Modern studies, including the protein-misfolding cyclic amplification (PMCA), have greatly advanced our understanding of the pathogenesis of prion diseases and facilitated the identification of new prion diseases in animals and humans. In the second edition of Prions and Diseases, more than 60 leading researchers and clinicians worldwide provide an up-to-date discussion of these unique infectious pathogens and their associated diseases. The book provides up-to-date knowledge about the etiology, pathogenesis, classification, histopathological, and clinical aspects of the full range of animal and human prion diseases. As a result, the book contains by far the most authoritative views about the past, present, and future of prions and prion diseases. The new second edition covers such important emerging topics such as inherited human prion disease, stem-cell models in prion research, human prion disease surveillance, and gene therapy strategies.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: CHItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 155mmContributor: Wen-Quan Zou (Edited by), Pierluigi Gambetti (Edited by)Genre: Science Nature & MathTopic: MedicineAuthor: Wen-Quan ZouRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
