Abstrakt: Summary: Blood Oxidant Ties: The Evolving Concepts in Myocardial Injury and Cardiovascular Diseaseis an update on the recent advances in the development of antioxidant-based therapies. It starts with an overview of the mechanisms underlying the genesis of oxidative stress, summarizing the link between oxidative stress and a number of cardiovascular conditions. This is followed by an explanation of how oxidative stress interacts with lipid metabolism and the placental environment. Three chapters on the role of antioxidant-based therapy for cardiovascular diseases round up the book. Key Features- Outlines several cell-signaling pathways that are modulated by the interplay between reducing and oxidizing agents (redox status) and gene expression in the cardiovascular disease process- Brings information about maternal programming environment in the placenta- Covers development of novel nanotechnology-based antioxidant delivery systems for effective drug delivery- Includes references for further reading The book is aimed at a broad readership of scientific and medical professionals involved in research on cardiovascular diseases, pathophysiology, pharmacy, pharmaceutical science and life sciences. It also serves as a reference for scholars who want to understand the complex biochemical mechanisms of antioxidant agents.
