This work collects current research on the role of nutrition and diet in modifying oxidative damage in the progression of disease, concentrating on nutrient-gene interactions and the intracellular signaling network. The book addresses the dietary modulation of particular gene expression systems and highlights the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms that involve upstream signaling molecules, such as kinases and transcription factors in the context of their therapeutic potential. It describes nutrients' actions on the activation of an antioxidant and inflammatory transcription factor and the induction of their target gene expression. Various chemopreventive agents, food phytochemicals, flavonols, and polyphenols are discussed. For those working in the fields of dietary components, molecular mechanisms, and health benefits, the book presents a useful tool for understanding the action of dietary components. Surh teaches biochemistry and molecular oncology at Seoul National University. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
