Membrane Transporters as Drug Targets

Herausgegeben:Amidon, Gordon L.; Sadée, Wolfgang

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Because progress in the field of transporters has been extraordinary, this volume will focus on recent advances in our understanding of the structure, function, physiology, and molecular biology of membrane transporters. There will be an emphasis on transporters as molecular targets for drug delivery and disposition in the body.
