ABSTRACT
Clinical single-cell biomedicine has become a new emerging discipline, which integrates single-cell RNA and DNA sequencing, proteomics, and functions with clinical phenomes, therapeutic responses, and prognosis. It is of great value to discover disease-, phenome-, and therapy-specific diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets on the basis of the principle of clinical single-cell biomedicine. This book reviews the roles of single-cell sequencing and methylation in diseases and explores disease-specific alterations of single-cell sequencing and methylation, especially focusing on potential applications of methodologies on human single-cell sequencing and methylation, on potential correlations between those changes with pulmonary diseases, and on potential roles of signaling pathways that cause heterogeneous cellular responses during treatment. This book also emphasizes the importance of methodologies in clinical practice and application, the potential of perspectives, challenges and solutions, and the significance of single-cell preparation standardization. Alterations of DNA and RNA methylation, demethylation in lung diseases, and a deep knowledge about the regulation and function of target gene methylation for diagnosing and treating diseases at the early stage are also provided. Importantly, this book aims to apply the measurement of single-cell sequencing and methylation for clinical diagnosis and treatment and to understand clinical values of those parameters and to headline and foresee the potential values of the application of single-cell sequencing in non-cancer diseases.
