With the field of genetically triggered aortopathies growing, this important reference will compile the newest discoveries in this field, allowing cardiologists, cardio-thoracic surgeons, clinical geneticists, vascular surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, and researchers to gain the knowledge they need without having to gather the data from various sources. Coverage includes genotype and phenotype correlations, the functional role of SMAD3, and insights into the role of TGFbeta signaling in aortic disease. The book will increase knowledge about AOS, providing awareness and better patient care for this aggressive disease."--Website publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Online resource, title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed October 23, 2016) Subject Aneurysms -- Genetic aspects Osteoarthritis -- Genetic aspects Molecular biology.
