MicroRNA in Human Infectious Diseases offers a comprehensive overview of the therapeutic and diagnostic roles of microRNAs across bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections. This reference begins with a foundation on microRNA mechanisms and biogenesis before diving into their potential impact on clinical practice.

📌 Key Features:

• Broad Disease Coverage: Examines microRNA applications in sexually transmitted infections, typhoid, tuberculosis, dengue, Ebola, COVID-19, malaria, leishmaniasis, and lymphatic filariasis.

• Therapeutic Role: Discusses how microRNAs influence treatment pathways in bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases.

• Diagnostic Potential: Reviews microRNA-based approaches for improving the detection and prognosis of infectious diseases.

• System Approaches: Dedicated section on web-based tools for microRNA target prediction and the latest technologies for manipulation and modification.

• Respiratory Viral Focus: Includes a chapter on microRNA in respiratory infections, with emphasis on COVID-19.
