... VI MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR APPROACHES TO NUTRITION In Part VI, Chapters 16 and 17 focus on molecular approaches to nutrition research, while Chapters 18 and 19 concentrate on cellular approaches. In Chapter 16, metal-regulated gene expression is reviewed.
From page 362...
... Chapters 16 and 17 describe molecular techniques that may permit the identification of stress-responsive genes whose expression would be beneficial to control, and the authors indicate that in the future it may be possible to combine nutritional therapy with gene modification. However, the use of techniques to study gene expression is still limited in its application to nutritional problems.
