Translational Gastroenterology: Organogenesis to Disease bridges
the gap between basic and clinical research by providing
information on GI (gastrointestinal) organ development discovered
through scientific inquiry, alongside clinical observations of
acquired and congenital abnormalities. Paired chapters, written
from basic science and clinical viewpoints, review the major
biological pathways and molecules at work in organ ontogeny and
disease. In addition to a comprehensive survey of GI organ
development and pathologies, the book also highlights model
organisms and new areas of research, with chapters devoted to
recent advances in the field of GI stem cell biology, and the
potential for tissue engineering of GI organs. The topics covered
provide a unique window onto current activity in the field of
gastroenterology, fostering enhanced knowledge for developmental
biologists as well as for clinical practitioners. Notable features
include the following: Basic science chapters review the molecular
and cellular pathways of GI organ development alongside clinical
chapters examining organ-based diseases, closing the gap between
the bench and the clinic. Derivative organs esophagus, stomach,
pylorus, small intestine, colon, liver, and pancreas as well as
tissues such as serosa and enteric nervous system that are common
to multiple GI organs. Chapters detailing the use of model
organisms Drosophila, sea urchin, zebrafish, C. elegans, Xenopus
for basic discovery studies are included. Chapters on GI stem cells
and the potential for tissue engineering of the GI organs provide a
view to the future of research and therapy in these organs.
