The Cardiovascular Adrenergic System (Hardcover, 2015 ed.)

An overview of all the available literature on the various aspects
of the regulation of the cardiovascular system`s function and
physiology by the adrenergic neurohormonal system, i.e. the
catecholamines norepinephrine and epinephrine. Although there are
several books describing the adrenergic system`s biology,
physiology and pharmacology, and also several excellent books on
cardiovascular physiology and pathology, this book focuses
exclusively on the interface of these two areas: cardiovascular
regulation by the adrenergic system and how it affects
cardiovascular diseases and their treatments. Each chapter describe
the roles of the adrenergic system first in each cardiovascular
cell type (cell type-by-cell type) and then in specific areas of
cardiovascular physiology, such as in exercise and in
cardiovascular metabolism. Finally, the book concludes with a
chapter on the adrenergic system`s role in the currently very "hot"
(in terms of scientific investigations) area of cardiovascular stem
cell biology. The book covers the adrenergic system-specifically
and exclusively in the heart and vessels. It is formatted by
cardiovascular cell type-by-cell type manner, rather than in an
organ-by-organ or in a disease-by-disease manner, as usually
discussed in standard, conventional biomedical textbooks. The book
also discusses the adrenergic system in novel, cutting-edge
cardiovascular research areas, in which it has not been covered
well so far (e.g. stem cells, exercise). These three areas
constitute the most important assets of the book, which sets it
apart from others in the field.
