Beskrivning

This book covers the entire spectrum of cardiovascular genomics. It is organized into three parts: Genes and Polymorphisms in Cardiovascular Disease; Gene Transfer for Cardiovascular Disease; and Regenerative Tissues for the Diseased Cardiovascular System. Leading clinical researchers provide an updated account of the most recent molecular approaches utilized to understand the cardiovascular system in both health and disease. It provides and excellent resource for students, researchers and clinicians on the potential of developing novel strategies for the control of cardiovascular disease.

From the reviews: "'Cardiovascular Genomics' provides an up to date account of genes that are important in cardiovascular health and disease. ... For those who require a concise, well-researched and written collection on some of the ways that cardiovascular diseases are being tackled from the laboratory to the patient bedside, this book will provide an excellent choice in this fast paced area of research." (S. Loughna, Human Genetics, Vol. 121, 2007)
