Описание: The Epigenetics of Autoimmunity covers a topic directly related to translational epigenetics. Via epigenetic mechanisms, a number of internal and external environmental risk factors, including smoking, nutrition, viral infection and the exposure to chemicals, could exert their influence on the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. Such factors could impact the epigenetic mechanisms, which, in turn, build relationship with the regulation of gene expression, and eventually triggering immunologic events that result in instability of immune system. Since epigenetic aberrations are known to play a key role in a long list of human diseases, the translational significance of autoimmunity epigenetics is very high. . To bridge the gap between environmental and genetic factors, over the past few years, great progress has been made in identifying detailed epigenetic mechanisms for autoimmune diseases. Furthermore, with rapid advances in technological development, high-throughput screening approaches and other novel technologies support the systematic investigations and facilitate the epigenetic identification. This book covers autoimmunity epigenetics from a disease-oriented perspective and several chapters are presented that provide advances in wide-spread disorders or diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), multiple sclerosis (MS), type 1 diabetes (T1DM), systemic sclerosis (SSc), primary Sj?gren's syndrome (pSS) and autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs). . These emerging epigenetic studies provide new insights into autoimmune diseases, raising great expectations among researchers and clinicians. This seminal book on this topic comprehensively covers the most recent advances in this exciting and rapidly developing new science. They might reveal not only new clinical biomarkers for diagnosis and disease progression, but also novel targets for potential epigenetic therapeutic treatment.

Описание: Epigenetics is emerging as an important factor in risk of diseases of global importance including obesity, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Unlike gene polymorphisms which have been the focus of understanding the role of inherited disease susceptibility for some time, epigenetic can be modified by environmental factors, in particular nutrition. Thus research into the role of epigenetics in disease has substantial potential for explaining the impact of the environmental factors such as diet on disease risk. Since epigenetic processes can be modified by nutrition, it may be possible to modify inappropriate epigenetic marks by nutritional interventions to reduce disease risk. This book will explore current understanding of the interaction between nutrition, epigenetics and disease risk, will place this knowledge in the context of global health and discuss the ethical implications of this research.

Описание: This multivolume reference work addresses the fact that the well being of humankind is predicated not only on individuals receiving adequate nutrition but also on their genetic makeup. The work includes more than 100 chapters organized in the following major sections: Introduction and Overview; Epigenetics of Organs and Diseases in Relation to Diet and Nutrition; Detailed Processes in Epigenetics of Diet and Nutrition; Modulating Epigenetics with Diet and Nutrition; and Practical Techniques. While it is well known that genes may encode proteins responsible for structural and dynamic components, there is an increasing body of evidence to suggest that nutrition itself may alter the way in which genes are expressed via the process of epigenetics. This is where chemically imposed alteration in the DNA sequence occurs or where the functional expression of DNA is modulated. This may include changes in DNA methylation, non-coding RNA, chromatin, histone acetylation or methylation, and genomic imprinting. Knowledge regarding the number of dietary components that impact on epigenetic processes is increasing almost daily. Marshalling all the information on the complex relationships between diet, nutrition, and epigenetic processes is somewhat difficult due to the wide myriad of material. It is for this reason that the present work has been compiled.

Описание: "
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 disorders and diseases. This book provides stand-alone coverage of all human systems relevant to epigenetic maladies and all major aspects of medical epigenetics. It is useful not only to physicians, nurses, medical students, and many others directly involved with healthcare, but also investigators in life sciences, biotech companies, graduate students, and all others who are interested in more applied aspects of epigenetics.
The expansion of the field of epigenetics has brought a wealth of information with respect to variations in phenotypes that are heritable. In addition, many advances have emerged that have shown epigenetic aberrations as central to a number of diseases and disorders that were previously thought to be manifested primarily through genetic factors. Along with the remarkable studies that have been made in our understanding of epigenetic-based diseases and disorders has come new information that allows treatments that target these many epigenetic aberrations. "Medical Epigenetics" brings all of this knowledge together to comprehensively review the state of medical epigenetics in one defining volume.
The basic design of "Medical Epigenetics" is to lead the reader from the fundamental mechanisms of epigenetics as they apply to humans through approaches for treating epigenetic-based diseases. This book begins with the basic tenets of epigenetics in human systems and progresses through general medical aspects of epigenetics, epigenetics or system disorders, multi-system medical epigenetics, pharmacology of epigenetics, and therapeutic epigenetics. "Medical Epigenetics" closes with a chapter on future prospects in medical epigenetics. This book is by far the most complete book in the area of applied epigenetics. Focuses on practical and applied aspects of medical epigeneticsIncludes peer-reviewed chapters with up-to-date coverage of emerging topics in medical epigenetics by leading expertsAppeals to those interested in fundamental epigenetics and inheritance, as well as those with more clinical interests including practicing physicians and other health care professionalsCovers the basic tenets of epigenetics in human systems and progresses through general medical aspects of epigenetics, epigenetics or system disorders, multi-system medical epigenetics, pharmacology of epigenetics, and therapeutic epigenetics

Описание: This book focuses on the three most important aspects of ageing research: nutrition, physical exercise and epigenetics. The contributors discuss ways that age-related epigenetic imprints such as DNA methylation and histone acetylation are modified by these two interventions. The emphasis on epigenetics helps to illuminate the underlying mechanisms of anti-ageing interventions, as ageing and disease are predominately epigenetic phenomena. Among the highlights are chapter-length discussion of such topics as: how anti-inflammatory action of calorie restriction underlies the retardation of ageing and age-related diseases (Chapter 3); epigenetic modification of gene expression by exercise (Chapter 5); the role of functional foods and their bioactive components in bone health (Chapter 8); and an account of the first decade of a study of calorie restriction in nonhuman primates, conducted by the National Institute on Ageing.
