Disturbance in the Neuropathy Target Esterase Pathway Causes Degenerative Neurologic Disease
2611 – Motor neuron disorders include amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia, hereditary spastic paraplegia, primary lateral sclerosis, progressive pseudobulbar palsy, progressive muscular atrophy, progressive bulbar palsy, and postpolio syndrome. Symptoms characteristic for a specific type of motor neuron disorder vary according to the part of the nervous system... Read More
Microtubular Materials and Material/Cell Constructs
1992 – Tissue engineering aims at creating biological alternatives to harvested tissues and organs for transplantation. Scaffolding plays a crucial role in the 3-dimensional neo tissue formation. Synthetic biodegradable polymers are attractive candidates for scaffolding fabrication because they do not carry the risk of pathogen transmission and immuno-rejection, and because they degrade and...

Compositions and Methods Useful in Prophylaxis and Treatment Conditions Related to Oxidative Damage, Endotoxemia and Chemical Toxicity
1855 – Endotoxic shock is a condition, provoked by the release of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the outer membrane of most gram negative bacteria (e.g., Escherichia coli; Salmonella tymphimurium). One example of a condition involving Endotoxic shock is sepsis. Sepsis is a systemic reaction characterized by arterial hypotension, metabolic acidosis, decreased systemic vascular resistance,...
