Description

Anti-aging Drugs: From Basic Research to Clinical Practice – eBook PDF

Aging is a natural phenomenon that is unique to all living things. However, gathering findings indicate that senescence could be delayed or prevented by certain approaches. Substantial evidence has surfaced supporting the possibility of radical human health and lifespan extension, particularly through pharmacological modulation of aging. Several natural dietary ingredients and synthetic drugs have been presumed to have geroprotective potential. In the development of several cell, anti-aging therapeutics, insect, and animal models may offer useful starting points prior to human studies.

Anti-aging Drugs (PDF) provides an outline of current research aimed to search for life-extending medications and describes pharmacological aspects of anti-aging medicine. Readers are introduced to the captivating historical background of geroprotection in the first chapter. Detailed information on models for investigating geroprotective drugs precedes a section including anti-aging properties of pharmaceutical compounds, like calorie restriction mimetics, autophagy inducers, senolytics, and mitochondrial antioxidants. Lastly, strategies to translate discoveries from aging research into drugs and healthcare policy perspectives on anti-aging medicine are given to give a complete picture of the field.
A carefully and timely edited collection of chapters by leading researchers in the field, this ebook will be a fascinating and helpful resource for pharmacologists, gerontologists, and any scientifically interested person wishing to know more about the present status of research into anti-aging remedies, challenges, and opportunities.

Review

This ebook would be of interest to a broad audience of scientists who investigate mechanisms underlying biological aging and age-related pathologies, medicinal chemists who apply knowledge of these mechanisms into the development of pharmacological geroprotectors for extending human healthspan and lifespan, clinicians who use these geroprotectors to treat various age-related diseases, and university and medical students who study in these spheres of research and medical practice. The ebook would provide fundamental knowledge and thought-provoking new idea in all these fields of research and medical practice. — Professor Vladimir Titorenko, Concordia University, Canada,
