Description for Enzyme Systems That Metabolise Drugs and Other Xenobiotics
Hardcover. This reference work focuses on the enzyme systems that participate in the metabolism of chemicals and other xenobiotics, with emphasis being placed on drug metabolism. Each chapter focuses on a specific enzyme system. Series: Current Toxicology. Num Pages: 588 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: MMGT; PSBZ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 178 x 37. Weight in Grams: 1050.
This definitive reference work describes in detail the enzyme systems that participate in the metabolism of xenobiotics, particularly medicinal drugs. Each chapter focuses on a specific enzyme system, emphasising its role in the activation and detoxication of chemicals. Aspects discussed critically include:
* enzyme function in the metabolism and bioactivation of xenobiotics
* substrate specificity
* tissue distribution
* species distribution (to include laboratory animals and humans)
* hormonal regulation
* sex differences
* modulation by prior exposure to other chemicals
* age-dependent expression
* pharmacogenetics and modulation by disease.
