Abstract

This reference work is strong informative about the role of the gut microbiome in organism metabolism and fully discusses the relationship between gut alterations and/or gut microbiome-derived metabolites and the pathogenesis of many diseases, as well as recent advances in clinical applications of microbiome and microbial effector molecules. It clearly shows how the microbiome research is a growing field in molecular and clinical sciences, due to technical advances based on high throughput genetic sequencing technologies and omics analyses that empower systems biology-based methods for precision health monitoring and treatment. It will help in understanding that high diversity of the microbial communities in the gut is important to preserve health and microbiome alterations, not only in nutrition associated diseases like obesity and diabetes, but also in many chronic inflammatory, cardiovascular, oncological and neurological disorders. Written by renown experts in the field, this reference work is intended for clinicians, residents, specialists and physicians involved in the diagnosis and treatment of affected patients. It is published as part of the SpringerReference program, which provides access to live editions constantly updated through a dynamic peer-review publishing process.

Abstract

Nicolas Sundqvist's dissertation, 'Mathematical Modelling of Cerebral Metabolism,' explores the complex interactions between neuronal activity, energy metabolism, and cerebral blood flow (CBF). Utilizing mathematical modelling and systems biology, the work integrates diverse biological data to simulate and predict neurovascular interactions under various conditions. Key topics include the development of mechanistic models to link neurovascular coupling (NVC) with metabolism, the dynamics of ion channel kinetics, and the influence of inhibitory neurons on CBF. The thesis also delves into metabolic flux analysis (MFA) using 13C, providing insights into metabolic pathways and their implications for neurological disorders. This comprehensive study aims to enhance understanding of cerebral metabolism and its critical role in brain function.

Abstract

This book reviews the potential of metallodrugs against different cancer. It summarizes the classification of metal-based anti-cancer drugs, their plausible biochemical and mechanistic pathways, combining drug strategies for hitting multiple therapeutic targets at the intracellular level, and advanced drug delivery strategies. The book covers the metallodrugs for the efficacious treatment of diverse cancerous strains and recent advances in drug delivery strategies that are used for developing these metal-based therapeutics as potent anticancer agents in vitro and in vivo. The book also covers different biophysical and analytical techniques for studying metal-ligand and metal-macromolecular interactions. The book further presents the recent examples of metallomics studies on the different types of cell death induced by metal-based anticancer drugs, especially on the three major forms of programmed cell death (PCD) in mammalian cells: apoptosis, autophagy, and regulated necrosis, also called necroptosis. Lastly, the book explores the modulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by metallodrugs.

Abstract

This book provides new knowledge about the nutrition and metabolism, as well as the roles of nutrients in the immunity, health, and management of companion animals (dogs and cats). The domestic dog (facultative carnivore) and the domestic cat (obligate carnivore) have evolved differentially in their digestive tract, nutrition, metabolism, chemical sensing, and feeding behavior. These animals have been human companions for at least 12,000 and 9,000 years, respectively, and continue to contribute to the mental health and well-being of children, adolescents, and adults. Both dogs and cats have become increasingly popular in many countries and worldwide over the past decades. Comprehensive update about how the animals utilize dietary nutrients for optimum growth, development, and health is beneficial for their owners, as well as students and researchers. Chapter 4: Characteristics of Nutrition and Metabolism in Dogs and Cats is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.

Abstract

This book is a comprehensive exploration of the science and clinical applications of fasting, with a particular focus on its effects on body weight and metabolic disease risk factors. It delves into various fasting methods, including time-restricted eating, intermittent fasting, alternate day fasting, and periodic fasting. The key concepts explored in this book include the physiological and cellular adaptations to different types of fasting, their impact on body weight and metabolic health, and their potential role in longevity, aging and disease prevention. The book addresses critical questions such as: What are the safety and efficacy of time-restricted eating? How does alternate day fasting affect body weight and metabolic disease risk factors? What are the evolutionary perspectives explaining the clinical benefits of periodic fasting? And how effective is periodic fasting in treating human chronic diseases? This book is aimed at healthcare professionals, researchers, nutritionists, and anyone interested in understanding the science behind fasting. Readers with a scientific or professional background will appreciate the rigorous research and clinical studies presented in this book. They will learn about the latest findings in this field and gain a deeper understanding of how different types of fasting can impact health, wellbeing and aging.
