内容説明

In recent years, the role of free radicals and antioxidants has become a part of the aetiology of a surprisingly large number of diseases. The area of cardiovascular research has now perhaps exceeded many of the others. Much remains however, to be learned about how oxidation is initiated and about the roles of different lipids and lipoproteins fractions. The aim of this book is to discuss the current understanding of the role of oxidative processes in artherosclerosis in terms of the chemistry, biochemistry and cell biology. Also included is a section on the epidemiological evidence for the role of antioxidants. Contributions come from researchers in the field. The book brings together information from their respective fields as well as juxtaposing different perspectives on a common problem. It aims to be of interest to scientists, in pure and applied research, interested in free radicals, all aspects of cardiovascular dysfunction, lipoproteins and lipoxygenases.
