Full Description
Biochemical Immunology of Diabetes and Associated Complications offers in-depth coverage of the association of biochemical and immunological aspects of the human body in diabetes. It discusses the suppression and modulation of the immune system and the impact of immunochemicals on the biochemical pathways in diabetes, along with associated complications. The book enumerates the exigency in knowledge about the immunomodulators as therapeutic targets to cure the syndrome. It will serve as an important reference for medical practitioners, researchers, medical students, masters and doctoral students. In addition, it could also be used as a reference for science graduates, science teachers, and researchers.
