    Beyond Our Genes : Pathophysiology of Gene and Environment Interaction and Epigenetic Inheritance (2020)
    Cham :Springer International Publishing :
    Details
    Keywords: Medical genetics. ; Genetics. ; Biotechnology. ; Medical Genetics. ; Genetics and Genomics. ; Chemical Bioengineering.
    Description / Table of Contents: Section I: The physiology of the gene/environment interaction -- Nutrition -- Physical Exercise -- Circadian Rhythm -- Toxicants: Smoke, Alcohol and Heavy Metals -- Hormones -- Section II: Gene-Environment Interaction and Disease Susceptibility -- Obesity and Metabolic Syndromes -- Cancer -- Neurological and Psychiatric Disorders -- Asthma and allergic disorders -- Lamarck Versus Darwin: The Concept of Aquired Epigenetic Inheritance -- Section III: Genome/Epigenome -- Genetic Contribution to Epigenetic Inheritance -- The Controversial Role of DNA Methylation in Epigenetic Inheritance -- Small Non-Coding RNAs -- Chromatin Modifiers -- Soma-to-Germline Information Transfer: Questions and Promises.
    Abstract: The genotype/phenotype dichotomy is being slowly replaced by a more complex relationship whereby the majority of phenotypes arise from interactions between one’s genotype and the environment in which one lives. Interestingly, it seems that not only our lives, but also our ancestors’ lives, determine how we look. This newly recognized form of inheritance is known as (epi)genetic, as it involves an additional layer of information on top of the one encoded by the genes. Its discovery has constituted one of the biggest paradigm shifts in biology in recent years. Understanding epigenetic factors may help explain the pathogenesis of several complex human diseases (such as diabetes, obesity and cancer) and provide alternative paths for disease prevention, management and therapy. This book introduces the reader to the importance of the environment for our own health and the health of our descendants, sheds light on the current knowledge on epigenetic inheritance and opens a window to future developments in the field.

    Details
    Keywords: Microbial genetics. ; Evolution (Biology). ; Population genetics. ; Microbial ecology. ; Medical genetics. ; Genetics. ; Microbial Genetics. ; Evolutionary Biology. ; Population Genetics. ; Microbial Ecology. ; Medical Genetics. ; Genetics and Genomics.
    Description / Table of Contents: Part 1: Genomic diversity and the pan-genome concept -- Chapter 1: The pan-genome: a data-drivendiscovery in biology -- Chapter 2: The prokaryotic species concept and challenges -- Chapter 3: Bacterial guide on how to design a diversified gene portfolio -- Chapter 4: A review of pan-genome tools and recent studies -- Part 2: Evolutionary biology of pan-genomes -- Chapter 5: Structure and dynamics of bacterial populations: pan-genome ecology -- Chapter 6: Bacterial microevolution and the pan-genome -- Chapter 7: Pan-genomes and selection: the public goods hypothesis -- Chapter 8: A pan-genomic perspective on the emergence, maintenance and predictability of antibiotic resistance -- Part 3: Pan-genomics: an open, evolving discipline -- Chapter 9: Metapangenome: at the crossroad of pangenomics and metagenomics -- Chapter 10: Pan-genome flux balance analysis towards pan-phenomes -- Chapter 11: Bacterial epigenomics: epigenetics in the age of population genomics -- Chapter 12: Eukaryotic pan-genomes -- Chapter 13: Computational strategies for eukaryotic pan-genome analyses.
    Abstract: This open access book offers the first comprehensive account of the pan-genome concept and its manifold implications. The realization that the genetic repertoire of a biological species always encompasses more than the genome of each individual is one of the earliest examples of big data in biology that opened biology to the unbounded. The study of genetic variation observed within a species challenges existing views and has profound consequences for our understanding of the fundamental mechanisms underpinning bacterial biology and evolution. The underlying rationale extends well beyond the initial prokaryotic focus to all kingdoms of life and evolves into similar concepts for metagenomes, phenomes and epigenomes. The book’s respective chapters address a range of topics, from the serendipitous emergence of the pan-genome concept and its impacts on the fields of microbiology, vaccinology and antimicrobial resistance, to the study of microbial communities, bioinformatic applications and mathematical models that tie in with complex systems and economic theory. Given its scope, the book will appeal to a broad readership interested in population dynamics, evolutionary biology and genomics.

