Synopses & Reviews
Extensive studies have been conducted on the identification, biogenesis, and processing of microRNA (miRNA) as well as research on the exact mechanism by which miRNAs bring about translational silencing of their targets. In addition, numerous publications point to an important role of miRNAs in development, reprogramming, epigenetics, pathogenesis of cancer, oncogenes and tumor suppressors, biomarkers of various disease onset, and regulation of adipogenesis and obesity; yet many questions still remain.
Synopsis
Fully updated and easy to use, this book helps readers explore diverse ways to understand the mechanisms in which miRNAs facilitate the molecular aspects of not only biomedical research but also a wide range of other research fields.
