Cancer Metastasis, Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms and Clinical Intervention
Author: Wen G. JiangPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0306483882
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
This book covers the molecular and cellular aspects of cancer metastasis, and discusses the clinical aspect of micro- and macro-metastases, which result in the death of the majority of patients with cancer. The current edition attempts to examine the current status of the basic scientific and clinical research in the area, and is a very useful reference for clinicians, oncologists, and biologists. It is intended for undergraduates as well as postgraduates in the area of medicine, oncology, and cancer biology.
Molecular Mechanisms of Cancer
Author: Georg F. WeberPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1402060165
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 643
Book Description
This book describes molecular processes whose deregulation is important in the formation of tumors. The material is developed from basic cell signaling pathways to their roles in the clinical manifestation of specific cancers. Topics covered include molecular events intrinsic to tumor cells (leading to growth deregulation, extended lifespan, and the ability to invade surrounding tissue), protective mechanisms that prevent transformation (including DNA repair and epigenetic regulation), tumor-host interactions (with the endocrine system, the immune system, and blood vessel formation), and the underlying molecular defects of individual cancers.

Book Description
The study of metastases now being vigorously pursued and the centre of much renewed interest is the essence of malignancy. Understanding how metastases develop and what can be done to control them is of vital importance to all oncologists. The reason for this renewed interest is due not only to the relevance of the problem, but is in part due to progress in other fields and their impact on metastases research. Metastasis is a phase in the progression of tumors and can be viewed as the final step in the pathology of malignancy. The various phases of the progression of tumors now appear more and more s parts of the total process of carcinogenesis, beginning with initiation and reaching stepwise the extreme condition of metastatic spread. The problem is therefore not only describing a biologic process, but to explain it in terms of mechanism. In this sense, fields which were far removed from the problems of metastasis are now part of it (e.g. genetics of metastasizing cell, oncogene expression, molecular biology of membrane etc.) The International Congress on Cancer Metastasis - Biological and Biochemical Mechanisms and Clinical Aspects, held in Bologna in My 1987 offered a comprehensive overview of the different aspects of the field. Special emphasis is given in this volume to the biology of metastasis and its relevance to treatment.
Inflammation and Cancer
Author: Bharat B. AggarwalPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3034808372
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 489
Book Description
This volume examines in detail the role of chronic inflammatory processes in the development of several types of cancer. Leading experts describe the latest results of molecular and cellular research on infection, cancer-related inflammation and tumorigenesis. Further, the clinical significance of these findings in preventing cancer progression and approaches to treating the diseases are discussed. Individual chapters cover cancer of the lung, colon, breast, brain, head and neck, pancreas, prostate, bladder, kidney, liver, cervix and skin as well as gastric cancer, sarcoma, lymphoma, leukemia and multiple myeloma.
