This reference presents cutting-edge basic and clinical research on all forms of interferon (IFN) involvement in the management of multiple sclerosis (MS)-detailing topics from IFN-receptor molecular interactions to synergy and interference with other agents such as cytotoxic drugs and chemotherapy.
At the present time, the laboratory mouse has become a central tool for skeletal studies, mainly because of the extensive use of genetic manipulations in this species.
Deconditioning is an integrated physiological response of the body to a reduction in metabolic rate, that is, to a reduction in energy use or in exercise level.
