The market is so bereft of such approaches that many pharmaceutical companies will adopt Hacker et al. to help train new drug researchers.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe boom in pharmacology is driven by the recent decryption of the human genome and enormous progress in controlling genes and synthesizing proteins, making new and even custom drug design possible. This book makes use of these discoveries in presenting its topics, moving logically from drug receptors to the target molecules drug researchers seek, covering such modern topics along the way as side effects, drug resistance, pharmacogenomics, and even nutriceuticals, one in a string of culminating chapters on the drug discovery process.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe book is aimed at advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students in medical, pharmacy, and graduate schools looking for a solid introduction to the basic science of pharmacology and envisioning careers in drug research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS:\u003cbr\u003e1.\tRoutes of Administration\u003cbr\u003e2.\tMembranes and Drug Action\u003cbr\u003e3.\tDrug Absorption\u003cbr\u003e4.\tDrug Transporters in ADME\u003cbr\u003e5.\tDrug Distribution\u003cbr\u003e6.\tDrug Metabolism\u003cbr\u003e7.\tDrug Excretion\u003cbr\u003e8.\tPharmacokinetics\u003cbr\u003e9.\tReceptor-ligand Interaction\u003cbr\u003e10.\tMolecular Targets for Drug Actions\u003cbr\u003e11.\tCell Signaling Pathways\u003cbr\u003e12.\tImmunopharmacology\u003cbr\u003e13.\tDrug Toxicity\u003cbr\u003e14.\tAdverse Drug Reactions\u003cbr\u003e15.\tCell Death\u003cbr\u003e16.\tPharmacogenomics and Pharmacogenetics\u003cbr\u003e17.\tDrug Tolerance, Dependence, Addiction\u003cbr\u003e18.\tDrug Resistance\u003cbr\u003e19.\tRole of Molecular Biology in Modern Pharmacology\u003cbr\u003e20.\tDrug Discovery – Sources of New Drugs\u003cbr\u003e21.\tDrug Development – Pre-clinical\u003cbr\u003e22.\tDrug Development – Clinical\u003cbr\u003e23.\tNutriceuticals\u003cbr\u003e24.\tThe FDA\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Pharmacology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Pharmacology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Pharmacology%20%5BMMG%5D%22\"\u003eMMG\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Academic Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46649206276376,"sku":"9780123695215","price":62.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780123695215_819129b1-a68a-4379-8e9f-e6022afe4326.jpg?v=1695006816","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/pharmacology-principles-and-practice-hardback-9780123695215","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
