Biomedical Chemistry. Applying Chemical Principles to the Understanding
and Treatment of Disease
Description:
How basic chemical ideas help advance the understanding and treatment of disease Biomedical Chemistry
presents clear, concise coverage of the application of chemistry to drug discovery and determination of
disease etiology, highlighting its role in the explosive growth of biotechnology and molecular biology.
Through expert contributions from leading researchers in diverse fields, the book provides readers with an
understanding of how fundamental chemical concepts are used in the development of novel approaches to
the major problems in medicine today. The authors explain both the science and reasoning underlying each
experimental approach, exploring cutting–edge developments in AIDS, cancer, alcoholism, Parkinson's
disease, trypanosomiasis, emphysema, and malaria. Contemporary research problems discussed include:
* Mechanism–based drug discovery
* Design of new antitumor and antiviral agents
* Targeting tumors using magnetic drug delivery
* Antisense and antigene agents
Easily accessible to anyone with a solid undergraduate background in chemistry, Biomedical Chemistry is an
excellent resource for researchers in health–related fields as well as anyone seeking an overview of frontier
topics in medicinal chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry.
