Metastasis is the primary cause of mortality associated with cancer, and tumor genomic heterogeneity is a likely source for the cells that support cancer progression, resistance to therapy, and disease relapse. This book connects cancer metastasis with genomic instability in a comprehensive manner. Section 1 outlines the fundamental mechanisms responsible for these cellular and tissue phenotypes. Section 2 discusses in silico, in vitro, and in vivo models used for the experimental study of these processes. Section 3 reviews emerging themes (ex., microenvironment, mechanotransduction, and immunomodulation), and Section 4 highlights new therapeutic approaches to overcome the unique challenges presented by the heterogeneous ...

Reviews for Genomic Instability and Cancer Metastasis
“This book connects cancer metastasis, the major cause of death in patients with malignancy, with genomic instability. For oncologists and biologists.” (Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews (PER), Vol. 12 (4), 2015)
