An increasingly aging population will add to the number of individuals
suffering from amyloid. Protein Misfolding Diseases provides a
systematic overview of the current and emerging therapies for these
types of protein misfolding diseases, including Alzheimer's,
Parkinson's, and Mad Cow. The book emphasizes therapeutics in an amyloid
disease context to help students, faculty, scientific researchers, and
doctors working with protein misfolding diseases bridge the gap between
basic science and pharmaceutical applications to protein misfolding
disease.
