Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the leading causes of death in the developed countries. Myocardial infarction (MI) is an acute episode of CAD that results in myocardial injury and subsequent heart failure (HF). In the acute phase of MI several risk factors for future cardiovascular events have been found. The molecular mechanisms of these disorders are still unknown, but altered gene expression may play an important role in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases. High-throughput techniques should greatly facilitate the elucidation of the mechanisms and provide novel insights into the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases. In this review we focus on the perspectives of gene-expression profiling conducted on cardiac tissues and blood for the determination of novel diagnostic and prognostic markers and therapeutic targets.

New insights on Pediatric Tumors and Associated Cancer Predisposition Syndromes
Because of the broad spectrum of children cancer susceptibility, the diagnosis of cancer risk syndromes in children is rarely used in direct cancer treatment. The field of pediatric cancer genetics and genomics will only continue to expand as a result of increasing use of genetic testing tools. It's possible that ...read more
