Description for Neuroepigenomics in Aging and Disease
Hardback. Editor(s): Delgado-Morales, Raul. Series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology. Num Pages: 547 pages, 16 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: MFN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155. .
Epigenetic mechanisms (DNA modifications, histone alterations and non-coding RNAs) are crucial for transcriptional regulation and alterations of the “physiological epigenome” are increasingly associated with human diseases. During the last decade the emerging field of neuroepigenomics have started to impact tremendously in areas such learning and memory, addiction or neurodegeneration. This expert volume covers the role of epigenetic molecular mechanism in regulation of central nervous system’s function, one of the most exciting areas of contemporary molecular neuroscience. The book describes the current knowledge on the epigenetic basis of human disease covering the complete lifespan: from neurodevelopment/childhood (Rett Syndrome, Rubinstein-Taybi, autism), adolescence (eating disorders, drug addiction, ...
