Descriere

In this book the authors review the field and explore the potential role of RNAi and other RNA technologies in cardiovascular medicine and research. They highlight the impressive recent progress but also the hurdles that still must be overcome before this promising technology is finally ready for translation and clinical use.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death worldwide. In 2005 17.5 million people, representing 30% of all global deaths, died of cardiovascular disease. For this reason every effort needs to be made to improve the early diagnosis and treatment procedures for combating this disease. This book - edited by Professors Erdmann and Barciszewski, both internationally recognised experts in the field of RNA molecular biology, and Professor Poller, an internationally respected expert in cardiology - will offer more than an introduction to these fields. More importantly, it will also lead the reader to the newest developments in RNA methods and technologies and show how they are currently employed for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease. This book is also a must for all those interested in knowing more about the molecular medicine of tomorrow and how it will be revolutionised by its newest approach - RNA technologies.

Caracteristici

Currently no comprehensive overview on potential and challenges of RNAi and other RNA technologies for basic cardiovascular biology and for the clinical management of patients with cardiovascular disorders
Book will be comprehensive in that it does not only treat the phenomenon of RNAi in all its facets (as most recently published books), but does explicitly cover the many other aspects of the “RNA World” (pathogenic and therapeutic potential of microRNAs, aptamer technology, etc.), too
With this significantly broadened scope as compared to currently existing books it appears to be an urgently needed new publication
