Personalized Epigenetics discusses the core translatability of epigenetics to health management
of individuals who have unique variations in their epigenetic signatures that can guide both
disorder and disease prevention and therapy. The book details inter-individual variability in
the major epigenetic process in humans consisting of DNA methylation histone modifications
and noncoding RNA and the diagnostic prognostic and therapeutic potential of the field it
also reviews the impact of the environment on epigenetic variations among individuals and the
role of pharmacology and drug development in personalized epigenetics. Most importantly the
text covers personalized epigenetics from a disease-oriented perspective presenting chapters
that provide advances in widespread disorders or diseases including diabetes cancer
autoimmune disorders obesity cardiovascular diseases neurological disorders and pain
management.
