Molecular Function and Regulation of Non-coding RNAs in Multifactorial Diseases
Our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the development of multifactorial diseases such as diabetes, autism, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer has been greatly advanced. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), generally including microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs, have recently been found to have potential roles in these diseases, and provide new opportunities for developing both specific biomarkers and therapeutic targets. However, the molecular function and regulation of these RNAs still remains challenging. Numerous studies are focusing on this field in order to fully appreciate the role and regulation of these molecules in human medicine and biology. This e-book aims to bring together new findings on Non-coding RNAs in different complex diseases. It will highlight the characterization, roles, mechanism, and mode of action of these RNAs in complex disorders. We believe that the publications on this topic would be exponentially extended in future. The improved approaches at multiple levels may pave the way for designing and applying new biomarker and therapeutic targets for specific diseases based on these attractive molecules.
Non-coding RNAs in the Vasculature
This volume describes important functions and roles of micro RNAs in the vasculature in health, disease, therapeutics and diagnostics. It shows how miRNAs can be used to improve stem cell-based regenerative therapies of cardiovascular diseases; further the role of miRNAs as regulators in lipoprotein metabolism in the liver and reverse cholesterol transport is depicted, as well as their pathological function in diabetes and atherosclerosis. The book discusses the use of circulating miRNAs as disease biomarkers and shows interesting correlations with the amount of detectable miRNAs in the blood and future cardiovascular risks. This book is edited and written by leading figures in the field and will be an invaluable resource for academics, researchers and students working on non-coding RNAs in biomedicine, physiology and vascular biology.
Neurotrophic Factors
This book provides critical reviews of the role of neurotrophins and their receptors in a wide variety of diseases including neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington’s syndrome, cognitive function, psychiatric disorders such as clinical depression, Rett syndrome, motoneurone disease, spinal cord injury, pain, metabolic disease and cardiovascular disease. It also contains contributions from leaders in the field dealing with the basic biology, transcriptional and post-translational regulation of the neurotrophins and their receptors. The present book will review all recent areas of progress in the study of neurotrophins and their biological roles.
Proinflammatory and Antiinflammatory Peptides
"Analyzes the role of peptides in promoting or suppressing inflammation. Thoroughly examines the therapeutic potential of key peptides, analogs, agonists, and antagonists that influence cell injury and repair."
Arterial Aging and Age-Associated Arterial Diseases
The underlying mechanisms behind aging has long been a great scientific mystery that the biomedical research community has long studied. In developed nations, as the population grows older, increases in life expectancy is increasingly limited by our relatively poor control of chronic aging-associated diseases such as arterial aging. Among age-related conditions that negatively influence longevity. Growing evidence demonstrates that arterial aging is fundamentally caused by a proinflammatory process that begins at birth and results in detrimental effects that affects every organ system. Vascular aging is the leading risk factor for quintessential cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension a...
MicroRNA in Regenerative Medicine
Regulating virtually all biological processes, the genome's 2,654 newly discovered variants of mature microRNAs – short ribonucleic acid molecules found in eukaryotic cells – hold a key role in the body's toolkit of regenerative and reparative capacities. Identifying how to activate and deliver these specialist molecules may aid in the repair and regeneration of major tissue and organ damage in future therapies. In MicroRNA and Regenerative Medicine, Second Edition, over 50 leading experts address foundational and emerging topics in the field. Concisely summarizing and evaluating key findings from new research and their translational application, contributors examine current and future s...
Cardiac Engineering
This volume concentrates on the analysis of the contributions of micro-scale elements on the structure and function of the cardiovascular system through pursuit of the characteristics of the basic elements: cells, organelles, genes, molecules, and ions, as well as the control mechanisms affecting the various interactions and functions. The general goals of this volume are to 1. foster interdisciplinary interaction among leading world scientists and clinical cardiologists in order to identify missing knowledge and catalyze new research ideas; 2. relate basic microscale, molecular, and subcellular phenomena to global clinically manifested cardiac performance; 3. apply conceptual modeling and quantitative analysis to better explore, describe, and understand cardiac physiology; 4. interpret available clinical data and design new revealing experiments; and 5. enhance international cooperation in the search for the secrets of life and their implications in cardiac pathophysiology.
