Glycosciences: Status and Perspectives (Bioscience)

A comprehensive survey of the topic, ranging from basic molecular research to clinical applications. Critical reviews by leading experts in each field summarize the state of knowledge and discuss the anticipated benefits of novel approaches and strategies. These include the impact of modern analysis techniques on glycobiology, the use of synthetic neoglycoproteins, or the clinical consequences of new insights into the physiological role of lectins and glycoconjugates in pathology, oncology, immunity, neuroscience and reproduction medicine. Throughout, the aim is to separate realistic applications from mere hopes.Gabius, Hans-Joachim is the author of 'Glycosciences: Status and Perspectives (Bioscience)', published 2002 under ISBN 9783527308880 and ISBN 3527308881.
