This book describes the authorΓÇÖs work on the development of sequence-specific DNA binders for the therapy of mitochondrial diseases. In the first chapter, the author provides a detailed background of pyrroleΓÇôimidazole polyamides (PIPs) and mitochondrial disease research followed by chapters presenting the author''s own research and discoveries. Firstly, the developed compounds called MITO-PIPs, which recognize specific sequences in mitochondrial DNA, are presented. The following chapter demonstrates how, by introducing a DNA alkylating reagent into a MITO-PIP that recognizes the adjacent sequence to a target mutation, the copy number of mutated mitochondrial DNA was successfully reduced in live cells. Furthermore, because nuclear DNA is another important target for treating mitochondrial diseases, the author demonstrated that tri-arginine vectors can enhance nuclear uptake of PIPs and improve their biological activity in cells.This work will attract readersΓÇÖ interest because it paves the way for a transgene-free chemical gene therapy for mitochondrial diseases. The book includes a detailed description of experimental procedures, especially compound synthesis. This description helps readers to have a clear image of the authorΓÇÖs studies and to perform similar and extended studies themselves.

This book gives a rigorous and up-to-date study of the various AI and machine learning algorithms for resolving environmental challenges associated with blasting. A small amount of explosive energy is only used during blasting to fracture rock in order to achieve the appropriate fragmentation, throw, and development of muck pile.

The common cavity deformity (CCD) of the inner ear is characterized by cochlea and vestibule forming a single cavity. This book describes the embryology of CCD, preoperative auditory, balance and vestibular evaluation, and electrophysiology and radiology aspect for CCD.

This book highlights a timely and accurate insight at the endeavour of the bioinformatics and genomics clinicians from industry and academia to address the societal needs. The contents of the book unearth the lacuna between the medication and treatment in the current preventive medicinal and pharmaceutical system. It contains chapters prepared by experts in life sciences along with data scientists for examining the circumstances of health care system for the next decade. It also highlights the automated processes for analyzing data in clinical trial research, specifically for drug development. Additionally, the data science solutions provided in this book help pharmaceutical companies to improve on what had historically been manual, costly and laborious process for cross-referencing research in clinical trials on drug development, while laying the groundwork for use with a full range of other drugs for the conditions ranging from tuberculosis, to diabetes, to heart attacks and many others.

This book draws on both in and out of school literacy practices with teachers and families to enhance the numeracy of early learners. It provides highly illustrative exemplars, targeted for learners up to approximately eight years of age whose home language differs from the language of instruction. It identifies the challenges faced by these learners and their families, and shares ways of building both literacy and numeracy skills for some of the vulnerable learners nationally and internationally.The book shares the outcomes and strategies for teaching mathematics to early years learners and highlights the importance of literacy practices for learners for whom the language of instruction is different from their home language. Readers will gain a practical sense of how to create contexts, classrooms and practices to scaffold these learners to build robust understandings of mathematics.
