About this book
Over the past decades, the pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cardiovascular diseases have been benefited significantly from intensive research activities. In order to provide a comprehensive “manual” in a field that has become as broad and deep as cardiovascular medicine, this volume of “Methods in Molecular Medicine” covers a wide spectrum of in vivo and in vitro techniques encompassing biochemical, pharmacological and molecular biology disciplines which are currently used to assess vascular disease progression. Each chapter included in this volume focuses on a specific vascular biology technique and describes various applications as well as caveats of these techniques. The protocols included here are described in detail, allowing beginners with little experience in the field of vascular biology to embark on new research projects.
Reviews
From the reviews:
"This book of detailed protocols for researchers in the field of vascular biology is particularly relevant for scientists using animal and cell culture models. … Researchers new to the techniques commonly used to study cardiovascular disease, including clinician scientists, basic research scientists, graduate students, or residents are the intended audience. … This would be a valuable addition to any laboratory doing research in vascular biology." (Vera P. Shively, Doody’s Review Service, December, 2008)
