Biochemical Immunology of Diabetes and Associated Complications offers in-depth coverage of the association of biochemical and immunological aspects of the human body in diabetes. It discusses the suppression and modulation of the immune system and the impact of immunochemicals on the biochemical pathways in diabetes, and associated complications. It enumerates the exigency in knowledge about the immunomodulators as therapeutic targets to cure the syndrome. This book will serve as an important reference for medical practitioners, researchers, medical students, masters and doctoral students of life sciences background. It could also be used as a reference book for science graduates, science teachers and researchers from academia and industry.
