Epigenetics research plays an important part in studies of both normal development and disease. Contributors of these 16 articles give students and nonspecialists biological mechanisms of the epigenet
Extraordinary potential lies in the study of how genes interact with their environment to produce a phenotype, and it has just begun to be tapped. This structured reference intended for a wide audienc
The regulation of gene expression in many biological processes involves epigenetic mechanisms. In this new volume, 36 chapters written by experts in the field discuss epigenetic effects from many per
Epigenetics fine-tunes the life processes dictated by DNA sequences, but also kick-starts pathophysiological processes including diabetes, AIDS and cancer. This volume tracks the latest research on ep
Illuminating the processes and patterns that link genotype to phenotype, epigenetics seeks to explain features, characters, and developmental mechanisms that can only be understood in terms of interac
The concept of epigenetics has been known about since the 1940s, but it is only in the last 10 years that research has shown just how wide ranging its effects are. It is now a very widely-used term, b
The field of epigenetics has played a major role at the forefront not only of molecular biology, but also of medical genetics and clinical medicine.? Few disciplines have experienced growth comparable
Personalized Epigenetics discusses the core translatability of epigenetics to health management of individuals who have unique variations in their epigenetic signatures that can guide both disorder an
This book examines the toxicological and health implications of environmental epigenetics and provides knowledge through an interdisciplinary approach. Included in this volume are chapters outlining v
Insect Epigenetics, Volume 53 provides readers with the latest interdisciplinary reviews on the topic. Updated chapters in this new release include Epigenetics in insects: Mechanisms, ecological outco
Medical Epigenetics is an inclusive volume on the medical aspects of epigenetics with a focus on human systems, epigenetic disease that affect these systems, and modes of treating epigenetic-based dis
