Arterial Chemoreceptors: Mal(adaptive) Responses: O2 Dependent and Independent Mechanisms (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, 1427)
By Sílvia V. Conde, Rodrigo Iturriaga, Rodrigo del Rio, Estelle Gauda, Emília C. Monteiro
The International Society for Arterial Chemoreception (ISAC) is a renowned and highly respected association of researchers in the field of arterial chemoreception. Their work has led to many advances in understanding the roles of the carotid body, including its involvement in sympatho-mediated diseases. Now, after many years of research and study, the attendees of the 2020 ISAC meeting in Lisbon, Portugal have compiled their findings into a comprehensive book that covers a broad range of topics related to arterial chemoreception.
Edited by Sílvia V. Conde, Rodrigo Iturriaga, Rodrigo del Rio, Estelle Gauda, and Emília C. Monteiro, this book contains reviews and brief research articles from the participants of the ISAC meeting. It aims to provide readers with a fundamental knowledge of the mechanisms related to chemical sensing in the carotid body while also exploring the adaptive and mal-adaptive responses of arterial chemoreceptors to both O2-dependent and O2-independent mechanisms. The book also discusses their impact on respiratory, cardiovascular, and metabolic homeostasis in healthy and disease conditions.
One of the most impressive aspects of this book is its focus on the non-canonical roles of the carotid body. Over the years, research has shown that carotid body dysfunction is associated with the development and maintenance of highly prevalent diseases such as cardio-metabolic diseases and asthma. With this in mind, the authors of the book delve deeper into the subject, exploring new pathophysiological mechanisms and aiming to find new therapeutic targets for treatment and prevention.
The book is a valuable resource for researchers in the field of arterial chemoreception and provides a reference source that will be used for years to come. The 229-page digital eBook edition is published by Springer and is scheduled for release on June 16, 2023, with the ISBN-10 number 303132370X and ISBN-13 number 978-3031323706.
Reading this book will undoubtedly provide a deeper understanding of the roles of the carotid body and its involvement in various diseases, making it a must-have for scientists, clinicians, and researchers in the field. With its comprehensive coverage of topics related to arterial chemoreceptors, readers will be equipped with the knowledge needed to move the field forward.
So, if you are looking for a book that will enhance your understanding of arterial chemoreceptors and their role in respiratory, cardiovascular, and metabolic homeostasis, then this book is for you. The findings of the ISAC meeting attendees are presented in a clear and concise manner, making it perfect for both novice and experienced researchers alike.
Ordering this book will provide you with a wealth of information and help you stay up-to-date with the latest research and findings in the field of arterial chemoreceptors. It is a highly recommended read that will surely leave you feeling satisfied and informed. Don’t wait any longer, order your copy today and take your knowledge about arterial chemoreceptors to the next level.
