Platelets, Haemostasis and Inflammation (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Zirlik, Andreas; Gawaz, Meinrad; Bode, Christoph

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The book depicts the various roles of platelets in a variety of cardio-metabolic diseases. Traditional and non-traditional platelet functions are described in detail in atherosclerosis, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, myocardial infarction, and other vascular pathologies. Particular focus is put on platelets as a link between haemostasis and inflammation contributing to both. Last but not least the books links the most recent advances in basic sciences with promising novel therapeutic applications and first results of clinical trials.

The book is written for biomedical scientists in the sub disciplines vascular biology, biochemistry and immunology; and it as well will be of interest and value for academic physicians like cardiologists, hematologists, general internists and vascular surgeons.

Rezensionen

"A focus of the book is on the link between haemostasis and inflammation, and the roles that platelets play in both. It also aims to describe recent advances in basic science and early results of clinical trials. The book is written for biomedical scientists specializing in vascular biology, biochemistry or immunology. ... this textbook is likely to be best value for money for purchase by libraries at academic institutions ... ."
