About this ebook

This book highlights the role and mechanism of different metal nanocomposites toward oxidative stress-induced metabolic disorders including metabolic pathways affected by oxidative stress and related pathophysiology. The book includes an illustrative discussion about the methods of synthesis, characterization, and biomedical applications of metal nanocomposites. It focuses on the therapeutic approaches for metabolic disorders due to oxidative stress by nano delivery systems. Moreover, the book includes chapters on nanotherapeutic approaches toward different diseases, including diabetes mellitus, obesity, cardiovascular disorders, cancers, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in nanocomposites, nano delivery systems, and bioengineering.
