"This is an excellent resource on the molecular pathways of the 42 most common on-oncologic diseases that illustrates the connection between the molecular causes of diseases and their symptoms. It is unique in the way it provides molecular disease pathways, which will assist readers in clearly understanding disease processes. It will serve as a reference for general biologists, biochemists, students, and medical workers." --Doody "The BiochemistI would definitely recommend this book for anyone who works on disease pathology or cell biology as it is immensely useful both for deepening understanding and for quickly checking the role of a molecule in a specific disease. The writing is clear and concise and supported by beautiful diagrams; while the subjects are comprehensively covered, each section is a manageable chunk and it is very easy to quickly navigate the text. Overall, this book is a must-have for those interested in cell signalling and would make a great addition to an academic bookshelf!" --The Biochemist
Disease Pathways: An Atlas of Human Disease Signaling Pathways is designed to fill a void of illustrated reviews about the cellular mechanisms of human diseases. It covers 42 of the most common non-oncologic diseases and illustrates the connections between the molecular causes of the disease and its symptoms. This resource provides readers with detailed information about the disease molecular pathways, while keeping the presentation simple. Pathway models that aggregate the knowledge about protein–protein interactions have become indispensable tools in many areas of molecular biology, pharmacology, and medicine. In addition to disease pathways, the book includes a comprehensive overview of molecular signaling biology and application of pathway models in the analysis of big data for drug discovery and personalized medicine. This is a must-have reference for general biologists, biochemists, students, medical workers, and everyone interested in the cellular and molecular mechanisms of human disease.
