Epigenetics of Metabolism

Epigenetics of Metabolism, a new volume in the Translational Epigenetics series, comprehensively explores epigenetic changes and the regulation of nutrient metabolism related to human development and disease. Here, international leaders in the field provide a broad overview of epigenetics in bodily and cellular metabolism, including epigenetic mechanisms involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids, as well as in related diseases. Also discussed are the roles of vitamins and minerals in epigenetics of metabolism, epigenetic changes in deficiency or toxicity of micronutrients, and the effects of natural plants, phytochemicals and intestinal bacteria.

This book offers researchers, students and health care practitioners a full grounding in nutrient-gene interactions in metabolism, with applied knowledge, research methods and protocols, and clinical pathways to drive new discovery and medical outcomes.
