| Sommario/riassunto: | This book gives you an updated and expert overview of nuclear hormone receptors in drug metabolism and drug development and equips you with the interdisciplinary understanding of these receptors and how they can be regulated. Pharmaceutical researchers will find this extremely useful in developing drugs for cancer, heart disease, and diabetes treatment. This comprehensive resource collects scattered materials into one handy, informative volume. |
