Organelles in Disease, Paperback / softback Book

Organelles in Disease Paperback / softback

Edited by Stine Helene Falsig Pedersen, Diane L. Barber

Part of the Reviews of Physiology, Biochemistry and Pharmacology series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book sheds light on how dysregulated organelle functions contribute to the pathology and progression of human diseases.

To offer a broad perspective, they discuss basic, translational, and clinical aspects across scales, from molecules to cells, tissues and organisms.

Rather than providing a comprehensive introduction to the field, the authors focus on recent advances in organelle research, with each chapter inviting readers to consider today’s key questions in the respective field. This book reviews the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi Appartus, Lysosomes and other membrane-enclosed organelles, demonstrating how their dysregulated function contributes to various pathologies.

The chapters not only offer a platform for new perspectives but also stimulate further investigations. Given the translational nature of this subject, this book is a valuable resource for physiologists and clinicians alike. Chapter "Lipid Droplets in Cancer" is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
