Summary:
This, our third book on the Biochemistry and Cell Biology of Ageing in the Subcellular Biochemistry series, expands on the content of Part I, by covering additional biomedical topics. The 16 chapters included here, contributed by international knowledgeable scientists, review these further interesting topics at an advanced level. Following an Introductory chapter, these topics are included: Chromatin Structure from Development to Ageing, the Nuclear Envelope in Ageing and Progeria, Mitochondrial DNA Mutations and Ageing, the Proteasome and Ageing, Gap Junctions and Ageing, Cellular Senescence and Ageing, Therapeutic Opportunities Presented by Modulation of Cellular Senescence, Ageing at Molecular Level: Role of MicroRNAs, CircRNA and Ageing, Extracellular Vesicles and Cellular Ageing,Fibrinogen, Coagulation and Ageing, An Insight into Platelets at Older Age: Cellular and Clinical Perspectives, Ageing Skeletal Muscle: The Ubiquitous Muscle Stem Cell,Age-related Changes in Central Nervous System 5-Hydroxytryptamine Signalling and its Potential effects on the Regulation of Lifespan, and Systems Biology of Ageing. The book is primarily directed to advanced biomedical science and medical students, postgraduates, researchers and academics in the field of Ageing. A further companion volume of the series (Part IV) covering the more Clinical Science aspects will be published soon. The seemingly endless expansion of ageing research continues to throw up important areas, that may well be covered in future volumes, together with updates of rapidly moving subjects. Thus, a further book on Anti-ageing Interventions (Part V) is under production.
