Academic Press Drug Delivery Systems for Metabolic Disorders

Product Description Drug Delivery Systems for Metabolic Disorders presents the most recent developments in targeted delivery of drug to deal with metabolic disorders in a safe, compliant, and continuous way. The book covers recent developments in advanced drug delivery systems in various metabolic disorders including the disturbances in protein, lipid, carbohydrate and hormone metabolism and lysosomal & mitochondrial disorders The book provides a brief introduction to metabolic disorders along with a focus on the current landscape and trends in understanding the disease pathology using different in vitro and in vivo models required for clinical applications and developments of new therapeutics. Each subsequent chapter covers drug delivery systems dedicated to metabolic diseases caused by disturbances in protein, lipid, carbohydrate, and hormone metabolism. Then it moves on to cover lysosomal storage disorders, and applications of phytopharmaceuticals in this context. Drug Delivery Systems for Metabolic Disorders is the perfect reference for researchers in pharmaceutical science interested in developing new treatments for metabolic diseases. Research physicians can also benefit from the different systems proposed to deliver drug to their patients.
