Описание: Prion diseases, also known as Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSEs), exist in both humans (Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)) and animals (scrapie, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), chronic wasting disease) and have the unique property of being infectious, sporadic or genetic in origin.Although the precise nature of the infectious agent responsible for TSEs is not definitely identified, it is now clearly demonstrated that a protein named PrP (for Prion Protein) plays a critical role in the transmission and pathogenesis of TSEs.This book provides the general description as well as the details of the techniques currently used for the study of prion diseases. Taking into account the pivotal role played by PrP it is not surprising that many Chapters of this book deal with the purification, the detection and the characterization of the different forms of this protein. In addition, in vitro, cellular and animal models specifically adapted to the study of TSEs, as well as bio-safety procedures are described. Each Chapter is written by scientists involved for many years in their respective domain of prion biology who give the best of their knowledge in this technical document. This volume is a very useful tool for any laboratory which recently decided to contribute to the study of TSEs as well as for teams already engaged in this field for many years but interested in extending their technical capacity toward new methods.Features:Purification of PrPC and the Pathological Isoform of Prion Protein (PrPsc or PrP-res)Animal Models of TSEsCell Culture Models of TSEsPrPsc ImmunohistochemistryWestern Immunoblotting TechniquesAntibody Production and ELISATSE Strain Typing in MiceBiosafety and Decontamination ProceduresCell-free Conversion of Prion ProteinsCytotoxicity of PrP PeptidesCyclic Amplification of Prion Protein MisfoldingPrion diseases, also known as Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSEs), exist in both humans (Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and animals (scrapie, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), chronic wasting disease) and have the unique property of being infectious, sporadic or genetic in origin.Although the precise nature of the infectious agent responsible for TSEs is not definitely identified, it is now clearly demonstrated that a protein named PrP (for Prion Protein) plays a critical role in the transmission and pathogenesis of TSEs.This book provides the general description as well as the details of the techniques currently used for the study of prion diseases.

Peter Jackson is one of the most acclaimed and influential contemporary film-makers. This is the first book to combine the examination of Jackson's career with an in-depth critical analysis of his films, thus providing readers with the most comprehensive study of the New Zealand film-maker's body of work. The first section of the book concentrates on Jackson's biography, surveying the evolution of his career from the director of cult slapstick movies such as Meet the Feebles (1989) and Braindead (1992) to an entrepreneur responsible for the foundation of companies such as Wingnut Films and Weta Workshop, and finally to producer and director of mega blockbuster projects such as The Lord of the Rings (2001-2003) and The Hobbit (2012-2013).
The book further examines Jackson's work at the level of production, reception and textuality, along with key collaborative relationships and significant themes associated with Jackson's films. The examination of Peter Jackson's work and career ties into significant academic debates, including the relationship between national cinema and global Hollywood; the global dispersal of film production; the relationship between film authorship and industrial modes of production; the impact of the creative industries on the construction of national identity; and new developments in film technology.

Italian retail designer Duccio Grassi (born 1954) is celebrated internationally for his ability to create mesmerizing store interiors: his clients include Max Mara in New York and Zara's Rome store, and his sensuously sculptural and luminous spaces are spread out over the centers of luxury fashion, from Tokyo, Dubai, Hong Kong and New York to Milan and London. This book explores Grassi's acclaimed, highly innovative contributions to the discipline of retail design, examining the qualities that have made him one of the foremost ambassadors of Italian elegance throughout the world. Testimonies from Sheikh Mana Bin Khalifa Al Maktoum, Luigi Maramotti and Mario Nanni underscore his stylistic language, and are buttressed by illustrations documenting his best-known projects across the world.
