More DescriptionCartilage, Volume 3: Biomedical Aspects is a compilation of articles that covers the various aspects of age-related cartilage deterioration, bone disease, and genetic mutation. The book is composed of 10 chapters that highlight different subjects related to the diseases and malformations of cartilage. Relevant topics that are discussed in each chapter include the formation of cartilage outside the confines of the skeleton; aspects of age-related changes in cartilage; tumors that invade cartilage; molecular and biochemical bases of cartilage mutations; and the immunological and bioelectrical properties of cartilage. Physicians, pathologists, orthopedic surgeons, and those working on the human skeletal system will find this text a very good reference material.
