Molecular Hematology-4판

Description:

he new and fully-revised volume of hematologic molecular biology for practicing and trainee hematologists
Molecular Hematology is a comprehensive resource for hematologists to increase their understanding of the molecular
basis of various blood diseases, their pathogeneses, and current and emerging molecular research and therapies.
The impact of molecular research on the field of hematology is significant—molecular techniques are continuing to play
a central role in in the diagnosis and treatment of blood diseases. Molecular characterization of genes and proteins
has increased our comprehension of the causes of hematological diseases and led to the development of new drug
therapies and recombinant proteins.

Now in its fourth edition, Molecular Hematology has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect current advances
in molecular research. Chapters introduce and summarize specific disorders, such as hemophilia, anemia, and multiple
myeloma, and illustrate the impact of molecular research on their diagnoses and treatments. Contributions written by
respected clinicians and researchers offer accessible coverage of topics including lymphoma genetics, molecular
coagulation and thrombophilia, platelet disorders, pharmacogenomics, and many others.

Provides overviews of recent advances in cancer-cell biology, with an emphasis on leukemia and lymphoma

Offers new and updated chapters written by an international team of experts in the field

Presents new full-color charts, graphs, and illustrations

Includes access to a Wiley Companion Digital Edition providing search across the book, downloadable illustrations
and notation tools
