Beschreibung
The Retinoids: Biology, Biochemistry, and Disease provides an overview and synthesis of the retinoid molecules, from basic biology to mechanisms of diseases and therapy. The book covers retinoic acid signaling from biochemical, genetic, developmental, and clinical perspectives.
The text is divided into five parts, the first of which examines vitamin A metabolic and enzymatic pathways. Focus then shifts to the role of retinoic acid signaling in development, and then to retinoids and physiological function. The book concludes with chapters on retinoids, disease and therapy.
Comprehensive in scope and written by leading researchers in the field, The Retinoids: Biology, Biochemistry, and Disease will be an essential reference for biologists, biochemists, geneticists and developmental biologists, as well as for clinicians and pharmacists engaged in clinical research involving retinoids.
* An up-to-date synthesis of research on retinoids
* Covers molecular mechanisms, pathway evolution, control of gene expression, and functions in development and adult physiology
* Integrates basic biology and biochemistry with roles in disease and potential for therapies
* Authored by internationally recognized leaders in the field
