About this ebook

"Apolipoprotein E in Health and Disease: Unravelling its Intricate Roles" delves into the multifaceted functions of Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) across various health conditions and diseases. This comprehensive volume offers an in-depth exploration of ApoE, illuminating its structural insights, functional significance, and genetic variability. Each chapter examines the role of ApoE in different disease contexts, including cardiovascular diseases, Alzheimer's disease, neurological disorders, metabolic syndrome, liver health, cancer, and inflammatory disorders. Key chapters investigate ApoE's impact on lipid metabolism, atherosclerosis, and heart health, while also probing its involvement in genetic predispositions and mechanistic implications in Alzheimer's disease. The book extends its exploration to the broader influence of ApoE on cognitive decline and other neurological conditions, metabolic health, liver function, cancer risk, and immune modulation. With a strong focus on the pharmacogenetics of ApoE, the book paves the way for precision medicine, offering insights into how ApoE genotypes influence medication responses and therapeutic strategies. Future prospects and challenges in harnessing ApoE for disease management are discussed, alongside its role in infectious diseases, genetic engineering innovations, and targeted drug delivery systems. Written for a diverse audience including researchers, clinicians, students, and industry professionals, this book serves as an invaluable resource for understanding the critical roles of ApoE in health and disease. It provides a holistic view of current research, making it suitable for both experts in the field and those seeking an introduction to the topic. Through its comprehensive approach, the book aims to foster a deeper understanding of ApoE and inspire further research and clinical applications in this dynamic field.• Provides a comprehensive examination of Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) in various health conditions and diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, Alzheimer's, neurological disorders, and cancer.• Delivers detailed insights into the genetic variability of ApoE, explaining how different genotypes influence disease risk and therapeutic responses.• Integrates perspectives from biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, neurology, and cardiology to offer a holistic understanding of ApoE.• Highlights the pharmacogenetics of ApoE, illustrating its potential in personalized medicine and targeted therapeutic strategies.
