Moyamoya Disease Explored through RNF213. Genetics, Molecular Pathology, and Clinical Sciences (Current Topics in Environmental Health And…)

Description

• Presents the latest findings on biological, epidemiological and clinical investigations of RNF213
• Provides information on the epidemiology and genetic epidemiology of moyamoya disease
• Offers a valuable resource for both beginning and experienced researchers, as well as pediatricians, neurologists, and neurosurgeons

This book presents the latest findings on biological, epidemiological, and clinical investigations of RNF213, which is thought to be involved in many biological processes and plays a key role in cerebro- and cardiovascular disease . By discussing the epidemiology and genetic epidemiology of the disease with a particular focus on the molecular function of RNF213, research using animal models, diagnosis, therapy and clinical management around the world, this work makes a valuable contribution to the study of thedisease.Moyamoya Disease Explored Through RNF213 is an indispensable resource for both beginning and experienced researchers, pediatricians, neurologists, and neurosurgeons who are seeking comprehensive information on adult and childhood stroke.
