Description for Advances in Mitochondrial Medicine
Hardcover. This book discusses the role of mitochondrial dysfunction and the complex pathophysiological mechanisms associated with a growing number of illnesses. It examines mitochondria as a valuable target for xenobiotics and its etiopathogenic role in diseases. Editor(s): Scatena, Roberto; Bottoni, Patrizia; Giardina, Bruno. Series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology. Num Pages: 461 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MFCC; MMG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 186 x 264 x 25. Weight in Grams: 990.
Mitochondria are far more than the “powerhouse” of the cell as they have classically been described. In fact, mitochondria biological activities have progressively expanded to include not only various bioenergetic processes but also important biosynthetic pathways, calcium homeostasis and thermogenesis, cell death by apoptosis, several different signal transduction pathways mainly related to redox control of gene expression and so on. This functional and structural complexity may undergo important derangements so to justify the definition of ‘mitochondrial medicine’, which should include all the clinical consequences of congenital or acquired mitochondrial dysfunctions. There are actually a growing number of studies which assign ... Read more
