From pathology to treatment, Micro RNAs in Diseases and Disorders highlights the role of micro RNAs (mi RNAs) in the development and progression of a variety of diseases, including cancer, neurological disease, endocrine disease and autoimmune disease, and underscores the utilization of mi RNA targets in the treatment of these conditions. Providing a comprehensive account, this book also includes the identification of mi RNAs as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for disease, as well as evaluates translational value from clinical trials using synthesized and functionalized mi RNA mimics and inhibitors.
With a global contribution list and chapters from leading experts across the field, Micro RNAs in Diseases and Disorders is an invaluable reference to mi RNA 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 mi RNA targeting therapeutics, as well as to advanced students in chemical biology and drug discovery.