    The Secret Lives of Transcription Factors : In Heterochromatin Regulation (2023)
    Cham :Springer International Publishing :
    Details
    Keywords: Cytology. ; Physiology. ; Medical genetics. ; Cell Biology. ; Physiology. ; Medical Genetics.
    Description / Table of Contents: Chapter 1 Introduction -- Chapter 2 Unconventional functions of transcription factors -- GAGA transcription factor -- Heterochromatin protein 1 -- Retinoblastoma protein -- STAT -- ATF-2 -- NF-kB -- Chapter 3 STAT and HP1, in their unconventional roles, promote longevity and protect against DNA damage and cancer -- STAT and HP1 promote longevity -- STAT and HP1 protect against DNA damage -- Increased levels of STAT and HP1 hinder carcinogenesis in a mouse xenograft model -- Chapter 4 The possible biological significance of transcription factors’ unconventional functions -- The epigenome -- Processes in the cell nucleus -- Future Work.
    Abstract: This SpringerBrief explores unconventional functions of eight different transcription factors and concludes with a discussion of their biological significance and impact, including effects on processes within the cell nucleaus during development and in adult organisms. Chapter One details unconventional functions of the transcription factors GAGA, HP1, Rb, STAT, ATF-2 and NF-kB. Surprisingly, all of these transcription factors can be found in association with heterochromatin as well as euchromatin, and in some cases unconventional functions have been demonstrated for these heterochromatin-associated factors. Chapter Two focuses on the unconventional functions of STAT and HP1 and discusses their roles in the promotion of longevity, and in protection from cancer and DNA damage. Chapter Three explores the biological significance of the findings presented in the first two chapters and considers how global changes in the epigenome brought about by factors such as STAT and HP1 might affect processes within the cell nucleus during development and in adult organisms. This succinct yet thorough SpringerBrief is essential for researchers studying epigenetics, and to instructors of the subject. It should also appeal to people interested in the control of gene transcription and other processes in the cell nucleus, and to those interested in development.

    Abstract: This book focuses on the fundamentals and applications of messenger RNA (mRNA)-based therapeutics and discusses the strengths and key challenges of this emerging class of drugs. In the past 30 years, extensive research and technological development in many areas have contributed to the emergence of in vitro transcribed mRNA as a therapeutic that has now reached clinical testing. Formulations that protect the mRNA from nucleases and accelerate its cellular uptake, combined with improvements to the mRNA molecules themselves, have been critical advancements for mRNAs to become viable therapeutics. Though once regarded as a serious impediment, the transient nature of mRNA technology is now considered a major advantage in making mRNA therapies safe and, ultimately, a potential game changer in the field of medicine. This new book in the RNA Technologies series provides a state-of-the-art overview on the emerging field of mRNA therapeutics covering essential strategies for formulation, delivery, and application. It also reviews the promising role in cancer immunotherapy, respiratory diseases, and chronic HBV infection and discusses RNA vaccines in light of the current COVID-19 pandemic. mRNA-based approaches have great potential to revolutionize molecular biology, cell biology, biomedical research, and medicine. Thus, this handbook is an essential resource for researchers in academia and industry contributing to the development of this new area of therapeutics.

    Abstract: The world population is rapidly aging—it is estimated that by 1950, around 17% of the population will be elderly. In this context, aging involves several physiological, psychological and highly complex social processes that vary from one person to another. For a long time, medical care for older adults has focused on treating chronic, age-related diseases and their associated consequences. Recently, biomedical research brings a novel point of view to develop more effective interventions by targeting the aging process itself rather than separate conditions. There is a growing number of reports indicating that aging is driven by several interconnected mechanisms and biological components referred to as the molecular pillars of aging. Interfering with these mechanisms could help to treat, prevent, and understand the development of age-related diseases and associated syndromes. This book provides a clinical perspective and general update on biomedical and genetic research in aging, moving from an update in the molecular pillars of aging to a perspective of the most recent pharmacological, clinical, and diagnostic applications using genomic approaches and techniques. While this book focuses on the specifics of genetics and genomics, it also adopts a clinical perspective of geroscience, which seeks to understand the genetic, molecular and cellular mechanisms that make aging an important risk factor and, sometimes, a determining factor in the diseases and common chronic conditions of older people. Additionally, Clinical Genetics and Genomics of Aging is a significant contribution to support aging research, as it shows that collaboration across disciplines is relevant to progress in the field. As more and more people benefit from increased longevity, clinician and researchers will be empowered by this knowledge to contribute to the progress of aging research.

    Abstract: Signal transduction comprises the intracellular biochemical signals which induce the appropriate cell response to an external stimulus. The players in signal transduction are diverse, from small molecules as first messengers, to proteins, receptors, transcription factors, among many others. The different signaling pathways and the crosstalk between them originates the unique signaling profile of every cell type in the human body. The cell signaling specificity depends on several aspects including protein composition, subcellular localization and complexes and gene promoters. This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the specific signaling pathways on a variety of human tissues. This information can be of great value for health science researchers, professionals and students to understand key pathways for tissue-specific functions in the plethora of signals, signals receptors, transducers and effectors.
