Molecular and Cellular Biology of the Vitamins is a key resource describing how vitamins function as physiologically active molecules at the cellular level. The contents of the book are divided into four sections including a thorough introduction; biological perspectives; fat-soluble vitamins; and water-soluble vitamins. Vitamin chapters cover information on chemical structures; intestinal absorption; plasma transport and metabolism; biochemical and physiological actions; regulations of gene expression; immunological properties; deficiency-related diseases. The “perspectives” chapters facilitate the understanding of vitamin biology; including the theory of biochemistry, physiology, endocrinology, molecular genetics, and immunology. Features · Facilitates learning and understanding through a logical flow of information. · Discusses vitamin “behavior” across a wide range of biological disciplines. · Discusses immunological and deficiency-related diseases including as coronary artery disease, diabetes and cancer; and potential toxicity.
