Opis: Molecular Medicine - Jens Kurreck

Easy to read, yet comprehensive, this is the perfect introduction into the molecular basis of disease and the novel treatment options that have become available. The authors, Jens Kurreck and Cy Stein, have both long-standing teaching experience on the subject, one from a biologist's angle, the other with a medical background. Together, they have produced a modern textbook for courses in Molecular Medicine that incorporates modules from immunology to signaling, from virology to gene therapy, and the latest development in personalized medicine.Preface xiii 1 Introduction 1 1.1 The Basics of Molecular Medicine 2 1.1.1 Topics of Molecular Medicine 2 1.1.2 Stages of Drug Development 3 1.2 The Human Cell 4 1.2.1 Organelles
