Molecular Pathophysiology, Nutritional and Therapeutic Interventions
Redaktion: Roy, Sashwati; Raychaudhuri, Siba P.; Bagchi, Debasis

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Designed to target scientists as well as clinicians, this book provides critical understanding of the key checkpoints that regulate chronic inflammation-which is associated with numerous chronic diseases and disorders, including autoimmune diseases, atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity. The text provides a comprehensive understanding of the epidemiology of chronic inflammation, as well as novel regulatory mechanisms controlling inflammation initiation, progression, and resolution. The authors address pathologies associated with inflammation and provide various nutritional and therapeutic interventions for inflammatory diseases.
