Produktbeschreibung

Mitochondrial medicine deals with diseases that are related to mitochondrial dysfunction due to a number of causes from free radical damage to genetic mutation. This book is based on extensive data gathered over 30 years of clinical and experimental research. In it, internationally recognized authors share their experience in various fields of their expertise and guide readers through the disease process, from basic biochemical mechanisms to diagnosis to therapeutic aspects.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"This comprehensive book deals with various experimental and clinical aspects of the role of mitochondria in physiology and pathophysiology. ... editor has done a nice job of assembling a panel of researchers, several of whom are experts, in different aspects of mitochondria biology. ... chapters are reasonably well referenced and of appropriate length, and many contain helpful illustrations. The index is complete, which makes the text easy to navigate. This is a very good book that is appropriate for physicians, pharmacologists, and life science experts." (John D. Robertson, Doody's Review Service, August, 2008)

"The book is dedicated to 4 essential aspects of the problem called in the literature as 'mitochondrial diseases' ... . Specialists from different countries participated in the monograph preparation ... . The book contains 22 chapters. ... The book is well documented, contains 122 figures and many tables with new interestingdata. This monograph shows that in modern biology there appears a new area of knowledge located in a focus of biomembranology, bioenergetics, and clinical biochemistry. It is called Mitochondrial medicine." (A.A. Boldyrev, Biochemistry (Moscow), Vol. 3 (2), 2009)
