| Abstract
|
:
|
"Epigenetic Biomarkers and Diagnostics comprises 31 chapters contributed by leading active researchers in basic and clinical epigenetics. The book begins with the basis of epigenetic mechanisms and descriptions of epigenetic biomarkers that can be used in clinical diagnostics and prognostics. It goes on to discuss classical methods and next generation sequencing-based technologies to discover and analyze epigenetic biomarkers. The book concludes with an account of DNA methylation, post-translational modifications and noncoding RNAs as the most promising biomarkers for cancer (such as breast, lung, and colon), metabolic disorders (such as diabetes and obesity), autoimmune diseases, infertility, allergy, infectious diseases, and neurological disorders."--Page 4 of cover
