The first part of the book provides a detailed introduction to the basic dynamic analysis of structures, serving as a foundation for later chapters on stochastic response analysis. This includes an extensive chapter on the finite element method. A careful introduction to stochastic modelling is provided, which includes the concepts: stochastic process, variance spectrum, random environmental processes, response spectrum, response statistics and short- and long-term extreme value models. The second part of the book offers detailed discussion of limit state design approaches, fatigue design methods, the equations of motion for dynamic structures and numerical solution techniques. The final chapter highlights methods for prediction of extreme values from measured data or data obtained by Monte Carlo simulation. 606 $aEstructures marines$2lemac 606 $aDināmica estructural$2lemac 606 $aProcessos estocāstics$2lemac 606 $aOffshore structures 606 $aStructural dynamics 606 $aStochastic processes 615 7$aEstructures marines 615 7$aDināmica estructural 615 7$aProcessos estocāstics 615 0$aOffshore structures. 615 0$aStructural dynamics. 615 0$aStochastic processes. 676 $a627/.980151923 686 $aTEC009000$2bisacsh 700 $aNæss$b Arvid$01716716 702 $aMoan$b Torgeir 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827768803321 996 $aStochastic dynamics of marine structures$94112224 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04722nam 2200469z- 450 001 9910345964303321 005 20210211 035 $a(CKB)4920000000094071 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/49977 035 $a(oapen)doab49977 035 $a(EXLCZ)994920000000094071 100 $a20202102d2019 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aImmune Checkpoint Molecules and Cancer Immunotherapy 210 $cFrontiers Media SA$d2019 215 $a1 online resource (197 p.) 225 1 $aFrontiers Research Topics 311 08$a2-88945-732-X 330 $aFor the faultless function of the immune system, tight regulation of immune cell activation, immuno-suppression and the strength and efficiency of the immune response is essential. Immune checkpoint (ICP) molecules can amplify or dampen signals that lead to the modulation of specific immune activities. Under physiological conditions, immune checkpoints are essential to prevent autoimmune manifestations and to preserve self-tolerance. They help modulate immune responses by either promoting or inhibiting T-cell activation. However, in the context of cancer, malignant cells can dysregulate the expression of immune checkpoint proteins on immune cells in order to suppress anti-tumor immune responses and to gain immune resistance. Moreover, tumor cells themselves can also express some checkpoints proteins, thereby enabling these cells to externally orchestrate immune regulatory mechanisms. Several recent studies have confirmed that the expression of immune checkpoints could be an important prognostic parameter for cancer development and for patient outcome. Therefore, cancer immunotherapy based on the modulation of immune checkpoint molecules alone, or in combination with conventional tumor therapy (chemo- or/and radiotherapy), is now in focus as a means of developing new therapeutic strategies for different types of cancer. The two well-known molecules - CTLA4 and PD-1 - serve as important examples of such checkpoint proteins of important therapeutic potential. Thus far, inhibitors of CTLA4 and PD-1 have been approved to treat only a limited number of malignancies (e.g. malignant Melanoma, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer). Many others are currently under investigation and the list of immune checkpoint molecules for potential therapeutic targeting is still growing. However, the clinical response to inhibitors of checkpoint molecules is not sufficient in all cases. Therefore, further studies are needed to improve our knowledge of such immunomodulatory proteins and their associated signaling pathways. Several key signaling pathways which are involved in the regulation of expression of checkpoint molecules in immune cells and in cancer cells have already been identified including MAPK, PI3K, NF-kB, JAKs and STATs. These (and future discovered) signaling pathways could give rise to the development of new strategies for modulating the expression of ICPs and thereby, improving anti-cancer immune responses. The main aim of the Research Topic is to collect novel findings from scientists involved in basic research on immune checkpoints as well as in translational studies investigating the use of checkpoint inhibtors in immunotherapy in experimental settings. We welcome the submission of Review, Mini-Review and Original Research articles that cover the following topics: 1. Molecular mechanisms underlying regulation of ICP expression in immune and/or cancer cells. 2. Characterization of signaling pathways downstream ICP molecules. 3. Cellular responses to ICP blockade. 4. Identification of new compounds interfering with ICP expression and/or signaling. 5. ICP-mediated interactions between cancer cells and immune cells. 6. Functional links between ICP and cytokines/chemokines. 7. Molecular mechanisms of ICP inhibition in the context of experimental cancer immunotherapy. 606 $aMedicine and Nursing$2bicssc 610 $acancer immunotherapy 610 $acheckpoint blockade 610 $aCTLA-4 (CD152) 610 $acytotoxic T lymphocytes 610 $aimmune checkpoint molecules 610 $aImmunosuppression 610 $aMetabolic checkpoints 610 $aPD-1 (CD279) 610 $aPDL1 610 $aTumor Microenvironment 615 7$aMedicine and Nursing 700 $aAlexandr V.
