This volume contains several reviews in the field as well as the step-by-step use of targeted
and global approaches within the areas of genomics epigenetics proteomics transcriptomics
and metabolomics which aim to address this dilemma and to help pinpoint new treatment
strategies. Chapters detail the generation of several models and methods for assessing health
and provide researchers potential approaches for reversing or minimizing effects of disease. In
addition important information on disease mechanisms is provided as each method is described
in the context of a specific disease or therapeutic area. Written in the highly successful
Methods in Molecular Biology series format the chapters include introductions to their
respective topics lists of the necessary materials and reagents step-by-step readily
reproducible laboratory protocols and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known
pitfalls.Authoritative and practical Investigations of Early Nutrition Effects on Long-Term
Health: Methods and Applications aim is to provide insights into the latest ideas and
technologies .enabling progress in this field.
