Notă biografică
Dr. Akhlaq A. Farooqui is a leader in the field of signal transduction, brain phospholipases A2, bioactive ether lipid metabolism, polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism, glycerophospholipid-, sphingolipid-, and cholesterol-derived lipid mediators, and glutamate-induced neurotoxicity. Dr. Farooqui has authored six monographs: Glycerophospholipids in Brain: Phospholipase A2 in Neurological Disorders (2007); Neurochemical Aspects of Excitotoxicity (2008); Metabolism and Functions of Bioactive Ether Lipids in Brain (2008); and Hot Topics in Neural Membrane Lipidology (2009); Beneficial Effects of Fish Oil in Human Brain (2009); and Neurochemical Aspects of Neurotraumatic and Neurodegenerative Diseases (2010). All monographs are published by Springer, New York. In addition, Dr. Akhlaq A. Farooqui has edited 4 books (Biogenic Amines: Pharmacological, Neurochemical and Molecular Aspects in the CNS (2010) Nova Science Publisher, Hauppauge, N.Y, Molecular Aspects of Neurodegeneration and Neuroprotection, Bentham Science Publishers Ltd (2011); Phytotherapeutics and Human Health: Molecular and pharmacological Aspects, Nova Science Publisher, Hauppauge, N.Y In Press (2011) and Molecular Aspects of Oxidative Stress on Cell Signaling in Vertebrates and Invertebrates, Wiley Blackwell Publishing Company, New York in press, 2011).
Textul de pe ultima copertă
Lipid mediators are chemical messengers that are formed in response to cell stimulation or injury from membrane phospholipids, sphingolipid, and cholesterol. They play important roles in internal and external communication and modulate cellular responses such as the growth arrest, differentiation, adhesion, and migration. Lipid mediators of arachidonic acid (ARA) metabolism include prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxanes, lipoxins, whereas lipid mediators of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) metabolism are resolvins, protectins, neuroprotectins, and maresins. The non-enzymic lipid mediators of ARA and DHA metabolism include isoprostanes, neuroprostanes, isoketals, neuroketals, isofurans, neurofurans, 4-hydroxynonenal, and 4-hydroxyhexanal. Ceramide, ceramide 1-phosphate, sphingosine, and sphingosine 1-phosphate are lipid mediators of sphingolipid metabolism. These mediators are closely associated with apoptotic cell death, cell proliferation, cell migration, and survival. Cholesterol-derived mediators include 24-hydroxycholesterol, 25-hydroxycholesterol, 27-hydroxycholesterol, and 22-hydroxycholesterol. These mediators act as ligands of liver X receptors, transcription factors with key roles in lipid metabolism. Under normal conditions, low levels of lipid mediators are needed for signal transduction, gene expression, and neural cell proliferation and differentiation, but high levels of enzymic and non-enzymic lipid mediators of glycerophospholipid, sphingolipid, and cholesterol
metabolism produce neurodegeneration through the induction of oxidative stress, neuroinflammation and synaptic dysfunction.
Lipid Mediators and Their Metabolism in the Brain presents readers with cutting edge and comprehensive information not only on the synthesis and degradation of glycerophospholipid-, sphingolipid-, and cholesterol-derived lipid mediators, but also their involvement in neurological disorders. It is hoped that this monograph will be useful not onlyto postgraduate student and their teachers, but also to research scientists and physicians, who are curious about the generation and roles of lipid mediators in the brain.

Caracteristici
Presents readers with cutting edge and comprehensive information on lipid mediators in a manner that is useful not only to students and teachers, but also to researchers and physicians. Provides a comprehensive description of glycerophospholipid, sphingolipid, and cholesterol-derived mediators, their interactions with each others in normal brain and in brain tissue from neurological disorders. The presentation of this monograph is based on uniformity and logical progression of subject from one topic to another with an extensive bibliography. Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
