Molecular Mechanisms in Hypertension de Richard N. Re

Molecular Mechanisms in Hypertension

Editat de Richard N. Re
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 mar 2006
Authoritative and insightful, this important text provides an update on the latest advances in the areas of biomedical research that are at the interface of science and clinical medicine, where new discoveries in genetics, molecular and cell biology are not only enhancing our understanding of the etiology and progression of disease but are finding application in the development of new drugs or the implementation of new kinds of therapy. Reviewing current knowledge of the mechanisms contributing to hypertension, an internationally renowned team of contributors highlights developments across a broad range of disciplines and provides an overview of the advances in biomedical research that have a direct bearing on current clinical studies. A key work in its field, this text will have broad appeal to clinical cardiologists, vascular medicine specialists, and internists, as well as members of the cardiovascular research community and pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

Recenzii

"…this text throws down the gauntlet and compels physicians to not simply be content with prescribing the medications currently available, but instead to look to locate the catalyst behind the breakdown in hopes that a better understanding of the disease will inspire more efficient medical therapies (and eventual prevention)."
