Summary:The book Heat Shock Proteins in Human Diseases provides the most comprehensive review on contemporary knowledge on the role of heat shock proteins (HSP) in various types of human diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease, microbiology and inflammation. These diseases were specifically chosen due to their dismal prognosis, the survival benefit offered by the current standards do not greatly impact the overall survival statistics with the disease and are associated with toxicity. Using an integrative approach, the contributors provide a synopsis of the most current updates on the state of HSP in human diseases. Key basic and clinical research laboratories from major universities, academic medical hospitals, biotechnology and pharmaceutical laboratories around the world have contributed articles that review present research activity on the role of heat shock proteins in human diseases and importantly project the field into the future. The book is a must read for graduate students. medical students, basic science researchers and postdoctoral scholars in the fields of Cancer Biology, Oncology, Cardiovascular Diseases, Microbiology, Inflammation, Translational Medicine, Clinical Research, Biotechnology, Cell & Molecular Medicine, Pharmaceutical Scientists and Researchers involved in Drug Discovery.
