This volume is a compendium of knowledge relating to the biology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and genetics of lipoxygenases and their products, edited as proceedings of an International Congress held in Malta in the summer of 1997. The aim of the book is to broaden the existing knowledge on lipoxygenases and metabolites and to identify directions for future research. Papers based on the Congress lectures are gathered together here under three general headings: enzymology, molecular biology and biological functions of mammalian lipoxygenases; metabolic regulation of lipoxygenases and lipoxygenase inhibitors; and products of the lipoxygenase pathways and their receptors, which present forward-looking presentations.
