Essential Concepts in Molecular Pathology

Editat de William B. Coleman, Gregory J. Tsongalis
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 noi 2019

Sub coordonarea editorilor William B. Coleman și Gregory J. Tsongalis, personalități marcante în cercetarea biomedicală, Essential Concepts in Molecular Pathology se impune ca o resursă academică riguroasă, menită să pună în dialog patologia tradițională cu descoperirile geneticii moderne. Putem afirma că lucrarea nu este doar o simplă sinteză, ci o recalibrare a materialului vast din ediția mamă, Molecular Pathology, fiind adaptată special pentru studenții la medicină și rezidenții care au nevoie de o bază conceptuală solidă fără a parcurge un tratat enciclopedic. Cartea extinde cadrul propus de Principles of Molecular Pathology cu date noi despre genomul și epigenomul uman, oferind o perspectivă de biologie integrativă a sistemelor.

Notăm cu interes modul în care autorii poziționează această lucrare în raport cu proiectele lor anterioare, precum The Molecular Basis of Human Cancer sau Molecular Diagnostics. Dacă acelea se concentrau pe nișe specifice (oncologie sau tehnici de laborator), volumul de față servește drept punte de legătură, explicând cum mecanismele moleculare dictează manifestările clinice vizibile în histopatologie. Structura este bicefală: prima parte analizează procesele fundamentale precum inflamația și neoplazia, în timp ce a doua parte plonjează în arhitectura moleculară a transcriptomului și a variațiilor genetice.

Experiența de parcurgere este facilitată de o organizare extrem de logică, unde fiecare capitol se încheie cu puncte de sumar ce fixează conceptele-cheie. Stilul este unul tehnic, precis, eliminând redundanțele pentru a lăsa loc explicațiilor despre medicina personalizată și diagnosticarea moleculară. Față de Pathology: A Modern Case Study, care mizează pe studii de caz, acest manual preferă o abordare sistematică a principiilor, fiind ideal pentru curriculumul universitar care vizează înțelegerea cauzalității bolilor la nivel celular.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această carte studenților și rezidenților care doresc să înțeleagă biologia din spatele fiziopatologiei. Este un text esențializat care face legătura între patologia clasică și medicina de precizie. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere clară a modului în care genomica și epigenomica transformă diagnosticul modern, beneficiind de un format structurat pentru învățare rapidă și eficientă, fără a sacrifica rigoarea științifică a editurii ELSEVIER SCIENCE.


Descriere scurtă

Essential Concepts in Molecular Pathology, Second Edition, offers an introduction to molecular genetics and the "molecular" aspects of human disease. The book illustrates how pathologists harness their understanding of these entities to develop new diagnostics and treatments for various human diseases. This new edition offers pathology, genetics residents, and molecular pathology fellows an advanced understanding of the molecular mechanisms of disease that goes beyond what they learned in medical and graduate school.
By bridging molecular concepts of pathogenesis to the clinical expression of disease in cell, tissue and organ, this fully updated, introductory reference provides the background necessary for an understanding of today’s advances in pathology and medicine.


  • Explains the practice of "molecular medicine" and the translational aspects of molecular pathology, including molecular diagnostics, molecular assessment and personalized medicine
  • Orients non-pathologists on what pathologists look for and how they interpret their observational findings based on histopathology
  • Provides the reader with what is missing from most targeted introductions to pathology—the cell biology behind pathophysiology

Recenzii

"This is a well-illustrated, easy-to-read book perfectly geared toward aspiring and practicing pathologists. With the growing use of high throughput technologies by medical laboratories, clinicians increasingly rely on genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic data to classify disease, predict patient outcomes, select therapy, and monitor response to treatment. This book illustrates how scientific discoveries have improved our understanding of disease and catalyzed the era of molecular-guided precision medicine. By highlighting landmark collaborative efforts like the Human Genome Project and new technologies on the horizon, it offers both historical and future-oriented perspectives on the rapidly growing field of genomic medicine. Overall, I would highly recommend this comprehensive textbook to those interested in molecular pathology." --Doody Reviews
Praise for the first edition:
"The book is compact, easy to follow, filled with useful tables and figures and deserves reading by students and professionals interested in the molecular basis of disease." --Howard Reisner PhD, Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA
"Finally, a book that captures the real world environment of molecular diagnosis and pathology…is available in Essential Concepts in Molecular Pathology! --Rodney E. Rohde, MS, SV, SM, MP (ASCP), Associate Professor, Texas State University-San Marcos, Clinical Laboratory Science, San Marcos, TX, USA
