latest information on cancer metastasis from the perspective of inflammation and presents new ideas on the complicated mechanisms of metastasis and potential therapeutic targets. Key features include discussion of mechanisms recently identified to be involved in the resolution phase of inflammation, presentation of the latest evidence regarding the roles of endogenous TLR4 ligands in metastasis, and thorough explanation of the concept of homeostatic inflammation and current understanding of the significance of its dysregulation for metastasis. Structure-based thinking is another important element of the book, and it is proposed that inflammation forms a functional triangle with angiogenesis and coagulation, at the center of which cancer is located. Examples of the many additional specific topics covered in this edition include the functional involvement of new types of RNA in cancer, the insights offered by recent advances in bioinformatics, and the potential of a casein kinase 1α inhibitor in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. The book will be a valuable update and resource for both experienced and younger researchers. Homeostasis, originated from an idea of internal milieu by Claude Bernard, is eventually maintained by endogenous elements. The essential features of inflammation are leukocyte mobilization and increased vascular permeability, which could take place in many homeostatic or physiological conditions at low levels. Homeostatic inflammation is a concept to explain pathological settings such as metastasis in which irrespective of its level those inflammatory features are misused with endogenous molecules (see Chap. 14,15). As inflammation comprises many biological fields, targeting a single molecule for a disease could potentially make a therapeutic contribution to other diseases. For example, one focus is applied here to the roles of calprotectin in lung metastasis, which is implicated in psychiatric disorders and COVID-19 as shown by recent evidence.

    Abstract: The aim of this volume is to summarize novel findings on the function, pathophysiology, and regulation of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and on novel concepts of their pharmacological modulation. Impressive insights into the role of channel function and regulation have come from Ca2+ channelopathies affecting the pore-forming as well as accessory subunits and channel-interacting proteins. Moreover, the long-sought molecular basis for key regulatory pathways have been discovered as well as exciting concepts of their subtype-selective pharmacological modulation.
