ATP: From Neurotransmission to Cancer Therapy delivers a comprehensive discussion of extracellular ATP biology and its communication role in both homeostasis and pathologic states. It explores the function of ATP across the nervous, sensory, musculoskeletal, cutaneous cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, urinary, reproductive, exocrine, haematopoietic and immune systems. The book considers ATP in the context of various disease states, including cardiovascular, respiratory, psychiatric, inflammatory and neurodegenerative disorders, as well as pain and sensory disorders, infectious diseases, and cancer. ATP in humans is explored alongside other species, including rodents, fish, and plants. This is the latest volume in the “Molecular Mediators in Health and Disease” series. With contributions from specialists across pharmacology, physiology, biophysics, biochemistry, immunology, anatomy, molecular biology, therapeutics, and other critical fields, this volume provides a broad and detailed overview of ATP which will be helpful to researchers working in these areas and beyond.Considers extracellular ATP across various organs including the lung, heart, liver and kidneysInvestigates ATP across a range of conditions such as age-related disorders, cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease and psychiatric disordersExplores the biochemistry and molecular biology of extracellular ATP signallingLooks at the history of ATP and its discovery in addition to future perspectives

This book seeks to provide an overview of traditional and emerging protocols used to examine the aetiology, mechanisms and pathophysiology of GVHD, as well as those used to identify novel biomarkers and to test existing and new therapies to prevent or treat GVHD. Written in the format of the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, each chapter includes an introduction to the topic, lists necessary materials and reagents, includes tips on troubleshooting and known pitfalls, and step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols.Authoritative and cutting-edge, Graft-Versus-Host Disease: Methods and Protocols aims to serve as a useful resource for current and future researchers in these and other areas of health and disease.
