Disturbances in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism (Clinical physiology series)

This book assesses basic knowledge of lipid metabolism and its clinical applications in four major sections: Lipid Movement Across Biological Membranes; Absorption of Dietary Lipids and Chylomicron Metabolism; Structure, Synthesis, and Metabolism of Very-Low-Density and High-Density Lipoproteins; and Fatty Acid Transport and Metabolism. As a sourcebook and reference for both physiologists and clinicians, this volume is an essential acquisition.
