Human-Computer Interaction and Management Information Systems: Applications. Advances in Management Information Systems

Applications

By: Dennis F. Galletta,Yahong Zhang

Human-Computer Interaction and Management Information Systems: Applications" offers state-of-the-art research by a distinguished set of authors who span the MIS and HCI fields. The original chapters provide authoritative commentaries and in-depth descriptions of research programs that will guide 21st century scholars, graduate students, and industry professionals. Human-Computer Interaction (or Human Factors) in MIS is concerned with the ways humans interact with information, technologies, and tasks, especially in business, managerial, organizational, and cultural contexts. It is distinctive in many ways when compared with HCI studies in other disciplines. The MIS perspective affords special importance to managerial and organizational contexts by focusing on analysis of tasks and outcomes at a level that considers organizational effectiveness. With the recent advancement of technologies and development of many sophisticated applications, human-centeredness in MIS has become more critical than ever before. This work focuses on applications and evaluations including special case studies, specific contexts or tasks, HCI methodological concerns, and the use and adoption process.

Epigenetics in the Eye: Pathogenesis and Regulation of Histone Acetylation

By: Yan Zhang,Yumin Zhang,Zhinan Feng,Yahong Li,Sennan Wang,Xueyi Pang,Yunshan Cao

The role of epigenetic histone modifications in the pathogenesis and regulation of eye diseases has received increasing attention. Among these modifications, histone acetylation, which is regulated by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs), is crucial for regulating gene expression under disease conditions in the eye. Hence, eye diseases are closely linked to the imbalance between the acetylation and deacetylation of histone proteins. Moreover, most HDAC inhibitors (HDACis) and several HDAC activators have demonstrated high therapeutic potential in animal models of and in patients with eye diseases. Focusing on the molecular aspects of HATs, HDACs, HDACis, and HDAC activators, this book reviews recent advances in histone acetylation in ocular surface diseases, cataracts, glaucoma, uveitis, and multiple retinal diseases and discusses the effects and mechanisms of action of these enzymes and molecules, with the goal of identifying novel targets for the prevention and treatment of these eye diseases.
