Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Nanotherapeutics
Academic Press Inc (Verlag)
978-0-323-85666-9 (ISBN)
This book is structured in two parts that provide a good balance of foundational and applied content. Part I deals with an overview of mitochondrial dysfunction and its role in the aging process, including metabolic diseases, neuro-affective and neurodegenerative disorders, sepsis, and toxicological aspects. Part II covers therapeutic substance delivery to mitochondria with a focus on cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and increasing the bioavailability of natural compounds of interest. Several nanoscale strategies are described.
Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Nanotherapeutics: Aging, Diseases, and Nanotechnology-Related Strategies in Mitochondrial Medicine is a complete resource for researchers in this exciting field. Its comprehensive coverage makes this book particularly interesting to bioscience researchers looking to understand the foundations of mitochondrial health throughout the human life span. Additionally, clinician researchers, medical doctors, nutritionists, pharmacologists, and sports scientists may be attracted to the detailed information on the organelle-targeted delivery strategies.
Dr Oliveira PhD earned his bachelor’s degree in Biological Sciences at Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) in 2005, followed by a Master’s and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the same institution. His research focuses on the neuroprotection mediated by natural molecules and involves studies on mitochondrial physiology, redox biology, bioenergetics, and inflammation in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models. Dr Oliveira has published numerous articles on peer-reviewed Journals, including Molecular Neurobiology, Chemico-Biological Interactions, Biotechnology Advances, and Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity. He has also edited a book on the effects of plant molecules on the mitochondria Mitochondrial Physiology and Vegetal Molecules: Therapeutic Potential of Natural Compounds on Mitochondrial Health and a book on the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in both neurological disturbances and intoxication Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Nanotherapeutics: Aging, Diseases, and Nanotechnology-Related Strategies in Mitochondrial Medicine.
