Recent Advances in Studies on Cardiac Structure and Metabolism
Volume 6:
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY AND MORPHOLOGY OF MYOCARDIAL CELL ALTERATIONS
Edited by Albrecht Fleckenstein, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Physiology, University of Freiburg; and George Rona, M.D., Ph.D., F.R.C.P. (C), Professor of Pathology, McGill University
Featuring contributions by eminent international specialists, this volume provides authoritative coverage of the latest studies on alterations in myocardial cell metabolism that appear to be decisive in the production of structural damage and on the morphological manifestations of myocardial cell injury. This material clearly demonstrates the striking interrelationship between metabolic disorders and structural decay; and by coordinating the most significant findings about myocardial necrotization in a single, cohesive reference, this book represents a highly practical source of key information for clinicians and experimentalists alike.

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY AND MORPHOLOGY OF MYOCARDIAL CELL ALTERATIONS
Edited by Albrecht Fleckenstein, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Physiology, University of Freiburg; and George Rona, M.D., Ph.D., F.R.C.P. (C), Professor of Pathology, McGill University
Featuring contributions by eminent international specialists, this volume provides authoritative coverage of the latest studies on alterations in myocardial cell metabolism that appear to be decisive in the production of structural damage and on the morphological manifestations of myocardial cell injury. This material clearly demonstrates the striking interrelationship between metabolic disorders and structural decay; and by coordinating the most significant findings about myocardial necrotization in a single, cohesive reference, this book represents a highly practical source of key information for clinicians and experimentalists alike.
The 49 main articles are organized into nine main sections:
• Myocardial Fiber Necrotization by Intracellular Ca Overload — Cardioprotection by Ca-Antagonistic Substances
• Isoproteronol-Induced Disorders of Myocardial Metabolism
• Role of Calcium in the Hereditary Cardiomyopathy of the Syrian Hamster
• Metabolic and Functional Alterations in the Hereditary Myopathic Hamster Heart
• Normal infrastructure
• Changes Due to Mechanical Overload and Hypertrophy
• Ultrastructural Manifestations of Hypoxia and Ischemia
• Non-Coronarogenic Myocardial Cell Injury
• Myocardial Cell Damage Produced by Viruses
Pathophysiology and Morphology of Myocardial Cell Alterations is based upon the edited proceedings of the Sixth Annual Symposium of the International Study Group for Research in Cardiac Metabolism held in Freiburg, Germany. Other material from this important international meeting is presented in Volumes 5 and 7 of Recant Advances in Studies on Cardiac Structure and Metabolism, described on the back cover of this jacket.
