Genetics and Epigenetics of Genitourinary Diseases aims to provide a comprehensive collection of data on genetics and epigenetics in almost all genitourinary diseases for researchers, clinicians, and graduate students.
This book discusses several genetic and epigenetic changes like DNA methylation, mutations, single nucleotide polymorphisms, DNA rearrangements, chromosomal remodeling, microsatellite instability, and chromosomal instability (CIN) in genitourinary cancers.
This book is split into 18 chapters, beginning with the importance of genetics and epigenetics in genitourinary diseases. It then goes on to cover the genetics and epigenetics of various diseases and tumors. Certain chapters present novel techniques of next-generation sequencing (NGS). Furthermore, RNA-Seq is discussed as a sequencing technique that uses NGS to reveal the presence and quantity of RNA in a biological sample.
This book is a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and students in genetics and epigenetics who want to broaden their understanding of the field.
- Provides a unique collection of genetics and epigenetics in genitourinary
- Covers the subject of genetic and epigenetics in urological malignancies, infertility, and urolithiasis
- Gives novel insights into genitourinary diseases even the rare ones and sheds light on genitourinary diseases from DNA methylation to CIN
