This book provides an up-to-date overview of key areas of ageing
research and bridges the gap between the subcellular events and the
reality of ageing as seen in clinical practice. To this end, the
reader learns about the historical development and progression of
clinical ageing research. All chapters address the biochemistry or
cell biology of various ageing events (to the extent that the data
are available) and work their way to the clinical understanding we
have of ageing. The focus of this volume is on how dietary
restriction, virus infection and chronic inflammation affect the
ageing process. Additionally, this book discusses how phosphate
metabolism and metabolic dysfunction contribute to ageing events
and how various organs and tissues (e.g. tendons, ears, heart
muscle, and the endocrine system) age. This book follows on from
Parts I, II and III of Biochemistry and Cell Biology of Ageing
within the Subcellular Biochemistry book series and aims to bring
the subcellular and clinical areas into closer contact by including
interesting and significant biomedical ageing topics that were not
included in the earlier volumes. Comprehensive and cutting-edge,
this book is a valuable resource for experienced researchers and
early career scientist alike, who are interested in learning more
about the fascinating and challenging question of why and how our
cells age.
