miRNA in Human Disease: From Biomarkers to Therapeutics explores the critical role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the development and progression of various diseases, emphasizing their significance as biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Sections provide a comprehensive overview of the biogenesis, function, and regulation of miRNAs, offering insights into how these small noncoding RNA molecules influence gene expression and contribute to disease development and progression. The book covers traditional and advanced methods for miRNA extraction, the role of miRNAs in infectious diseases, cancer, neurological disorders, cardiovascular disease, hemoglobinopathies, pregnancy complications, and metabolic disorders.Sections also discuss the latest research on miRNA-based therapies, including the design and delivery of miRNA mimics and inhibitors and their potential applications in personalized medicine. With a strong focus on practical implementation, the book includes detailed case studies and real-world examples that demonstrate the clinical relevance of miRNA research. It addresses the challenges and future directions in the field, providing a roadmap for researchers, clinicians, and industry professionals to harness the potential of miRNAs for disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.Provides a comprehensive understanding of the role of miRNAs in various diseases, including their biogenesis, function, and potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targetsExplores the latest research on miRNA-based therapies, offering insights into how these small noncoding RNA molecules can be used to develop new treatments for a wide range of diseasesHighlights practical examples and case studies that demonstrate the real-world applications of miRNA research in disease diagnosis, treatment, and personalized medicine

As the first IAS officer to climb the world''s tallest peak, Ravindra Kumar in this book has presented Mount Everest as a symbol of life''s problems beyond the limit of a physical barrier. Introducing the innovative technique of ''Advanced Positive Visualisation'', the author explains how the various Everests of life can be conquered with this success key. Kumar has tested the impact of this technique personally and has achieved many feats-starting from his selection in the prestigious IIT entrance examination to his selection in the premier Civil Services Examination and becoming an IAS officer after working at sea for many years and, thereafter, climbing the highest peak of the world in his maiden attempt. It is through his life journey and after analysing its impact, the author has presented to the reader the innate power lying dormant in the human mind. Kumar''s claim is based on the fact that our brain catches the image of anything before any other sensory perception like speech, hearing, smell, touch, etc. Although this is a daily phenomenon we don''t notice it. The author has not only documented his observation from day-to-day life but has also explained it scientifically by connecting the dots of old as well as modern scientific researches, including Einstein''s theory of relativity, findings by yogis, experiments on human brain by modern research centres such as Harvard Medical School, Leningrad Military Laboratory, etc. He has explained this technical subject in a simple lucid language to be understood by all. By demonstrating the miraculous effect of this technique in the lives of ordinary people through the example of his life, the author explains to the readers, and in the process motivates them on how, despite life''s vicissitudes, one can achieve one''s dreams.

The book features lectures derived from faculty development program discussions and deliberations, with the aim of providing academic professionals with resources to stay current in the field of biotechnology, particularly in nanotechnology. This material is intended to help educators who teach students and aspire to remain at the forefront of their field. The book is centered on the use of biotechnological tools in agriculture and related sciences, including animal sciences and veterinary medicine, with an emphasis on how these tools can help farmers enhance production efficiency and reduce costs.

This edited book provides an overview of omics technologies and methods for integration across multiple omics layers used in the plant disease diagnosis and developing management strategies. The book concentrates on the prevalence of soil-borne disease management in various important crops with use of different strategies, including host resistance and biological control etc. The special focus is on the resolving practical problems encountered after the resistance development in the pathogens against several chemical pesticides. Further, special attention is given to the emergence of new diseases or the re-emergence of old ones on several crops, and on the results and problems encountered by using microbial inoculants, biofumigation and other non-chemical control methods. This book has 18 contributory chapters from the eminent experts in the field of plant pathology, microbiology and biotechnology working on different aspects of soil-borne diseases of important agricultural crops. This edited volume is of interest and useful to researchers in plant pathology, agriculture sciences, plant genomics ecology, policy makers, also it is a valuable source of reference to the relevant researchers and students globally.
