Unlocking the Secrets of Epigenetics in Organ Specific Disorders

Edited by Chandra S. Boosani and Ritobrata Goswami, “Epigenetics in Organ Specific Disorders” is a groundbreaking volume in the Translational Epigenetics series, offering a comprehensive understanding of epigenetic gene regulation in various organ types and their corresponding disorders.

Following a concise introduction, the book delves into an in-depth comparison of epigenetic regulations across normal and disease conditions in different organ tissues, highlighting both the similarities and differences. The role of epigenetic mechanisms in crucial cellular processes, including stem cells, cell-matrix interactions, cell proliferation, migration, apoptosis, necrosis, pyknosis, tumor suppression, and immune responses, is extensively examined across various organ types.

The volume also explores organ-specific epigenetic mechanisms and biomarkers, which can be leveraged to develop targeted therapies for early disease diagnosis and treatment. This knowledge enables the creation of precision medicines that can selectively target the organ of interest, revolutionizing the field of epigenetics and disease treatment.
