  • Oxidative Stress and Free Radical Damage in Neurology

    Edited by Natan Gadoth, Hans Hilmar Göbel ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The role of free radicals and oxidative stress in neurological disorders has only recently been recognized, leaving clinical neurologists to seek in vain for information on the subject even in major textbooks. What published information there is may consist of brief reminders of the possible association of superoxidase dismutase with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and nitrous oxide with ...

  • Cell Polarity and Subcellular RNA Localization

    Edited by Dietmar Richter ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Selective cytoplasmic organelle and protein targeting has long been thought to constitute the sole determinant of cell polarity and complexity. This view has been changed, however, by the discovery of differential subcellular RNA distribution patterns. Over the past decade it has become clear that selective mRNA sorting and translation contributes to an accumulation of cognate proteins at discrete ... Read more

  • DJ-1/PARK7 Protein

    Parkinson’s Disease, Cancer and Oxidative Stress-Induced Diseases

    Edited by Hiroyoshi Ariga, Sanae M. M. Iguchi-Ariga ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book reviews the functions and roles of DJ-1 in various oxidative stress-related diseases and applications of DJ-1 and its binding compounds to the diseases. The DJ-1 gene was first found to be a novel oncogene in 1997 and later, in 2003, also found to be a causative gene for a familial form of Parkinson’s disease (PD), park7. The DJ-1 gene is therefore the first gene discovered that is known ... Read more
