Glycobiology and Medicine by John S Axford
Over the past decade significant advances in technology have opened up the field of glycobiology. In particular, improved methods for carbohydrate analysis have led to important biochemical observations demonstrating that sugars play crucial roles in human physiology. It is clear that many diseases are associated with characteristic changes in glycosylation and furthermore, the possibility of modulating glycan processing to treat disease is beginning to be realised. This volume summarises some of the important recent developments in glycobiology and medicine. We highlighted some of the numerous areas in which there are glycosylation dependant pathological mechanisms causing common diseases. The next decade will undoubtedly see novel diagnostic and therapeutic techniques originating from these observations. This will significantly enhance our ability to combat infection and diseases such as bacterial and viral infections, some cancers, glycolipid storage disorders, systemic autoimmune disease and disorders that involve cytokine related inflammatory mechanisms. These topics were discussed at the 6th Jenner Glycobiology and Medicine meeting. This meeting received a European Commission Education grant (No. HPCF-2002-00250).

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
