Vascular Protection
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-0-415-27219-3 (ISBN)
Vascular Protection explores advances in vascular biology and how they translate into innovations in drug therapy for vascular disease. It addresses recent advances in the knowledge of endothelial vasoactive factors and other biologically active molecules as well as gene therapy. Written by leading experts in their respective fields, each chapter emphasizes the mechanisms and pathologic consequences of vascular disorders, highlighting the clinical ramifications of these insights and the potential for new therapeutic strategies. Vascular Protection provides critical new information for researchers and clinicians, as well as to industrial scientists in pursuit of novel therapies for cardiovascular disorders.
