Editors:
Currently no comprehensive overview on potential and challenges of RNAi and other RNA technologies for basic cardiovascular biology and for the clinical management of patients with cardiovascular disorders
Book will be comprehensive in that it does not only treat the phenomenon of RNAi in all its facets (as most recently published books), but does explicitly cover the many other aspects of the “RNA World” (pathogenic and therapeutic potential of microRNAs, aptamer technology, etc.), too
With this significantly broadened scope as compared to currently existing books it appears to be an urgently needed new publication

About this book
In this book the authors review the field and explore the potential role of RNAi and other RNA technologies in cardiovascular medicine and research. They highlight the impressive recent progress but also the hurdles that still must be overcome before this promising technology is finally ready for translation and clinical use.
