SERIES: MONOGRAPHS FOR SPECIALISTS, WITHOUT SERIES

The monograph discusses for the first time, in general and in detail, new basic achievements in the field of the molecular bases of the prevention of risk factors for the development and progress of the disease. Special attention is paid to the neuro-immune-endocrine aspects of the most important risk factors that influence the organism. These factors are the most significant in the pathogenesis of socially significant diseases and are an object of all stages of prevention.
S.S. Konovalov et al.’s monograph can be recommended to multifaceted specialty physicians (therapists, endocrinologists, oncologists, neurologists, gerontologists, physiologists, morphologists), as well as to students of medical institutes and biology faculties.

Selected Lectures on Gerontology

V.H. Havinson, S.S. Konovalov.  

SERIES: MONOGRAPHS FOR SPECIALISTS, WITHOUT SERIES

This book presents a selection of lectures on gerontology, which is devoted to the molecular–cellular mechanisms of ageing.

These lectures provide the most up-to-date information about the role and importance of structural and functional intercellular communication networks that determine the rate of organism ageing. It is shown that integral analysis of the signal transduction regulatory system opens up new possibilities. It helps to extend knowledge on the molecular–cellular mechanisms of ageing and enriches our perspectives on the preventive care, diagnosis, and cure of age-related diseases.

This book addresses a wide readership of physicians, biologists, and students of medicine and biology.

Recommended by the Committee for the Teaching of Medicine and Pharmacology at Universities and Institutes of the Russian Federation as a manual for third-degree professional formation of physicians.

Lipids and Cancer: Essays on Lipidology of the Oncology Process

Authors: V.V. Bezuglov; S.S. Konovalov

SERIES: MONOGRAPHS FOR SPECIALISTS, WITHOUT SERIES

This book broadens significantly the contemporary ideas about lipids and their role in the pathological formation of tumours.

The fundamental classes of lipids that form the basis of lipid regulation are analysed in this monograph.

The new perspectives of therapy are reviewed, both therapies related to the use of lipids and to exposure to main albumins of lipid metabolism and reception.

This monograph is very timely and helpful to a broad range of readers, medics, and biologists.

College and university students will find introductory material about various lipid class structures and functions.

This edition has no equivalent in the contemporary scientific literature.

Recommended by the Scientific Committee of the Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry M.M. Chemiakin and Ju.A. Ovchinnikov of the Academy of Sciences of Russia as a scientific edition.
