Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 (Gsk-3) and Its Inhibitors: Drug Discovery and Development

By Ana Martínez, Miguel Medina, Ana Castro

Many researchers believe that GSK-3 and its inhibitors could lead to effective treatments for neurogenerative disorders, type II diabetes, depression and bipolar disorder, and some forms of cancer. This book provides a thorough introduction to GSK-3, presents up-to-date information, and mentions the birth of several chemical families of GSK-3 inhibitors with varying selectivity. It's a great reference for researchers in drug design and development.
