In this book, epigenetic mechanisms of regulation and dysregulation in health and disease are explored in great depth. Detailed chapters on epigenetic processes including DNA methylation and chromatin post-translational modifications including potential interventions with DNA methyltransferase inhibitors and histone deacetylase inhibitors are explored in initial chapters. These provide a detailed overview and important background to the entire field. The book is then focussed on epigenetic mechanisms involved in various diseases including anti-inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. Important accounts relating to the effects of epigenetics in metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease and asthma are the focus of subsequent chapters. The role of epigenetic dysregulation in malignancy is a current topic of interest and represents an intense field of research. A large component of this book is dedicated to the analysis of aberrant epigenetic processes in carcinogenesis and cancer progression. Further, chapters are focused on emerging cancer prevention using nutritional components and anti-cancer therapies particularly with histone deacetylase inhibitors, which have already been approved for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The emerging role of nanoparticle preparations, especially in the context of delivering potential epigenetic therapies to target cells in various diseases, is also explored in this book. Overall, this book encompasses a wide range of topics related to epigenetic mechanisms in health and disease and would appeal to anyone with an interest in epigenetics, chromatin biology and emerging epigenetic interventions and therapies. 606 $aHuman physiology 606 $aClinical biochemistry 606 $aMolecular biology 606 $aProteins 606 $aGene expression 606 $aRespiratory organs?Diseases 606 $aHuman Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B13004 606 $aMedical Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H35005 606 $aMolecular Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B1700X 606 $aProtein Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14040 606 $aGene Expression$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B12010 606 $aPneumology/Respiratory System$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33134 615 0$aHuman physiology. 615 0$aClinical biochemistry. 615 0$aMolecular biology. 615 0$aProteins. 615 0$aGene expression. 615 0$aRespiratory organs?Diseases. 615 14$aHuman Physiology. 615 24$aMedical Biochemistry. 615 24$aMolecular Medicine. 615 24$aProtein Science. 615 24$aGene Expression. 615 24$aPneumology/Respiratory System. 676 $a572.6 676 $a610 676 $a611.01816 676 $a612 702 $aMaulik$b Nilanjana$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKaragiannis$b Tom$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298315603321 996 $aMolecular mechanisms and physiology of disease$92498384 997 $aUNINA
