Explore the intricate world of mental retardation and developmental delay with ‘Mental Retardation and Developmental Delay: Genetic and Epigenetic Factors’. This essential guide from Oxford Monographs on Medical Genetics synthesizes recent breakthroughs in neuroscience and genetics, shedding light on the etiological factors behind these conditions. Delve into DNA sequencing, gene expression regulation, and epigenetics, understanding how the human genome project informs our investigation into the pathogenesis of mental retardation. Essential for neurologists, geneticists, and pediatricians, this book bridges current knowledge with clinical practice, covering normal and abnormal brain development, neurogenesis, and signal transduction. It details genetic and environmental factors contributing to neurocognitive deficits, discusses gene involvement in non-syndromic intellectual disability and autism, and concludes with practical insights into carrier detection and treatment strategies.
