      The Use of Radioautography in Investigating Protein Synthesis is a collection of papers that discusses the tracing of labeled proteins through photographic emulsion, particularly radioautography or autoradiography. The papers discuss proteins at the site of their synthesis, their subsequent migration through the cell, their secretions, and the formation of the basement lamella in salamanders. One paper outlines the primary aims in specimen preparation for electron microscope autoradiographic techniques and the procedures to achieve them. Another paper reports on migrating proteins (CNP) and nonmigrating proteins of the Amoeba proteus nucleus in which nonmigrating proteins are sedimentable by centrifugation in situ in the nucleus. One paper investigates the extent of protein synthesis for cell renewal in thoracic duct lymphocytes (TDL) or that for export or intracellular turnover. The protein synthesized by the large cell population in TDL is associated with mitosis and cell renewal. A major portion of that synthesized by the medium cells (80 per cent) and practically all of that produced by small cells are for purposes other than cell renewal. The collection can prove beneficial to biochemists, micro-biologists, bio-physicists, cytologists, histologists, pathologists, cellular researchers, and academicians involved in the study of cellular biology.

      Protein Misfolding in Neurodegenerative Diseases is a comprehensive review of proteome homeostasis in neurons, and in the brain. Beginning with an introduction on factors involved in the formation and aggregation of misfolded proteins, chapters then discuss the precise cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in these processes and their role in neurodegeneration and disease. Additional topics of focus include protein clearance mechanisms like protein quality control, disease-modifiers, molecular druggable targets, novel therapeutics, and emerging techniques that block or delay disease onset or progression. This volume is relevant for researchers working with neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and more.

      RNA-based Regulation in Human Health and Disease offers an in-depth exploration of RNA mediated genome regulation at different hierarchies. Beginning with multitude of canonical and non-canonical RNA populations, especially noncoding RNA in human physiology and evolution, further sections examine the various classes of RNAs (from small to large noncoding and extracellular RNAs), functional categories of RNA regulation (RNA-binding proteins, alternative splicing, RNA editing, antisense transcripts and RNA G-quadruplexes), dynamic aspects of RNA regulation modulating physiological homeostasis (aging), role of RNA beyond humans, tools and technologies for RNA research (wet lab and computational) and future prospects for RNA-based diagnostics and therapeutics. One of the core strengths of the book includes spectrum of disease-specific chapters from experts in the field highlighting RNA-based regulation in metabolic & neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, inflammatory disease, viral and bacterial infections. We hope the book helps researchers, students and clinicians appreciate the role of RNA-based regulation in genome regulation, aiding the development of useful biomarkers for prognosis, diagnosis, and novel RNA-based therapeutics.
