This book ventures into a new and exciting area of discovery that directly ties our current knowledge of cancer to the discovery of microorganisms associated with different types of cancers. Recent st
This volume, a state-of-the-art review of early phase clinical trials for cancer immunotherapy, discusses biomarker selection, combinatorial strategies and their safety or toxicity, determination of P
This volume provides an integrated account of our current understanding of the functions of D-type cyclins during development and tumorigenesis, with special emphasis on the kinase-independent functio
This volume covers the most important areas of glioblastoma – surgical resection, molecular pathology, targeted therapies, cancer stem cells, the role of DNA methylation, targeted sequencing for perso
This volume provides the latest research on circulating tumor cells aimed for cancer researchers, scientists, and molecular oncologists. It presents the basic concepts behind circulating tumor cells (
This book provides an unprecedented overview of "Targeted Therapies" for acute myeloid leukemias. It aims at an almost comprehensive coverage of the diverse therapeutic strategies th
Recent advances in understanding of fundamental immunology have created new insights into the dynamic interactions between tumors and the immune system. This includes new understanding of T- and B-cel
?????Autophagy (self-eating) is a lysosomal catabolic pathway, which plays essential roles in protein and organelle control, defense against invading pathogens, survival, development, and homeostasis.
The study of Burkitt’s lymphoma is now in its 6 decade beginning with its discovery by Dr. Dennis Burkitt in equatorial Africa in the mid to late 1950’s. A large body of information is available which
Cancer is fundamentally a disease of abnormal cell proliferation: Cancer cells multiply when and where they should not. This proliferation entails escape from normal bounds imposed by the tissue envir
Caveolins are important structural proteins of Caveolae, small invaginations of the membrane. They have been shown to play an important role in the pathogenesis of multiple cancers. In this volume, we
Molecular Determinants of Radiation Response includes chapters by expert authors who detail the present understanding of key DNA damage response pathways and proteins. The chapters include comprehens
This volume will provide a contemporary account of advances in chemical carcinogenesis. It will promote the view that it is chemical alteration of the DNA that is a route cause of many cancers. The mu
Cancer gene therapy is a novel therapy that targets the underlying genetic defects in the cancer cell. Progress in this field has been rapid and gene therapy promises to further extend personalized ca
The Protein Kinase C (PKC) serine-threonine kinases represent one &tile first families of signaling molecules implicated in carcinogenesis. Originally identified as the intracellular targets for the
World-wide thousands of people with Cancer have benefited from Susan's all-natural health program, which she calls MOTEP. Survive Cancer! tells the story of others who have chosen a natural route to s
