This book provides a comprehensive overview of the genetic basis
underlying endocrine diseases. It covers both the molecular and
clinical consequences of these genetic defects, as well as the
relevance for clinical care, highlighting issues of genetic
counseling. Several endocrine diseases have a genetic background,
and contemporary research in the field plays a crucial role in the
clinical care of endocrine diseases. In recent years, there have
been major developments in our understanding of the genetic basis
of endocrine diseases. Several novel genes and mutations
predisposing individuals to monogenic endocrine diseases have been
discovered, and with the advent of next generation sequencing, a
huge amount of new data has become available. Further, novel
molecular mechanisms, such as genomic imprinting, have been
implicated in the pathogenesis of endocrine diseases. A better
understanding of the genetic background of these diseases is
relevant not only from the research perspective, but also in terms
of clinical care. As such, this book is an essential read for both
researchers and clinicians working in the field.
