The book is organized in five sections. An Introductory section provides the background and key features of C-peptide’s physiological function and how its deficiency contributes to complications. The second section describes up-to-date information on the biochemical and molecular actions of C-peptide, including membrane binding, interactions with insulin as well as the interaction between C-peptide and zinc and effects on microvascular vasoreactivity. The third section summarizes in vivo animal studies of the type 1 diabetic complications. The fourth section reviews the clinical efforts of C-peptide on inflammation, cardiovascular complication, neuropathy and nephropathy. Finally, in the Conclusions section, a summary of the present state of C-peptide, outstanding questions, and the likely direction of the field are offered. Developed by the foremost investigators in the rapidly moving field of C-peptide research, \u003ci\u003eDiabetes \u0026amp; C-Peptide: Scientific and Clinical Aspects\u003c\/i\u003e is an important contribution to the literature for all researchers and physicians concerned about type 1 diabetes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Humana\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-08-23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781493959570\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-61779-391-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 169\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Humana Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47388076081292,"sku":"9781493959570","price":107.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781493959570.jpg?v=1775757447","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781493959570","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
