Description

Molecular Chaperones in Neurodegenerative Diseases explores the roles of molecular chaperones in maintaining protein homeostasis and their involvement in the onset and progression of neurodegenerative disorders. The book highlights current research on chaperone-mediated mechanisms, disease pathology, and emerging therapeutic approaches targeting protein misfolding and aggregation.

Key features

  • Explores the role of molecular chaperones in the onset and progression of neurodegenerative diseases
  • Covers key mechanisms of protein folding, misfolding, aggregation, and proteostasis in the nervous system
  • Includes up-to-date experimental approaches and disease models used to study chaperone function in neurodegeneration

Readership

RD

Rossen Donev

Rossen Donev received his PhD degree in 1999 from the Institute of Molecular Biology, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. He did postdoctoral training at Imperial Cancer Research Fund, UK (renamed after the merger with Cancer Research Campaign to Cancer Research UK, London Research Institute) and Cardiff University. In 2007 he was awarded a New Investigator Grant Award from the Medical Research Council (UK) to establish himself as an independent Principle Investigator. In 2010 Dr. Donev was appointed Senior Lecturer at Swansea University. In 2016 Dr. Donev joined MicroPharm Ltd (UK) where currently he is Head of Research. He has published more than 60 research papers, chaired scientific meetings and given invited plenary talks. Rossen Donev has consulted on projects related to development of treatments for neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer therapies. He serves as Editor-in-Chief of the Advances in Protein Chemistry and Structural Biology and on editorial board of several other journals. His research interests include signaling pathways involved in neuropsychiatric disorders and tumor escape from the immune system, and development of therapeutic strategies for their treatment. More recently he has focused on development of immunotherapeutics for non-systemic applications.
