About this book
The Liver: Oxidative Stress and Dietary Antioxidants takes a novel approach to the science of oxidative stress in liver disease by recognizing that diseases are multifactorial and oxidative stress is a single component. It highlights oxidative stress in relation to other processes, such as apoptosis, cell signaling and receptor mediated responses, and includes the therapeutic usage of natural antioxidants in the diet and food matrix, along with coverage of pharmacological and natural agents designed to counteract oxidative stress. Written for research scientists, gastroenterologists, food scientists, hepatologists and physicians, this trans-disciplinary guide will help advance medical sciences and enable new preventative and treatment strategies.
- Provides a framework for in-depth analysis of the basic processes of oxidative stress, from molecular biology, to whole organs in relation to the liver
- Bridges the trans-disciplinary divide between the basic science and mechanisms of liver disease and oxidative stress to advance medical sciences and enable preventative and treatment strategies
- Contains contributions from leading national and international experts, including those from world renowned institutions
