Rapid advances in molecular medicine have led to pronounced new
developments in experimental and clinical cardiology. In the embrace
of modern molecular biology and bridging the gap between the clinical
and the genomic, cardiovascular medicine has seen major strides in the
understanding of the molecular mechanisms that drive disease
progression. The ability to rapidly identify candidate human genes
for cardiovascular diseases lends itself to the development of diverse
strategies for disease treatment and management. The wide variety of
gene expressions proffers excellent targets for novel therapeutics.
Gene therapy is steadily increasing in viability and represents a
fascinating arena of research and clinical focus. This book is based
on two international Mendel symposia on “Genes and the Heart,”
joint meetings of the Japanese and European sections of the
International Academy of Cardiovascular Sciences. Highlighting
selected symposia contributions, this book explores the role of
molecular biology and genetics in the basic knowledge, genesis, and
clinical interventions of cardiovascular diseases.
