Aggregates of the TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43), are hallmark features of the neurodegenerative diseases Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), with overlapping clinical, genetic and pathological features. TDP-43 and Neurodegeneration: From Bench to Bedside summarizes new findings in TDP-43 pathobiology and proteinopathies. The book summarizes TDP-43's structure, function, biology, misfolding, aggregation, pathogenesis and therapeutics. It includes autophagy-mediated therapy, role of stress granule, novel genetic, cell culture-based models, systems biology…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Aggregates of the TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43), are hallmark features of the neurodegenerative diseases Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), with overlapping clinical, genetic and pathological features. TDP-43 and Neurodegeneration: From Bench to Bedside summarizes new findings in TDP-43 pathobiology and proteinopathies. The book summarizes TDP-43's structure, function, biology, misfolding, aggregation, pathogenesis and therapeutics. It includes autophagy-mediated therapy, role of stress granule, novel genetic, cell culture-based models, systems biology for precision medicine, development of stem cells and mechanism-based therapies that can target ALS and other related neurodegenerative diseases. This book is written for neuroscientists, neurologists, clinicians, advanced graduate students, drug discovery researchers, as well as cellular and molecular biologists involved in ALS, motor neuron disease (MND) and other neurodegenerative disorders.
Autorenporträt
Vijay Kumar, Ph.D. has been Assistant Professor in Amity University, since 2018. He obtained his PhD in Biophysics from All India Institute of Medical sciences, New Delhi, India and did his Postdoctoral training from the university of Massachusetts Medical school, Massachusetts, USA. His postdoctoral research was focused on folding and aggregation studies of proteins, SOD1 and TDP-43 involved in motor neuron disease, ALS and FTD. Back to India, he worked as a Principal Investigator under DST-SERB Young Scientist Scheme in Jamia Millia Islamia (A central university), New Delhi. His present research interests focus on the area of folding, misfolding and aggregation of proteins and the role of toxic RNA species involved in the Neurodegenerative Diseases. Dr. Kumar is a member of the Protein Society, Indian Biophysical Society (IBS), Indian Academy of Neurosciences (IAN), and the International society for Neurochemistry (ISN). He had a Junior Research Fellowship/Senior Research fellow

ship (SRF) from Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), New Delhi, India and a DAAD Fellowship , Germany.
