From Basic Science to Clinical Application

About this book

Fatty Acid-Binding Proteins and Their Roles in Human Health and Disease: From Basic Science to Clinical Application presents the latest information on the contributions of different FABPs in physiology and pathophysiology, along with their importance in clinical outcomes. The book is divided into six main sections that cover FABP biology and their role in inflammation and diseases, such as cardiovascular, neurological, and liver diseases, to FABPs and their clinical applications.Each chapter thoroughly reviews current literature, primary research data and clinical cases, providing readers with an overview of the latest information in the expanded field of FABPs. This is an invaluable resource for both researchers and clinicians familiar with and those new to the exciting and everchanging world of fatty acid-binding proteins and clinical disorders. - Compiles the most recent and comprehensive findings on fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) - Describes the pathophysiology of FABPs in various diseases and as therapeutic targets - Highlights opportunities for improving diagnosis and treatment by encompassing all pathological conditions involving FABPs
