Long Non-coding RNAs in Human Disease
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-79551-5 (ISBN)
Thisvolume focuses on the roles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in contextsranging from human cancers to cardiovascular disease and ageing. The role oflncRNAs in X-inactivation and those lncRNAs derived from pseudogenes, pastretroelements integrated within the human genome, as well as the role thesepseudogene-derived lncRNAs play in cancer development are discussed in detail. Further,the book examines the function of lncRNAs in diseases such as diabetes, in smoothmuscle formation, and in the modulation of nuclear receptors, as well as inconnection with perspectiveson the development ofpersonalized therapeutics. It offers an appealing and insightful resource forscientists and clinicians alike.
Kevin Morris is an Associate Professor at the Department of Molecular and Experimental Medicine, The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, CA, USA. The responsible series editor is Peter K. Vogt, The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, CA, USA.
