Neurogenetics is intended for any physician or scientist who manages patients with inherited diseases of the nervous system. It presents the clinical phenotypes of the most commonly inherited neurologic diseases, and their molecular pathogenesis, followed by a description of the appropriate tests to be used in diagnosis. Two introductory chapters familiarize the non-geneticist with medical genetic terminology and molecular genetic techniques useful in the analysis of genetic diseases and genetic testing. Subsequent chapters examine each major genetic neurologic disease.

"Neurogenetics is a concise volume addressing the genetic and molecular biological aspects of a number of neurological diseases. For the reader who has not already been engulfed by the tidal wave of genetics sweeping medicine, there are several excellent introductory chapters reviewing molecular techniques and tools used to determine genetic information about various human diseases...Neurogenetics represents a nice, concise summary of the current state of the genetic and molecular basis of multiple neurological diseases. It is easy to use and should be of great help to neurologists confronting these diseases on a daily basis."--Archives of Neurology

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Neurogenetics is intended for any physician or scientist who manages patients with inherited diseases of the nervous system. It presents the clinical phenotypes of the most commonly inherited neurologic diseases, and their molecular pathogenesis, followed by a description of the appropriate tests to be used in diagnosis. Two introductory chapters familiarize the nongeneticist with medical genetic terminology and molecular genetic techniques useful in theanalysis of genetic disease and genetic testing. Subsequent chapters examine major neurologic disorders caused by single defects, as well as disease phenotypes such as Alzheimer disease or amyotrophic lateralsclerosis which may be caused by defects in single genes, but may also be seen as sporadic diseases. The genetic components of other common neurologic disorders, such as epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, migraine, and stroke are all covered in detail. The final chapter discusses genetic counseling of symptomatic and pre-symptomatic individuals. Throughout, chapters discuss genotype/phenotype correlations and, where appropriate, animal models for inherited human neurologic diseases. Several chaptersare devoted to recently discovered diseases caused by unstable DNA repeats. Special emphasis is placed on conveying how DNA testing can be applied to the daily practice of geneticists andneurologists. "Neurogenetics" presents the clinical phenotypes of the most commonly inherited neurologic diseases, and their molecular pathogenesis, followed by a description of the appropriate tests to be used in diagnosis. Two introductory chapters explain medical genetic terminology and molecular genetic techniques. This item is printed on demand.
