Free Radicals and the Liver

Based on the results of the latest congress of the European
Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL), this volume
makes excellent reading since it explores in detail the
role of free radical reactions in liver diseases.
Studies in recent years using various methods have shown
that free radicals play an important role in toxic liver
disorders. For this reason, the current scientific knowledge
is presented in this balanced, clinical portrayal. The
account refers to the many observations, experiencesand
evaluations that have been made both clinically and
experimentally.
Two major areas discussed concern the pathophysiological
changes by free radicals and the therapeutic possibilities
that have come to light.
