Biologics

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2020
Biologics are a growing field that has shown immense promise for the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions both in orthopedic sports medicine and interventional pain management. These procedures utilize injection of supraphysiologic levels of platelets and growth factors to invoke the body's own inflammatory cascade to augment the healing of many ...

Challenges and Approaches for the Development of Safer Immunomodulatory Biologics

Nature Reviews Drug Discovery, 2013
Immunomodulatory biologics, which render their therapeutic effects by modulating or harnessing immune responses, have proven their therapeutic utility in several complex conditions including cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Simulating biological and non-biological motion

Brain and Cognition, 2008
It is widely accepted that the brain processes biological and non-biological movements in distinct neural circuits. Biological motion, in contrast to non-biological motion, refers to active movements of living beings. Aim of our experiment was to investigate the mechanisms underlying mental simulation of these two movement types. Subjects had to either

Biological Boundaries and Biological Age

Acta Biotheoretica, 2009
The chronologic age classically used in demography is often unable to give useful information about which exact stage in development or aging processes has reached an organism. Hence, we propose here to explain in some applications for what reason the chronologic age fails in explaining totally the observed state of an organism, which leads to propose ...

Unconventional Biological Threats and the Molecular Biological Response to Biological Threats

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2002
This article concludes this symposium on potential agents of warfare and terrorism with discussion of 3 topics. First, influenza A virus is discussed as a potential biological weapon. Although it does not receive much attention in this role, the potential for mass casualties and public panic certainly exist if an epidemic of a virulent influenza A ...

The Importance of Biological Databases in Biological Discovery

Current Protocols in Bioinformatics, 2015
Abstract Biological databases play a central role in bioinformatics. They offer scientists the opportunity to access a wide variety of biologically relevant data, including the genomic sequences of an increasingly broad range of organisms. This unit provides a brief overview of major sequence databases and portals,

Biological Naturalism and Biological Realism

2018
This chapter summarizes the main principles of Biological Naturalism (BN) and Biological Realism (BR), and analyzes some of their similarities and differences. It contrasts the biological approach represented by BN and BR with another currently influential approach: information theories of consciousness, especially the Information Integration Theory ...

What Are Biologics, Biological Products and Biological Drugs?

2014
Following the deaths of 14 children from contaminated antitoxins and smallpox vaccines, Congress in 1902 passed the Biologics Control Act, which is also known as The Virus-Toxin Law. This act required manufacturers to be licensed for safety and was a precursor and model for the Food Drugs and Cosmetics Act of 1938 which also emphasized safety.
