Inborn Errors of Metabolism (Classic Reprint): The Croonian Lectures Delivered Before the Royal College of Physicians of London, in June, 1908 - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Unlock the science behind how inherited metabolic differences shape health and disease. This edition presents the landmark observations and ideas that began to reframes our understanding of metabolism, enzymes, and how small molecular changes drive real differences in living beings. It blends chemical physiology with clinical insight in a way that helped launch modern medical thought.
Drawn from the Croonian Lectures of 1908, this work surveys the idea of chemical individuality, the role of proteins and sulfur-containing compounds, and how disruptions in normal metabolic paths explain conditions like alkaptonuria and cystinuria. It offers a clear, accessible view of complex topics—from how the body handles nitrogen and sulfur to how enzymatic steps guide the fate of amino acids—without relying on speculation. The result is a foundational look at how genetics and metabolism intersect in health and disease.
- Foundational explanations of metabolism as a compartmental, enzyme-driven process rather than a single global burn.
- Key discussions of sulfur and nitrogen metabolism, including the fate of cystin and related compounds.
- Early clinical connections between metabolic disorders and observable traits or urine compositions.
- Context for how evolutionary ideas and chemical physiology shaped early 20th‑century medical thinking.
Ideal for readers of medical history, physiology, and anyone curious about the origins of modern metabolic science.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of "inborn errors of metabolism," a concept first explored in the early 1900s. These rare conditions, present from birth, offer a unique window into the intricate workings of the human body's chemical processes. The author meticulously examines four key examples: albinism, alkaptonuria, cystinuria, and pentosuria. Each condition is characterized by a distinct chemical abnormality, resulting in unusual physical features or excretion patterns. Through detailed case studies and meticulous analysis, the book sheds light on the underlying causes of these errors, exploring the possibility of missing enzymes or incomplete metabolic pathways. The author also delves into the hereditary nature of these conditions, highlighting the role of recessive genes and the influence of consanguinity. Ultimately, this book offers profound insights into the delicate balance of human metabolism, revealing how seemingly minor deviations can lead to remarkable and often lifelong consequences. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332143061_0
