Genomics of Pattern Recognition Receptors Applications in Oncology and Cardiovascular Diseases By: Anton G. Kutikhin; Arseniy E. Yuzhalin Publisher: Springer Print ISBN: 9783034806879, 3034806876 eText ISBN: 9783034806886, 3034806884 Copyright year: 2013 Format: EPUB Available from $ 149.00 USD SKU 9783034806886 This book offers comprehensive information on the polymorphisms of genes encoding pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). Following a short description of the general role of PRRs in the immune system, the structure and function of Toll-like and NOD-like receptors are examined in detail. The main focus is on the role of inherited variation in PRRs and their correlation to cancer and cardiovascular diseases. A review of all epidemiological investigations is included, and a concept of genomic risk markers for the prevention of various diseases is also discussed. Download now: https://ouo.io/u5XdQU
