"Human Physiology Annual Volume 2024" ed. by Kunihiro Sakuma, Kotomi Sakai, Tomasz Brzozowski

This book focuses on stroke-induced muscle atrophy, lung disease, and myocardial glycation, dealing respectively with their mechanisms, altered immune responses, and effects on epithelial cell physiology.

Human physiology is the scientific exploration of the various functions (physical, biochemical, and mechanical properties) of the human body, its organs, and its component cells. The endocrine and nervous systems play an important role in maintaining homeostasis in the human body. Gut bacteria form a complex ecosystem through metabolite exchange with the host and are deeply involved in the pathogenesis of diseases (obesity, diabetes, cancer). The book also discusses research trends in gut bacteria and how to diagnose patients with amyloidosis. It will be of interest to professionals involved in clinical practice, as well as to medical and healthcare students and even researchers involved in human physiology.
