Medical Biochemistry
Antonio Blanco
Medical Biochemistry - 2nd Edition - 125 London Wall, London EC2Y 5AS, United Kingdom Elsevier Science 2022 - 620 pages
Medical Biochemistry, Second Edition covers the structure and physical and chemical properties of hydrocarbons, lipids, proteins and nucleotides in a straightforward and easy to comprehend language. The book develops these concepts into the more complex aspects of biochemistry using a systems approach, dedicating chapters to the integral study of biological phenomena, including particular aspects of metabolism in some organs and tissues, the biochemical bases of endocrinology, immunity, vitamins, hemostasis, autophagy and apoptosis. Additionally, the book has been updated with full-color figures, chapter summaries, and further medical examples to improve learning and illustrate the concepts described in the book.
Sections cover bioenergetics and metabolic syndromes, antioxidants to treat disease, plasma membranes, ATPases and monocarboxylate transporters, the human microbiome, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, autophagy, virology and epigenetics, non-coding, small and long RNAs, protein misfolding, signal transduction pathways, vitamin D, cellular immunity and apoptosis.
Integrates basic biochemistry principles with molecular biology and molecular physiology
Illustrates basic biochemical concepts through medical and physiological examples
Utilizes a systems approach to understanding biological phenomena
Fully updated for recent studies and expanded to include clinically relevant examples and succinct chapter summaries
