Post-Genomic Cardiology

Autor José Marín-García
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 iul 2014
In this second edition of Post-Genomic Cardiology, developing and new technologies such as translational genomics, next generation sequencing (NGS), bioinformatics, and systems biology in molecular cardiology are assessed in light of their therapeutic potential. As new methods of mutation screening emerge, both for the genome and for the “epigenome,” comprehensive understanding of the many mutations that underlie cardiovascular diseases and adverse drug reactions is within our reach.
This book, written by respected cardiologist José Marín-García, features discussion on the Hap-Map: the largest international effort to date aiming to define the differences between our individual genomes. This unique reference further reviews and investigates genome sequences from our evolutionary relatives that could help us decipher the signals of genes, and offers a comprehensive and critical evaluation of regulatory elements from the complicated network of the background DNA.


  • Offers updated discussion of cutting-edge molecular techniques including new genomic sequencing / NGS / Hap-Map / bioinformatics / systems biology approaches
  • Analyzes mitochondria dynamics and their role in cardiac dysfunction, up-to-date analysis of cardio-protection, and cardio-metabolic syndrome
  • Presents recent translational studies, gene therapy, transplantation of stem cells, and pharmacological treatments in CVDs

Recenzii

"This Second edition of Post-Genomic Cardiology (PCG) deals with what promises to be the cardiology of the future. As the role of genetic screening in cardiology is strengthened, and as research on the multiple signaling pathways involved in cardiac organogenesis and pathology progresses, this 2nd edition of PCG further attempts to integrate known facts with what is still developing and with what is slowly becoming known. New areas of interest to cardiologists and researchers include systems biology, the constructive cycle of computational model building, and experimental verification. These are capable of providing the input necessary for exciting new discoveries, including the management of diseases in a “personalized” way. The book is fascinating because it introduces a field that no one with a minimum amount of scientific interest will be able to avoid in the very near future. Extensively referenced, and thoroughly researched, this book presents well-written and organized chapters, each with a summary of the important points discussed, followed by exhaustive bibliographies. A detailed glossary clearly defines the many acronyms used throughout the book. Unquestionably, this volume will be of great interest and use to clinical and research cardiologists, pharmacologists and genetics investigators; and to students of basic sciences. Dr. Marin-Garcia - author and editor of this 2nd edition of PGC has done an outstanding job of completing this challenging task." --Dr. Daniel Shindler
"This is a great book." --Dr. A. Bayes de Luna
