Overview

Exosomal RNA: Role in Human Diseases and Therapy provides an in-depth study of exosomes and their RNA in the context of a variety of diseases. The book explores the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of exosomal RNA as biomarkers across a range of different conditions, including cancer, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular and renal disease, as well as bacterial infections and tissue repair. The link between exosomal RNA expression and neurodegenerative disease is also explored. The book goes on to share the significance of exosomal RNA in preserving cellular function, with special attention given to their role in the autophagy process. This book also gives an overview of the isolation, characterization, and potential applications of exosomal RNA, providing researchers with an understanding of how they can be manipulated and utilized for the treatment of various diseases and conditions. This is an ideal reference for researchers in the field of molecular biology, cell biology, and related fields, as well as those involved in the development of therapeutics and personalized medicine.

Dr. Mainak Mukhopadhyay is currently working as Associate Professor at the Department of Biosciences, JIS University, Kolkata, India. Previously, he worked as a research fellow at ONGC Energy Centre, Delhi, India. He holds a PhD in Bioenergy from the Agricultural and Food Engineering Department, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India. He has been awarded the Petrotech Research Fellowship in 2008. In 2016 he was awarded the Early Career Research Award from DST-SERB. In addition to editing two books, he has co-authored 13 peer-reviewed papers, 19 book chapters and filled 3 patents. Professor Kursad Turksen received his PhD from the University of Toronto in the area of osteoprogenitor biology and cell selection methodologies. He then did postdoctoral training at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Chicago, USA, studying epidermal biology through the use of genetically-altered mouse models. He joined the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute where he rose to the position of Senior Scientist in the Division of Regenerative Medicine. His research interests focus on stem cell biology, with a particular interest in the Claudin family of tight junction proteins and their role in epidermal lineage commitment and progression during development in health and disease. Dr. Turksen is currently series editor of Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine (Springer Nature) and Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine (Springer Nature).
