The book covers a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from pioneering research in the field of classical steroid hormones to very recently discovered orphan receptors and their modulators. State of the art technologies are also discussed in the individual chapters that help to develop a deeper insight into the biochemical and pharmacological principles underlying the biological function of nuclear receptors.
Edited by two experts working at the pioneering pharmaceutical company and major global player in hormone-derived drugs, this handbook and reference systematically treats the drug development aspects of all human nuclear receptors, including recently characterized receptors such as PPAR, FXR and LXR. Authors from leading pharmaceutical companies around the world present examples and real-life data from their own work.
