Opis: Medical Biochemistry - Marek H. Dominiczak, John Baynes

Brought to you in a thorough yet accessible manner, the new edition of Medical Biochemistry gives access to all of the latest information on basic and clinically focused genetic and molecular biology. Featuring a team of contributors that includes investigators involved in cutting-edge research as well as experienced clinicians, this updated medical textbook offers a unique combination of both research and practice that's ideal for today's problem-based integrated courses. ***2010 BMA Book?Awards - Highly Commended -?Basic and Clinical Sciences category*** "This is a very thorough book which is great for use for reference and also for quick revision from the summaries at the end of every chapter. The figures are of high quality: figure 1.1 Biochemistry, all in one, is a good overview of the metabolic pathways. Additionally, the clinical boxes highlight clinically relevant information. Overall, this is an excellent resource for undergraduates.? "- Judge's comments" ."It includes all the essential biochemistry needed and indicates further reading at the end of each chapter. Importantly, it frequently uses clinical examples and there is an excellent use of clear and colourful diagrams. There are also a variety of revision questions at the back which are useful for exam practice.? - "UK Medical Student" "" "Graphics are amazing and sooooOOOOO helpful! I have never liked chemistry but thanks to this book I managed to get an A on my Biochemistry 2 exam.? - "Medical Student, University of Zagreb""" ."[lots of] colourful diagrams that are easy to follow and well explained (unusual for a textbook on biochemistry!). The textbook works through the systems of the body in a very logical and clear way without being too complex or misleading.the authors have clearly spent a lot of time assessing what is relevant for the course and in what detail.? - "Medical Student, University of Glasgow"01 Introduction 02 Amino Acids and Proteins 03 Carbohydrates and Lipids 04 Blood and Plasma Proteins 05 Oxygen Transport 06 Catalytic Proteins-Enzymes 07 Hemostasis and Thrombosis 08 Membranes and Transport 09 Bioenergetics and Oxidative Metabolism 10 Digestion and Absorption of Nutrients: The Gastrointestinal Tract 11 Vitamins and Minerals 12 Anaerobic Metabolism of Glucose in the Red Blood Cell 13 Carbohydrate Storage and Synthesis in Liver and Muscle 14 The Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle 15 Oxidative Metabolism of Lipids in Liver and Muscle 16 Biosynthesis and Storage of Fatty Acids 17 Biosynthesis of Cholesterol and Steroids 18 Lipoproteins Metabolism and Atherogenesis 19 Biosynthesis and Degradation of Amino Acids 20 Muscle: Energy Metabolism and Contraction 21 Glucose Homeostasis and Fuel Metabolism: Diabetes Mellitus 22 Nutrition and Energy Balance 23 Role of Kidneys in Metabolism 24 Water and Electrolyte Homeostasis 25 Regulation of Hydrogen Ion Concentration (Acid-Base Balance) 26 Bone Metabolism and Calcium Homeostasis 27 Complex Carbohydrates: Glycoproteins 28 Complex Lipids 29 The Extracellular Matrix 30 Role of the Liver in Metabolism 31 Biosynthesis and Degradation of Nucleotides 32 Deoxyribonucleic Acid 33 Ribonucleic Acid 34 Protein Synthesis and Turnover 35 Regulation of Gene Expression: Basic Mechanisms 36 Regulation of Gene Expression: Genomics, Proteomics and Metabolomics 37 Oxygen and Life 38 The Immune Response 39 Biochemical Endocrinology 40 Membrane Receptors and Signal Transduction 41.1 Neurotransmitters 41.2 Neurochemistry 42 Cellular Homeostasis: Cell Growth and Cancer 43 Aging
