商品描述

  • The first comprehensive book on the biology and ecology of pharmaceutical echinoderms.
  • Contributed by scientists of both marine biology and pharmacy disciplines.
  • All reported echinoderm species producing secondary metabolites are dealt with.
  • Having previously only been known as nutritional invertebrates, a book exploring the contribution of the echinoderms as sources of secondary metabolites for therapeutic compounds is timely.
  • All 200+ images are produced in full color, providing a high-quality reference.
  • This book provides the taxonomy, common name, global distribution, habitat, diagnostic features and pharmaceutical compounds (along with their activities) of 150 species of ecinoderms along with over 200 detailed illustrations in glorious color.

    Among the biota of marine habitats, the echinoderms, which include sea stars (starfish), brittle stars and basket stars, sea urchins and sand dollars, sea cucumbers, and sea lilies or feather stars, are known for their importance as promising sources of bioactive compounds for development of pharmaceuticals. Their potential therapeutic applications have been growing rapidly in the treatment of many diseases.

  • 第一本關於藥用棘皮動物的生物學和生態學的綜合性書籍。
  • 由海洋生物學和藥學領域的科學家共同撰寫。
  • 所有報導的產生次級代謝物的棘皮動物物種均有涉及。
  • 這本書探討棘皮動物作為治療化合物的次級代謝物來源的貢獻,正值其從僅被認知為營養無脊椎動物的時候。
  • 所有200多幅圖片均為全彩印刷,提供高品質的參考資料。
  • 本書提供150種棘皮動物的分類學、通用名稱、全球分佈、棲息地、診斷特徵及藥用化合物(及其活性),並附有200多幅精美的詳細插圖。

    在海洋棲息地的生物群中,棘皮動物包括海星、脆星、籃星、海膽、沙元、海參以及海百合或羽星,以其作為開發藥物的生物活性化合物的潛在來源而聞名。它們在治療許多疾病的潛在療法應用迅速增長。
