Book excerpt: Over the past ten years, there has been an increasing recognition that syndromes of frontotemporal dysfunction (FTD) are a common occurrence in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Such syndromes may be present in as many as 60% of patients with ALS. Conversely, the occurrence of motor neuron dysfunction in patients with clinically pure frontotemporal dementia is increasingly recognized. This suggests that to some extent there are overlapping syndromes in which both ALS and FTD occur within the same individual. This volume summarizes the advances in our understanding of these two disorders, as well as the potential relationship between the two. Key topics include advances in our ability to clinically describe the frontotemporal syndromes, preclinical detection, neuroimaging, and genetics. The exploding field of new markers in neuropathology is examined, as is the role of new genetic mutations in DNA/RNA transport systems. This book is the essential reference text for this topic, and will be of interest to neurologists and neurological trainees with a clinical or research interest in the FTDs or ALS, neuropsychologists, neuropathologists, and researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of the book-Protein-Protein Interactions (PPIs) provides an overview of various protein-protein interactions (PPIs) that are involved in various human diseases including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, immune diseases, and inflammation. It summarizes the structure and ligand-based drug designing approaches for the discovery of small molecules that can inhibit PPIs in these diseases. The book discusses different computational and experimental tools that are used to determine the anomalous interactions underlying the diseases. Lastly, it also reviews the classical interactions between pathogens and hosts that are responsible for the pathophysiology of infectious diseases.

Book excerpt: Book 9 focuses on a new dementia type, LATE, mistaken as Alzheimer's disease until now.LATE stands for Limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy, the protein buildup responsible for this dementia. This book is organic, like the series, meaning we never consider our books as finished. Science evolves, which is why our books go through continuous updates. Since LATE is a new dementia classification, we expect continuous further information to emerge. Watch Amazon alerts for potential digital updates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses are an extremely rare group of inherited neurodegenerative diseases that primarily affect children. Core symptoms of these conditions typically include epilepsy, cognitive decline and visual failure. These diseases are so rare that professionals who come into contact with them need a consultative reference work that enables them to become expert, or identify who to contact for more details. Fully updated and revised, this second edition continues to be the definitive volume on this devastating group of disorders. Written by an international collection of authorities in the field, it provides invaluable advice on their diagnosis, patient care, and new treatments that are available. This new edition of the definitive reference text on the neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses will prove useful for clinicians, family physicians, research scientists, diagnostic laboratories, families affected by the disease as well as by workers in industry planning translational research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyclin Dependent Kinase 5 provides a comprehensive and up-to-date collection of reviews on the discovery, signaling mechanisms and functions of Cdk5, as well as the potential implication of Cdk5 in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Since the identification of this unique member of the Cdk family, Cdk5 has emerged as one of the most important signal transduction mediators in the development, maintenance and fine-tuning of neuronal functions and networking. Further studies have revealed that Cdk5 is also associated with the regulation of neuronal survival during both developmental stages and in neurodegenerative diseases. These observations indicate that precise control of Cdk5 is essential for the regulation of neuronal survival. The pivotal role Cdk5 appears to play in both the regulation of neuronal survival and synaptic functions thus raises the interesting possibility that Cdk5 inhibitors may serve as therapeutic treatment for a number of neurodegenerative diseases.
