Retinoids in Development and Disease

Retinoids in Development and Disease by Norbert Ghyselinck and Gregg Duester is an authoritative, contemporary exploration of how retinoid signaling shapes embryonic development, tissue homeostasis, and human disease. Written by leading experts, this volume brings clarity to a complex field that bridges basic science and clinical relevance.

Delving into molecular mechanisms of retinoic acid action, gene regulation, and receptor biology, the book surveys organogenesis, neural and limb development, metabolic regulation, and the role of retinoids in cancer and congenital disorders. Each chapter synthesizes cutting-edge research with translational perspectives, making difficult concepts accessible without sacrificing scientific rigor.

Ideal for researchers, clinicians, graduate students, and industry scientists, this title serves as both a reference and a practical guide for those working in developmental biology, dermatology, oncology, and regenerative medicine. Readers will gain insight into experimental approaches, emerging therapeutic avenues, and the challenges of targeting retinoid pathways safely and effectively.

Globally relevant and meticulously curated, Retinoids in Development and Disease is an essential addition to academic libraries, medical centers, and laboratory collections across the US, UK, Europe, and beyond. Clear writing, thorough citations, and authoritative analysis make it an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to understand how retinoids influence health and disease.

Add this definitive work to your collection today to stay at the forefront of retinoid research and its clinical implications.
