Description
Cancer Signaling: From Molecular Biology to Targeted Therapy – eBook PDF
Cancer, which has become the second-most dominant health issue globally, is fundamentally a malfunction of cell signalling. Understanding how the complex signalling networks of cells and tissues allow cancer to thrive – and how they can be turned into strong weapons against it – is the key to handling cancer in the clinic and enhancing the outcome of cancer therapies.
In Cancer Signaling, (PDF), the authors give a compelling story of how cancer works on the molecular level, and how targeted therapies using kinase inhibitors and other modulators of signaling pathways can contain and ultimately cure it.
The first part of the ebook gives an introduction to the cell and molecular biology of cancer, stressing the key mechanisms of cancer formation. The second part of the ebook introduces the main signalling transduction mechanisms responsible for carcinogenesis and matches their function in healthy versus cancer cells. In contradiction of the complexity of its topic, the text is easy to read. 32 particularly prepared teaching videos on key concepts and pathways in cancer signaling are available online for users of the print edition and have been included in the text in the enhanced e-book edition.
NOTE: The product only includes the ebook Cancer Signaling: From Molecular Biology to Targeted Therapy in PDF. No access codes are included.
