内容説明

Written by two of the foremost authorities in this field, this is the first book that deals with the B3 receptor, its role in health and disease, and the effects of specific pharmacologic stimulation. There are indications that abnormalities in B3 receptor activity and/or sensitivity play an important role in obesity, diabetes, and systemic hypertension. Specific pharma-cologic agents have been developed that stimulate these receptors, which have great potential for the treatment of patients having exogenous obesity, diabetes mellitus, and various cardiovascular disorders. This area, which will have an important positive impact on medical therapeutics, is pre-sented in a practical, focused manner that will benefit all health professionals in the treatment of their patients.
