Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology for Pharmacists and Health Professionals (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This textbook covers the foundational principles of biochemistry and molecular biology while also examining how a strong foundation in these disciplines is important for understanding the pathologies of various medical conditions and their connections to drug development. It bridges a gap between traditional biochemistry and molecular cell biology, and their applications to pharmaceutical science, therapies, and clinical practice. The textbook explains how certain pharmaceuticals are designed to target and disrupt basic cellular and biochemical mechanisms. For example, drugs may be designed to interfere with membrane transport proteins, cell signaling pathways, metabolic pathways, or nucleic acid structure and function. This textbook is intended for PharmD students, and students of other medical professions. Each chapter includes self-assessment quizzes, as well as detailed illustrations, diagrams, tables, infographics, and visual aids.
