Metabolic Syndrome : Underlying Mechanisms and Drug Therapies /

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the development of metabolic syndrome, the underlying mechanisms and therapeutic strategies for drug development. The authors examine the context of underlying molecular pathways and integrated physiology, then expanding the discussion to diseases assoc...
