Challenges in Delivery of Therapeutic Genomics and Proteomics

Challenges in Delivery of Therapeutic Genomics and Proteomics, Second Edition is a complete reference addressing the biological principles involved in gene and protein delivery to cells and tissues. Highlighting the various chemical, physical and biological approaches to protein and gene delivery, this book provides guidelines for pharmaceutical researchers in academia and corporate R&D. This new edition brings updates on the delivery of therapeutic proteomics and genomics in each chapter, and newly developed chapters on regulatory aspects of related products, CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, and computational tools in genomics and proteomics. After an overview of the barriers to genomics and proteomics delivery, the book dives into physical, chemical, and biological methods of gene delivery. Further chapters discuss extensively the delivery of proteins and therapeutic peptides through the respiratory, oral, parenteral, transdermal, topical, uterine, and rectal pathways. Challenges in Delivery of Therapeutic Genomics and Proteomics, Second Edition represents an effort to encompass the knowledge about the origins of human diseases, systems biology and various aspects of personalized medicine and challenges in the field, to improve the effectiveness of genomics and proteomics therapies. This book is the ideal reference for pharmaceutical scientists dealing with gene and protein/peptide delivery. Regulators and corporate researchers can also benefit from the wide coverage of delivery methods presented.
