The inhibition of angiogenesis is an effective mechanism of slowing down tumor growth and malignancies. The process of induction or pro-angiogenesis is highly desirable for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, wound healing disorders, etc. Efforts to understand the molecular basis, both for inhibition and induction, have yielded fascinating results. Anti-angiogenesis Drug Discovery and Development provides an excellent compilation of well-written reviews on various aspects of the anti-angiogenesis process. These reviews have been contributed by leading practitioners in drug discovery science and highlight the major developments in this exciting field in the last two decades. The feast of these reader-friendly reviews on topics of great scientific importance – many of which are considered significant medical breakthroughs, makes this book excellent reading both for the novice as well as for expert medicinal chemists and clinicians. This volume brings together 5 reviews on these topics: -Beta-blockers for treating premature retinopathy -Anti-angiogenic activity of disintegrin-based, synthetic cyclic KTS peptides -Anti-angiogenic therapy of lung cancer -Oral anti-angiogenic therapy for NSCLC -Angiogenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma

Obesity is a complex health problem, caused by a number of factors such as excessive food intake, lack of physical activity, genetic predisposition, endocrine disorders, medications and psychiatric illnesses. Onset of obesity in both the developing and the developed world has reached epidemic proportions. In response to this, efforts to control and treat obesity have also been vigorously pursued, ranging from raising awareness about lifestyle changes to the discovery and development of safe and effective anti-obesity drugs. Anti-obesity Drug Discovery and Development is focused on this very important area of healthcare research. The third volume of this series is dedicated to anti-obesity treatments including updates on new therapeutics for obesity, Nesfatin-1 and its therapeutic uses, the role of proteomics in pediatric anti-obesity treatment, the role of oxidative stress in childhood obesity and a review of data on gut microbiota as a treatment option for obesity.
