Cet ouvrage reproduit les vingt-neuf chroniques parues de fin 1991 à 2002, accompagnées de commentaires qui les résultent dans leur contexte et examinent si, avec le recul, elles se révèlent ou non pertinentes.C'est donc un document qui fournit un éclairage sur ces dix années au cours desquelles la séquence de l'ADN humain, pur fantasme à usage politique au début, est devenue une réalité scientifique- sans pour antant, bien sûr, répondre à toutes les questions que pose la biologie.

The primary objective of this book is to provide the current status of and new data on the molecular mechanisms affecting the efficacy of somatic cell cloning, but also insightful interpretations of the topical and coming trends in the exploration of genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic and proteomic profiles for nuclear donor cells, nuclear recipient oocytes and SCNT-derived embryos. Comprehensively deciphering the crucial molecular scenarios responsible for inter-genomic, inter-epigenomic, inter-transcriptomic and inter-proteomic communication within the framework of the aforementioned scenarios might be a milestone giving rise to the enhancements in the extra- and intracorporeal epigenetic reprogrammabilities of donor cell nuclei in nuclear-transferred oocytes, embryos, conceptuses and neonates. In turn, this might allow us to use SCNT-mediated ARTs in such research fields as biotechnology, transgenics, medicine, and biopharmacology, as well as scientific efforts targeted at designing the in vitro and in vivo models of molecular and epigenomic landscapes specific for inheritable and acquired disorders in humans and other mammalian species.

Embryo cleavage experiences a series of critical events and remarkable epigenetic modifications, especially morphological change and gene expression. The development of current assisted reproductive technology has created some new observations and novel discoveries in cleavage embryos. This book updates some new technologies and methods on the study of cleavage embryos to select high-quality embryos for transfer and improve embryo implantation and pregnancy. Major contents include embryo cleavage morphokinetics based on time-lapse imaging, gene expression of cleavage embryo and noninvasive assessment, and improving embryo cleavage technology. Thus, this book will greatly add new information for embryologists to select good-quality embryos for transfer to improve human embryo transfer pregnancy rate.

""Central dogma"" was presented by Dr. Francis Crick 60 years ago. The information of nucleotide sequences on DNAs is transcribed into RNAs by RNA polymerases. We learned the mechanisms of how transcription determines function of proteins and behaviour of cells and even how it brings appearances of organisms. This book is intended for scientists and medical researchers especially who are interested in the relationships between transcription and human diseases. This volume consists of an introductory chapter and 14 chapters, divided into 4 parts. Each chapter is written by experts in the basic scientific field. A collection of articles presented by active and laboratory-based investigators provides recent advances and progresses in the field of transcriptional regulation in mammalian cells.

The new Genetic Diagnostics Act of July 31, 2009 raises important questions in the area of ​​conflict between divergent perspectives, especially in the dialogue between human genetics and law. about the organization of the genetic counseling, the tasks of the newly created genetic diagnosis commission or regarding the prenatal genetic diagnosis. At the same time, the focus is on the classic medical law aspects of medical information and consent as well as data protection issues. This multifaceted spectrum of questions was the subject of a Göttingen workshop on medical law in November 2010, jointly organized by the Institute for Human Genetics (Faculty of Medicine) and the Center for Medical Law (Faculty of Law). The contributions and results of this conference are made available to the interested public in this volume.
