From pathology to treatment, MicroRNAs in Diseases and Disorders highlights the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the development and progression of a variety of diseases, including cancer, neurological disease, endocrine disease and autoimmune disease, and underscores the utilization of miRNA targets in the treatment of these conditions. Providing a comprehensive account, this book also includes the identification of miRNAs as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for disease, as well as evaluates translational value from clinical trials using synthesized and functionalized miRNA mimics and inhibitors. With a global contribution list and chapters from leading experts across the field, MicroRNAs in Diseases and Disorders is an invaluable reference to miRNA researchers and health professionals in a variety of disease areas in government, academia and industry. The book will also appeal to pharmaceutical and medicinal chemists with an interest in miRNA targeting therapeutics, as well as to advanced students in chemical biology and drug discovery.
First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
The book serves as a comprehensive resource for scientists and clinicians studying the role of non-coding RNAs in inflammation (viral infections, wound inflammation), human inflammatory diseases (i.e. rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, diabetes) and innate immunity. It provides a universal reference work comprising both basic and specialized information. Given that ncRNAs represent new therapeutic targets, this volume will also be of interest to industrial biomedical researchers and those involved in drug development.

This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
This book focuses on the geographical aspects of the epidemiology of diabetes. It examines such diverse populations throughout the world, including American Indians, Latin America, Africa, China, Japan, and the Middle East. The authors also provide a thorough examination of the economic costs of the disease.
The past two decades have seen explosive gains in our understanding of the physiology and basic mechanisms of insulin action and the critical importance of insulin resistance in the pathogenesis of clinical disorders such as non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, essential hypertension and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Insulin Resistance offers the first comprehensive review of the field, with integrated chapters providing up to date coverage of the essential components of basic and clinical research that have contributed to current understanding of the topic. There are chapters on basic mechanisms of insulin action, in depth discussions of insulin resistance syndromes from epidemiological, clinical and biochemical viewpoints and a discussion of therapeutic approaches to insulin resistance. Insulin Resistance will be an invaluable resource for clinicians and scientists with an interest in the mechanisms of insulin action, the clinical sequelae of hyperinsulinemia and future therapies of insulin resistance.
