The Molecular Basis of Human Cancer
Editat de William B. Coleman, Gregory J. Tsongalisen Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 dec 2018
This book covers the concepts of molecular medicine and personalized medicine. Subsequent chapters cover the topics of genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, and proteomics, as the tools of molecular pathology and foundations of molecular medicine. These chapters are followed by a series of chapters that provide overviews of molecular medicine as applied broadly to neoplastic, genetic, and infectious diseases, as well as a chapter on molecular diagnostics. The volume concludes with a chapter that delves into the promise of molecular medicine in the personalized treatment of patients with complex diseases, along with a discussion of the challenges and obstacles to personalized patient care.
The Molecular Basis of Human Cancer, Second Edition, is a valuable resource for oncologists, researchers, and all medical professionals who work with cancer.

Recenzii
"The structure of the book is fairly conventional, with an excellent scene-setting chapter that provides a clear description of widely applied methodologies....The tumor-specific chapters are well written and will attract those with interests in particular tumor-types. The colorectal chapters is especially well written, focussing on how the genetic alterations lead to changes in signal transduction pathways, which underpin disordered growth regulation. All chapters are extensively referenced....the book is well written and should be useful to fellows just about to enter the laboratory to undertake a period of molecular research, and for those established clinicians who require a detailed update on the contribution that molecular biology has made to cancer research." - Annals of Oncology
"This is an excellent volume for both investigators in the field of oncology as well as practicing oncologists." -Quarterly Review of Biology
