    RNA and DNA EditingMethods and Protocols

    Te recent expansion in diversity o RNA and

    DNA editing types has stimulated the developmento many unique genetic, molecular, biochemical,

    and computational approaches to biological

    issues. In RNA and DNA Editing: Methods and

    Protocols, leading experts in the eld introduce

    methods developed over the last ew years to study

    editing substrates, mechanisms o specicity, and

    unctions o RNA and DNA editing enzymes and

    complexes. Sections o the book are dedicated to

    state-o-the art techniques which enable investiga-

    tion o uracil insertion/deletion RNA editing in

    mitochondrion o rypanosoma brucei, adenosine

    to inosine RNA editing, cytidine to uracil RNA and

    DNA editing, as well as tRNA editing and RNA

    modications.

    Molecular Basis o Health andDisease

    Te book describes how the balance between

    pro- and anti-inammatory molecules is related

    to health and disease. It is suggested that manydiseases are initiated and their progress is inu-

    enced by inammatory molecules and a decrease

    in the production and/or action o anti-inam-

    matory molecules and this imbalance between

    pro- and anti-inammatory molecules seems to

    have been initiated in the perinatal period. Tis

    implies that strategies to prevent and manage

    various adult diseases should start in the perinatal

    period. An alteration in the metaolism o essential

    atty acids and their anti-inammatory molecules

    such as lipoxins, resolvins, protecitns, maresins

    and nitrolipids seems to play a major role in the

    pathobiology o several adult diseases. Based on

    these concepts, novel therapeutic approaches in

    the management o insulin resistance, obesity,type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome,

    cancer, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and other auto-

    immune diseases are presented.

    Features

    7 Perinatal origins o adult diseases 7 Adult

    diseases as low-grade systemic inammatory

    conditions 7 Inammation as the basis o

    obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome

    and cancerImbalance in the pro- and anti-inam-

    matory molecules as the basis o adult diseases

    7 Altered metabolism o essential atty acids and

    eicosanoids in the pathobiology o adult diseases

    Breast Cancer, aHeterogeneous Disease EntityThe Very Early Stages

    Te volume raises attention to the need o a

    completely new approach to breast cancer basedon the knowledge collected on early breast cancer

    in the past two decades. Te chapters are contrib-

    uted by experts o all the elds participating in

    the clinical research and care o breast cancer. Te

    practical importance o such a book is underlined

    by the increasing number o breast cancer cases,

    and also the increasing proportion o early stage-

    cases. Te ultimate goal o the book is to point to

    the heterogeneous nature o the disease which is

    more striking and has more importance in care at

    the very early stages than at the more advanced

    stages. Te book recommends the utilization o

    all the inormation provided by multimodality

    imaging and special pathological methods, a new

    classication system and therapeutic guidelinessince early breast cancers should not be treated

    based on experience obtained with palpable

    Histamine in Inammation

    Te year 2010 marks the centennial or the iden-

    tication o histamine and the rst glimpse o its

    many physiological unctions. From these initialndings a rich tapestry o research has uncovered

    roles or histamine in almost every physiological

    process with new ndings emerging every year.

    Tese diverse roles o histamine have made or

    ertile ground or the discovery o novel therapeu-

    tics, and these drugs have been so successul that

    the term antihistamine has entered the common

    lexicon. Tis book is an attempt to give a snapshot

    in time as to the current understanding o the role

    o histamine in just one important therapeutic

    areainammation.

    Features7 Provides an overview o the pharmacology o

    the our histamine receptors and describes howhistamine is synthesized and the insights derived

    rom mice where this synthesis is disrupted

    7 Discusses the important role o histamine

    in neurotransmission and or the treatment o

    various neurological disorders 7 Explains the

    uture o antihistamine research and the poten-

    tial or novel antihistamines targeting the newest

    members o the histamine receptor amilythe H3

    and H4 receptors
