Full Description
This book is a valuable source for clinical researchers, clinicians, and people in the biomedical field who want to understand the mechanisms of a very important biological factor in disease: sex. This book addresses the function of different signaling pathways, the modification of the metabolism of the cells as well as chemical compounds with estrogenic activity that are involved in the generation of gender differences in disease. The book is intended to broaden the comprehension of sexual dimorphism and its molecular mechanisms, mainly during human pathologies. It is significant to people interested in an update on sex differences in health and disease, and explains the latest sex-associated factors for different types of diseases. It also delves into the advantages of modifying metabolisms in order to obtain potential strategies for restoring the function of effector immune cells.
