Description for Cell Death Signaling in Cancer Biology and Treatment
Hardback. Discussing both preclinical and clinical approaches to targeted attacks on tumor cells, this is a key contribution to the fight against cancer, sharing cutting-edge research on the molecular and biological processes regulating cell death in malignant tumors. Editor(s): Johnson, Daniel E. Series: Cell Death in Biology and Diseases. Num Pages: 408 pages, 10 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: MFCC; MJCL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 28. Weight in Grams: 795.
A key goal in the treatment of cancer is to achieve selective and efficient killing of tumor cells. The aim of Cell Death Signaling in Cancer Biology and Treatment is to describe state-of-the-art approaches and future opportunities for achieving this goal by targeting mechanisms and pathways that regulate cancer cell death. In this book, molecular defects in cell death signaling that characterize cancer cells, including dysregulation of cell death due to overexpression/hyperactivation of oncoproteins, as well as the loss of tumor suppressor proteins will be described. The potential for targeting microRNAs will be discussed. Multiple chapters will describe preclinical and ... Read more
