The Cerebellum and Its Disorders
The first comprehensive text on the cerebellum and its disorders for many years.
Neuromuscular Disorders of Infancy, Childhood, and Adolescence
Neuromuscular disorders are diagnosed across the lifespan and create many challenges especially with infants, children and adolescents. This new edition of the definitive reference, edited by the established world renowned authorities on the science, diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular disorders in childhood is a timely and needed resource for all clinicians and researchers studying neuromuscular disorders, especially in childhood. The Second Edition is completely revised to remain current with advances in the field and to insure this remains the standard reference for clinical neurologists and clinical research neurologists. The Second Edition retains comprehensive coverage while shortening the total chapter count to be an even more manageable and effective reference. - Carefully revised new edition of the classic reference on neuromuscular disorders in infancy, childhood and adolescence. - Definitive coverage of the basic science of neuromuscular disease and the latest diagnosis and treatment best practices. - Includes coverage of clinical phenomenology, electrophysiology, histopathology, molecular genetics and protein chemistry
Genetics of Movement Disorders
Hereditary or genetic diseases featuring involuntary movements constitute a major aspect of the practice of neurology, functional neurosurgery, genetics, and many areas of basic and applied neuroscience research. Describing the current knowledge on these disorders, Genetics of Movement Disorders brings together information essential for clinicians, geneticists, and neuroscientists in one source. Utilizing a convenient and accessible format, the book is designed to allow easy identification of relevant information, with the overall organization of topics following established phenotypic classifications of movement disorders such as Parkinsonian syndromes, chorea, ataxia, and major categories ...
Current Neurology
The goal of the CURRENT NEUROLOGY series is to address the latest advances in the Neurosciences and their application to Neurologic disease. No field is changing more rapidly than Neurology, and all Neurologists have an increasing responsibility to use this information to help devise meaningful therapeutic strategies for the patients. To help achieve this goal, several areas for in-depth discussions are selected. The rapid advances in the muscular dystrophies is addressed with specific emphasis as to how these genetic breakthroughs will impact the therapy of these disorders in the future. Also discussed is therapeutic Neuro-ophthalmology which has always been of clinical importance for importance for Neurologists. Finally, the problem of pain is extremely important, and the latest understanding of neuropeptides and neuronal re-organization are discussed as the basis for future therapeutic approaches.
Triple Repeat Diseases of the Nervous Systems
World of Unstable Mutations The book "Triplet Repeat Diseases of the Nervous System" overviews the lat est data on several disorders associated with unstable mutations. This field of re search is progressing extremely fast. The number of polymorphic mutations and diseases caused by these mutations is increasing almost every month. There is a strong interest to molecular bases of triplet repeat disorders. This is explained by growing necessity to develop molecular approaches for cure of these diseases. There fore, the authors of this book describe unstable mutations with the emphasis on molecular pathology. Broad discussion is presented on how polymorphic expan sions cause cell dysfunction. o...
Cumulative Subject Index, Volumes 20-39
Volume 40 of Advances in Genetics brings together a complete listing of subjects covered in Volumes 20-39 of this premier series. In one easy-to-use source, the interested librarian, student, and researcher can find references to specific articles on topics such as tumor suppressor genes, chromosome rearrangements, apoptosis, bax genes, the human genome project, muscular dystrophy, gene therapy, transcription factors, and transgenic mouse models. This cumulative subject index will serve not only as a complete overview of the major topics published in Advances in Genetics, but also as an indicator of the progress made in genetic research over the years.
Congenital Heart Disease
Prominent researchers and clinicians describe in detail all the latest laboratory techniques currently used to define the molecular genetic basis for congenital malformations of the heart, cardiomyopathies, cardiac tumors, and arrythmias in human patients. In particular, the methods can be used to identify in clinical samples those genetic mutations responsible for such congenital abnormalities as Marfan syndrome, Williams-Beuren Syndrome, Alagille syndrome, Noonan syndrome, and Friedreich ataxia. The authors also discuss the limitations of identifying patients with congenital heart disease using these techniques during both pre- and postnatal periods.
Molecular Neurology
Why a book on molecular neurology? Molecular neuroscience is advancing at a spectacular rate. As it does so, it is revealing important clues to the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of neurological diseases, and to the therapeutic targets that they present. Medicines work by targeting molecules. The more specific the targeting, the more specific the actions, and the fewer the side effects. Molecular Neurology highlights, for graduate and MD-PhD students, research fellows and research-oriented clinical fellows, and researchers in the neurosciences and other biomedical sciences, the principles underlying molecular medicine as related to neurology. Written by internationally recognized experts, ...
The Molecular and Genetic Basis of Neurologic and Psychiatric Disease
Completely updated for its Fourth Edition, this book is the most comprehensive, current review of the molecular and genetic basis of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. More than 120 leading experts provide a fresh, new assessment of recent molecular, genetic, and genomic advances, offer new insights into disease pathogenesis, describe the newest available therapies, and explore promising areas of therapeutic development. This edition features an updated section on psychiatric disease and expanded, updated chapters on human genomics, gene therapy, and ethical issues. Six new chapters cover congenital myasthenic syndromes, hereditary spastic paraplegia, ion channel disorders, the phakomatoses, beta-galactosidase deficiency, and prion diseases. A Neurologic Gene Map describes the chromosome locus of all the genetic diseases and their gene product where known. The fully searchable online text will be available on a companion Website.

Genetic Instabilities and Neurological Diseases
Genetic Instabilities and Neurological Diseases covers DNA repeat instability and neurological disorders, covering molecular mechanisms of repeat expansion, pathogenic mechanisms, clinical phenotype, parental gender effects, genotype-phenotype correlation, and diagnostic applications of the molecular data. This updated edition provides updates of these repeat expansion mutations, including the addition of many new chapters, and old chapters rewritten as extensions of the previous edition. This book is an invaluable reference source for neuroscientists, geneticists, neurologists, molecular biologists, genetic counsellors and students. - Contributions by most of the principal research teams in the area, edited by world-renowned leaders - Lays the background for future investigations on related diseases
