Synopsis

Endothelium and Cardiovascular Diseases: Vascular Biology and Clinical Syndromes, Second Edition offers new discoveries in clinical settings, cellular, molecular, genetic, and epigenetic mechanisms which have led to novel understanding of the key role of endothelium in both cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular diseases. The innovations it presents have implications for both pathophysiological concepts and clinical decisions. Among other topics, cardiovascular and pulmonary medicine, immunity and inflammation, genetics and epigenetics, heart failure, renal disease, familial hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, and hypertension are discussed at length.

With 20 new chapters covering everything from endothelium transition to connective tissue disorders, this second edition is sure to be indispensable to anyone wishing to learn the importance of endothelium to every facet of health.
