New section on the role of transcription factors (PPARs) in regulation of lipid catabolism 18 Amino Acid Oxidation and the Production of Urea Read online (or offline) with all the highlighting and notetaking tools you need to be successful in this course. All content has been streamlined so the text is focused on what is most important and useful to modern students and for future reference, and organized around principles for better understanding, providing a new learning path for students, through the emphasis on the fundamental principles of biochemistry. New Medical section on G protein coupled receptors (GCPRs) discusses the range of diseases for which drugs target GPCRs New medical box on the use of topoisomerase inhibitors in the treatment of bacterial infections and cancer, includes material on ciprofloxacin (the antibiotic effective for anthrax)

Achieve supports educators and students throughout the full range of instruction, including assets suitable for pre-class preparation, in-class active learning, and post-class study and assessment. The pairing of a powerful new platform with outstanding biochemistry content provides an unrivalled learning experience. At Medicalstudyzone.com, we take user experience very seriously and thus always strive to improve. We hope that you people find our blog beneficial!

Interactive Metabolic Map allows students to navigate and zoom between overviews and detailed views of the most commonly taught metabolic pathways. Embedded Tours take students through the pathways step-by-step, helping them to both visualize concepts in isolation and understand how concepts are connected. By examining the pathways in this way, students are better equipped to understand the meaning of those connections. Assessment questions help students solidify their understanding and provide more structure to their learning. *Metabolic Pathways include: glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, the citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, the pentose phosphate pathway, fatty acid synthesis, the urea cycle, and β oxidation. Updated discussion of the integration of fuel metabolism in fed and starved states in diabetes III INFORMATION PATHWAYS Instructor Activity Guides, developed with instructors and tied to the principles framework, include both instructor material and assessable student material New descriptions of volatile lipids used as signals by plants, and pigments of bird feathers derived from colored lipids in plant foodsTools for understanding are provided including ‘Key Conventions’ and ‘Special Themes’ (Metabolic Integration, Obesity, and Diabetes, Evolution) as well as ‘Medical Insights and Applications-Icons’ used throughout the book denote material of special medical interest and updated to reflect the most current content. Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry, 8e continues to help students navigate the complex discipline of biochemistry with a clear and coherent presentation. Renowned authors David Nelson, Michael Cox, and new co-author Aaron Hoskins have focused this eighth edition around the fundamental principles to help students understand and navigate the most important aspects of biochemistry. Text features and digital resources in the new Achieve platform emphasize this focus on the principles, while coverage of recent discoveries and the most up-to-date research provide fascinating context for learning the dynamic discipline of biochemistry.
