This book presents current advances in the emerging interdisciplinary field of microRNA research of human cancers from a unique perspective of quantitative sciences: bioinformatics, computational and systems biology, and mathematical modeling. This volume contains adaptations and critical reviews of recent state-of-the-art studies, ranging from technological advances in microRNA detection and profiling, clinically oriented microRNA profiling in several human cancers, to a systems biology analysis of global patterns of microRNA regulation of signaling and metabolic pathways. Interactions with transcription factor regulatory networks and mathematical modeling of microRNA regulation are also discussed.

Zielgruppe

Academic, biotech, and pharmaceutical industry biomedical scientists; physicians involved in cancer research; oncologists; computational biologists and bioinformaticians who are involved in basic, translational and clinical research; college educators; and undergraduate, graduate, and medical students.
