Physician's Guide to the Diagnosis, Treatment, and Follow-Up of Inherited Metabolic Diseases
This updated and enlarged second edition is a unique source of information on the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of metabolic diseases. The clinical and laboratory data characteristic of rare metabolic conditions can be bewildering for clinicians and laboratory personnel alike – reference laboratory data is scattered, and clinical descriptions can be obscure. The new Physician’s Guide with the additional more than 600 diseases now featured, documents 1200 conditions grouped according to type of disorder, organ system affected (e.g. liver, kidney, etc) or phenotype (e.g. neurological, hepatic, etc). It includes relevant clinical findings and highlights the pathological values for diagnostic metabolites. Guidance on appropriate biochemical genetic testing is also provided and established experimental therapeutic protocols are described, with recommendations on follow-up and monitoring. The authors are acknowledged experts, and the book is a valuable desk reference for all who deal with inherited metabolic diseases.

Physician's Guide to the Treatment and Follow-Up of Metabolic Diseases
This reference provides concise information on the treatment and management of inherited metabolic diseases for the clinician. World experts cover all commonalities of therapy giving practical advice and guidance for daily practice. All established treatment protocols in this quickly developing area of medicine are clearly described, including follow-up protocols and monitoring. Alternative and experimental therapies are also described and evaluated. Numerous tables, figures, and several indices (symptom, disease name, tests, etc.) allow rapid access to specific details. This book is invaluable to anyone dealing with patients with inherited metabolic diseases, pediatricians, internists, neurologists, and clinical geneticists.
Physician’s Guide to the Laboratory Diagnosis of Metabolic Diseases
This second edition of The Physician's Guide provides paediatricians and other physicians with a unique aid to help them select the correct diagnosis from a bewildering array of complex clinical and laboratory data. Delay and mistakes in the diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases may have devastating consequences. The guide, which includes a CD-ROM, describes 298 disorders which have been grouped into 35 chapters according to the type of condition. Within each group of disorders, chapters provide tables of pertinent clinical findings as well as reference and pathological values for crucial metabolites. Relevant metabolic pathways and diagnostic flow charts are included. There are three indices to make the book as user-friendly as possible.
Current Progress in iPSC-derived Cell Types
The series Advances in Stem Cell Biology is a timely and expansive collection of comprehensive information and new discoveries in the field of stem cell biology. Current Progress in iPSC-derived Cell Types, Volume 10 addresses how induced pluripotent stem cells can be differentiated into different cell types. Somatic cells can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells by the expression of specific transcription factors. These cells have been transforming biomedical research over the last 15 years. This volume will address the advances in research of how research of induced pluripotent stem cells can be reprogrammed to develop new treatment technologies in regenerative medicine. The volume is written for researchers and scientists in stem cell therapy, cell biology, regenerative medicine and organ transplantation; and is contributed by world-renowned authors in the field. - Provides overview of the fast-moving field of stem cell biology and function, regenerative medicine and therapeutics - Covers iPSCs derived cardiomyocytes, skeletal muscles, brown adipocytes, airway epithelial cells, and much more - Contributed by world-renown experts in the field
Molecular Mechanisms of Cell Differentiation in Gonad Development
This book presents the current state of knowledge on the origin and differentiation of cell lines involved in the development of the vertebrate male and female gonads with particular emphasis on the mouse. It also discusses the processes leading to the testis- and ovary-specific structures and functions. The individual chapters review the origin and differentiation of the somatic cells of the genital ridges; the formation and migration of primordial germ cells in mouse and man; the gonadal supporting cell lineage and mammalian sex determination; differentiation of Sertoli and granulosa cells; mesonephric cell migration into the gonads and vascularization; origin and differentiation of androg...
Recent Advances in Adolescent Health
Adolescents experience many challenges in their sexual and reproductive lives, therefore, appropriate and timely specialist advice and care can do much to alleviate problems and misconceptions, and enable young people to move forward with their lives in confidence. Not many doctors are familiar with the delicacy and sensitivity an adolescent girl needs to be treated with as she needs special attention and a quiet, friendly environment. The Adolescent Health Committee of FOGSI aims to achieve this task by establishing Adolescent Friendly Health Centers. Our mission is to sensitize the youth of our country, through various projects we will be dealing in different aspects of health, i.e. physic...

Genetic Steroid Disorders
Following development of the fetal bipotential gonad into a testis, male genital differentiation requires testicular androgens. Fetal Leydig cells produce testosterone that is converted to dihydrotestosterone in genital skin, resulting in labioscrotal fusion. An alternative “backdoor” pathway of dihydrotestosterone synthesis that bypasses testosterone has been described in marsupials, but its relevance to human biology has been uncertain. The classic and backdoor pathways share many enzymes, but a 3α-reductase, AKR1C2, is unique to the backdoor pathway. Human AKR1C2 mutations cause disordered sexual differentiation, establishing that both pathways are required for normal human male genital development. These observations show that fetal dihydrotestosterone acts both hormonally and as a paracrine factor, substantially revising the classic paradigm for fetal male sexual development.
