Imidazole Dipeptides
Carnosine and anserine are two common histidine-derived dipeptides, also known as imidazole dipeptides, found in muscle and brain tissues of animals. Their dietary and nutritional significance lies in their antioxidant properties and a number of investigators are looking at other health benefits of the compounds. This volume surveys the current state of play in these and other areas of interest, including chemistry and biochemistry, immunology and cellular homeostasis. Chapters look in depth at some of the functions and effects in the body particularly with regard to exercise and fatigue, wound healing, cancer treatment and age-related diseases. Providing an up to date, interdisciplinary approach, this book is of great interest to researchers and professionals in chemistry, food science, nutrition, biochemistry, health sciences and sports sciences.
Nutrition, Food and Diet in Ageing and Longevity
This edited volume is a compilation of 30 articles discussing what constitutes food for health and longevity. The aim is to provide up-to-date information, insights, and future tendencies in the ongoing scientific research about nutritional components, food habits and dietary patterns in different cultures. The health-sustaining and health-promoting effects of food are certainly founded in its overall composition of macronutrients and micronutrients. However, the consumption of these nutrients is normally in the form of raw or prepared food from the animal and plant sources. The book is divided into four parts and a conclusion, and successfully convenes the well-established information and k...

Fetal Autonomy and Adaptation
There is now evidence that the fetus adapts to changing conditions, whether internal or external, and that these changes have a profound effect in later life. This evidence of fetal adaptation, however, remains controversial; the conflict arising, at least in part, from a lack of knowledge of fetal pathophysiology. This book draws together the findings of a wealth of distinguished experts in the field of fetal physiology and obstetrics, discussing the physiological mechanisms for fetal adaptation and growth and offering a fascinating insight into the real world of the fetus. Topics covered include current research on fetal baro- and chemo-reflexes, fetal cardiac output, vibroacoustic stimulation, immunological autonomy, hormonal adaptation and fetal behavioral states, among many other issues.
