Anti-Aging Pharmacology
Alexander M. Vaiserman
Anti-Aging Pharmacology provides an overview of current research aimed at the pharmacological modulation of aging including a discussion of the growing number of novel drug classes with promising anti-aging potential. The aging process is the main risk factor for all chronic diseases affecting the elderly. With lifespans extending across the globe, these chronic diseases are placing a larger burden on individuals and health care systems. Therefore, slowing down the aging rate could be more effective in delaying aging-associated chronic disorders than combating them one by one, which is the conventional approach in a current disease-based pharmacological paradigm. Different drug classes shown to have pro-longevity properties in experimental models are being increasingly developed and investigated in pre-clinical and clinical trials to determine whether they have anti-aging potential as well. This book contains work of the world's leading researchers in the field. It begins with the conceptual and methodological background of anti-aging pharmacology, explains the basic classes of anti-aging drugs, explores phytochemicals, and finally looks to outcomes of anti-aging developments and future directions. Anti-Aging Pharmacology will be of interest to a wide audience, ranging from pharmacologists, medicinal chemists, and academic researchers in gerontology, biomedical sciences, and those in medical practice.
