Vibrations and Waves

Vibrations and Waves

The M. I. T. Introductory Physics Series is the result of a program of careful study planning and development that began in 1960. The Education Research Center at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (formerly the Science Teaching Center) was established to study the process of instruction aids thereto and the learning process itself with special reference to science teaching at the university level. Generous support from a number of foundations provided the means for assembling and maintaining an experienced staff to co-operate with members of the Institute's Physics Department in the examination improvement and development of physics curriculum materials for students planning careers in the sciences. After careful analysis of objectives and the problems involved preliminary versions of textbooks were prepared tested through classroom use at M. I. T. and other institutions re-evaluated rewritten and tried again. Only then were the final manuscripts undertaken. | Vibrations and Waves

Organelle and Molecular Targeting

Organelle and Molecular Targeting

We have surpassed the omics era and are truly in the Age of Molecular Therapeutics. The fast-paced development of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines such as the mRNA vaccines encoding the viral spike protein demonstrated the need for and capability of molecular therapy and nanotechnology-based solutions for drug delivery. In record speed the SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA genome was sequenced and shared with the scientific community allowing the rapid design of molecular therapeutics. The mRNA vaccines exploit the host cell endoplasmic reticulum to produce viral spike proteins for antigen presentation and recognition by the innate and adaptive immune system. Lipid nanoparticles enable the delivery of the fragile degradation-sensitive nucleic acid payloads. Molecular-based therapeutics and nanotechnology solutions continue to drive the scientific and medical response to the COVID-19 pandemic as new mRNA DNA and protein-based vaccines are developed and approved and the emergency use approved vaccines are rapidly manufactured and distributed throughout the globe. The need for molecular therapies and drug delivery solutions is clear and as these therapies progress and become more specialized there will be important advancements in organelle targeting. For example using organelle targeting to direct lipid nanoparticles with mRNA payloads to the endoplasmic reticulum would increase the efficacy of mRNA vaccines reducing the required dose and therefore the biomanufacturing demand. Likewise improving the delivery of DNA therapeutics to the nucleus would improve efficacy. Organelles and molecules have always been drug targets but until recently we have not had the tools or capability to design and develop such highly specific therapeutics. Organelle targeting has far-reaching implications. For example mitochondria are central to both energy production and intrinsic apoptosis. Effectively targeting and manipulating mitochondria has therapeutic applications for diseases such as myopathies cancer neurodegeneration progerias diabetes and the natural aging process. The SARS-CoV-2 vaccines that exploit the endoplasmic reticulum (for mRNA vaccines) and the nucleic translational process (DNA vaccines) attest to the need for organelle and molecular therapeutics. This book covers the status demand and future of organelle- and molecularly targeted therapeutics that are critical to the advancement of modern medicine. Organelle and molecular targeting is the drug design and drug delivery approach of today and the future; understanding this approach is essential for students scientists and clinicians contributing to modern medicine.
