Exosomes
A Clinical Compendium
About this book
Exosomes: A Clinical Compendium is a comprehensive and authoritative account of exosomesin the context of biomarkers, diagnostics, and therapeutics across a wide spectrum of medicaldisciplines, as well as their role in cell-cell communication. It is intended to serve as a referencesource for clinicians, physicians, and research scientists who wish to gain insight into the mostrecent advances in this rapidly growing field.The exosome revolution may well be the greatest advance in physiology and medicine sinceantibiotics. The discovery of their epigenetic role in intercellular signaling in virtually all tissues is amajor breakthrough in our understanding of how cells function.- Provides readers with a broad and timely overview of exosomes in health and disease, closingwith a thought-provoking chapter on transgenerational inheritance, Darwin and Lamarck.- Summarizes the most recent laboratory and clinical findings on exosomes across numerousmedical disciplines, thereby offering readers a broad-ranging and solid foundation for prospectiveinvestigative efforts- Twenty-one chapters authored by a global team of peer-acknowledged experts, each representinga key medical disciplineProvides readers with a broad and timely overview of exosomes in health and disease, closing
