Sommario/riassunto

Experts investigate the biochemical and biomedical aspects of cholesterol, addressing its metabolism in normal and disease states.



They discuss a broad range of topics, including key steps in the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway, and the role of cholesterol in cancer, atherosclerosis, and diseases of the nervous system. The book's comprehensive coverage also includes the pathological consequences and potential therapies for various disease states, and the development of new anti-atherogenic drugs.
