Cancer Genetics and Therapeutics
Author: Madhumita Roy
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811394717
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
The book discusses cancer and the potential use of phytochemicals as cancer therapeutics. It begins with the basics of cancer, including the definition, types, etiology and molecular mechanisms involved, before discussing the fundamentals of diagnosis, treatment and associated problems as well as remedial measures. Since cancer is not a single disease, and the mechanisms of carcinogenesis are different for different cancers, it examines the genes and proteins involved in carcinogenesis, and signal transduction pathways for each individual cancer type. Further, the book reviews the latest research on phytochemicals for cancer treatment, highlighting their anti-cancer properties, sources, structure, active biomolecules and probable mechanisms of action, and describing their biochemical properties in the context of cancer prevention and treatment.

Mitochondria as Targets for Phytochemicals in Cancer Prevention and Therapy
Author: Dhyan Chandra
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461493269
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
This book highlights the importance of phytochemicals and mitochondria in cancer prevention and therapy. Recent scientific discoveries have identified that naturally occurring biologically active compounds (i.e. phytochemicals) target multiple steps of tumorigenesis leading to the inhibition or delay in cancer progression. Mitochondria, organelles within a cell, are a critical target for phytochemicals in regulating the initiation, promotion, and progression of cancer. The book is divided into three parts to better communicate the important findings related to phytochemicals and mitochondria in cancer research. The first part describes updates on environmental and genetic factors causing cancer initiation and progression, the role of mitochondria function in regulating the process of tumorigenesis, and the role of mitochondria in regulating cell death such as apoptosis, autophagy, and necroptosis. The second part focuses on the elucidation of key target proteins that could be exploited for cancer prevention, an the role of phytochemicals in cancer prevention, updates on basic research related to phytochemicals action critical for cancer prevention, and updates on translational knowledge on cancer prevention by phytochemicals. The third part provides updates on phytochemicals targeting mitochondria for cancer therapy, an overview of action of phytochemicals on cancer stem cells, updates on the role of microRNA in phytochemicals-based therapy of cancer, and updates on phytochemicals-based translation research on therapy for metastatic cancer.

Evolution of Phytochemicals and Phytotherapies in the Treatment and Management of Cancer: Targeted Strategies in Cancer Precision Medicine
Author: Mohd Adnan
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832539580
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
There is a rising recurrence of cancers in humans and related complications of chemotherapeutic agents that reduce the clinical potency of numerous anticancer agents, including those which are currently in use. Hence, there is a consistent need for the development of alternative or synergistic anticancer drugs with lower side complications. One imperative approach to develop novel anticancer agents with potent efficiency is to discover natural resource-derived bioactive compounds. Diverse phytochemical constituents (like vincristine, vinblastine, taxol analogs etc.) derived from plants have been manifested as effective therapeutics in the treatment, prevention and management of cancer. Therefore, phytochemical constituents aid as prime source and candidates for the discovery of anticancer drugs, particularly when they are screened against their molecular targets via various approaches. Plants are predicted to have innumerable functional phytochemical constituents with potent features, which can be explored via in silico, in vitro as well as in vivo approaches for targeted cancer therapy and the most suitable cascade can be identified. Therefore, this research topic aims to cover the current trends and advancements in phytotherapies with an emphasis on targeted strategies in cancer precision medicine.

Nutraceuticals and Cancer
Author: Fazlul H. Sarkar
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400726309
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
This book is about Nutraceuticals in cancer therapy, specifically targeted and Adjuvant therapy. It shows several approaches for possibly reducing systemic toxicity. This book illustrates the role of several dietary agents, collectively called nutraceuticals or natural agents in the prevention and/or treatment of human malignancies known to be mediated through alterations in multiple molecular targets. This book contains sixteen chapters which begin with historical perspective on the value of natural agents in the prevention of human malignancies followed by a series of current topics on multiple nutraceuticals targeting multiple cancers. This collection would likely be useful for bringing newer generations with broader perspectives in launching cutting-edge innovative molecular research, which would certainly help in designing targeted clinical trials in order to realize the dream of customize strategies for the prevention and/or treatment of human malignancies without causing any systemic toxicity. Moreover, the knowledge gained would allow novel utilization of nutraceuticals as adjunct to both conventional chemotherapy and radiation therapy in order to improve the overall quality of life and survival of patients diagnosed with cancers.
