Critical Reviews Of Oxidative Stress And Aging: Advances In Basic Science, Diagnostics And Intervention (In 2 Volumes)

This comprehensive two-volume reference provides information pertaining to the translational research field of oxidative stress and ageing. The text focuses on understanding the molecular basis of oxidative stress and its associated age-related diseases with the goal being the development of new and novel methods in treating the human ageing processes. It charts the course of this new and rapidly emerging field of oxidative stress diagnostics and therapeutics that will have a significant impact on the future economics, science and practice of medicine. Over 100 of the leading experts in this field whose specialities includes biogerontology, geriatric medicine, free radical chemistry and biology, oncology, cardiology, neurobiology, dermatology, pharmacology, nutrition, and molecular medicine, have contributed information. The work should be useful to a broad range of individuals including researchers, physicians, corporate industry leaders, graduate and medical school students, as well as the many health conscious individuals who wish to know more about the emerging field of oxidative stress and ageing with an emphasis on diagnostics and intervention.
