Description
Provides an update on several new aspects of peroxisome biology, including the role of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor. The book covers morphilogical, biochemical and molecular biological aspects of peroxisomes.
Table of Contents
- Peroxisome biogenesis
- metabolic role of mammalian peroxisomes
- peroxisome proliferators as cytochrome P450 inducers
- molecular mechanisms involved in induction of peroxisomal B-oxidation enzymes by hypolipidaemic agents
- possible role of COASH esters on xenobiotic-induced peroxismal proliferation and non-genotoxic carcinogenesis
- modulation of peroxismal biogenesis and libit metabolizing enzymes by dietary factors
- cultured hepatocytes - a useful in vitro system to investigate
