Nueva edición del texto clásico en Farmacología y de referencia para los estudiantes de Medicina en el que se aborda de forma exhaustiva, pero clara y organizada el mecanismo de acción de los fármacos más comúnmente usados, tanto a nivel molecular o celular, como de los mecanismos fisiológicos sobre los que actúan.Se ha mantenido la organización general del libro, dividido en 6 grandes secciones en las que se ofrece una descripción de los efectos y usos de los diferentes fármacos junto con su acción sobre las vías de señalización subyacentes a todos los procesos fisiológicos que ocurren en el ser humano. En cuanto a las novedades, si bien todos los capítulos se han actualizado, algunos de ellos han sufrido grandes cambios. Así cabe destacar: Cap 5 (se han incluido un mayor número de fármacos RNA), Cap 24 (recientes avances en la medición de la presión de oxígeno), Cap 40 (se ha puesto el foco en el Alzheimer y la demencia vascular y la asociada a los cuerpos de Levy), Cap 43 (nueva sección destinada al tratamiento del dolor crónico), Cap 51 (nuevos diagramas que ilustran los lugares de acción de los antibióticos a nivel de los ribosomas), Cap 53 (información sobre el modo de replicación de los retrovirales y una sección específica de Covid19) y Cap 57 ( gran y amplia cobertura de los nuevos fármacos anticancerosos). Se ha introducido dos nuevos capítulos. Uno de ellos dedicado a la Farmacología ocular y otro dedicado al tratamiento farmacológico de la migraña en el que se incluyen los nuevos antagonistas de CGRP y su uso profiláctico para la migraña. La nueva edición incluye acceso al e-book en español en el que se incluye contenido adicional (casos clínicos y preguntas de autoevaluación) también en español.

Progress and Prospect of Nanocarriers: Design, Concept, and Recent Advances examines the different nanocarriers that are currently being developed for specific applications in biomedical drug delivery, disease management, diagnosis and therapy. Nanosized drug delivery systems have gained tremendous amounts of clinical interest due to their effective bio-distribution and enhanced pharmacokinetic and selective targeting capability which results in high therapeutic potential, low side effects, and the generation of cost-effective drug delivery systems. Numerous effective nanocarriers have been evolving, including polymeric nanoparticles, liposomes, microspheres, dendrimers, and carbon nanotubes.This book is a helpful reference for scientists and students in the fields of drug delivery, biomaterials and nanomedicine, as well as scientists and engineers in industrial disciplines of drug delivery and drug formulation.
