Author:ISBN:786Genre:File Size:73.75 MBFormat:PDF, ePub, DocsDownload:733Read:669'Introduction to Cancer Biology is a short primer on how cancers develop and grow. The aim of this book is to provide a gentle exploration of the fundamental concepts in a easy-to-understand format, using examples and key figures for illustration. It is written in a style to help the reader understand the six basic principles that inform our current understanding of cancer, at the molecular, cellular and physiological level.
The text can be used either as a first step towards a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of cancer progression or it can be used as a quick revision guide. It would be suitable for anyone, with or without a background in biology.'

KingISBN:Genre:MedicalFile Size:54.61 MBFormat:PDF, DocsDownload:528Read:983Cancer Biology provides a clear, concise and authoritative introduction to the biological principles that underlie the causes and treatment of cancer, drawing on the author's extensive research and teaching experience to guide students through this complex subject. The study of cancer encompasses cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, epidemiology and medical sciences and this text brings together these diverse areas.
The emphasis is on human aspects, with underlying principles illustrated by specific examples which are supplemented with data from other species where appropriate. The new edition has been updated throughout with new material on chemoprevention, DNA repair, telomerase, apoptosis, signal transduction, cell adhesion, angiogenesis and new treatments. A new appendix provides descriptions of 15 selected cancers, with data on cancer risks and survival rates, and notes on risk factors and metastasis.
Author:Leonard Maurice FranksISBN:Genre:MedicalFile Size:21.63 MBFormat:PDF, ePubDownload:251Read:1073The third edition of this repected textbook has been extensively revised and updated by the authors and editors to achieve the same objectives as the two earlier editions - to provide a relatively brief but comprehensive introduction to the initiation, development, and treatment of cancer.After an introduction describing the pathology and natural history of the disease, subsequent chapters survey particular areas of research, concentrating on the principles involved and recent developments. Each topic is reviewed authoritatively by acknowledged experts, in a way that will beunderstood by non-experts in the field.The chapters on epidemiology, genetic and chromosome changes, oncogenes, chemical and radiation carcinogenesis, growth factors, the biology of human leukaemia, and hormones and cancer have been rewritten and/or extensively revised and new developments resulting from the wide application of currenttechniques in cellular and molecular biology to the study of cancer are included. Other chapters have been revised and brought up to date, and new chapters are inclueed on cytokines and cancer, the molecular pathology of cancer, and cancer prevention and screening.Introduction to the Molecular and Celluar Bilogy of Cancer provides a general survey of the whole field of cancer as a basis for research and will serve as a valuable introduction to students and scientists new to the field. Author:Chris JacobsISBN:490Genre:MedicalFile Size:67.39 MBFormat:PDF, ePub, DocsDownload:336Read:597The role of genetics is becoming increasingly important in all aspects of healthcare and particularly in the field of cancer care. Genetics for Health Professionals in Cancer Care: From Principles to Practice equips health professionals with the knowledge and skills required for all aspects of managing cancer family history. This includes taking an accurate cancer family history and drawing a family tree; understanding cancer biology, basic cancer genetics and the genes involved in hereditary breast, ovarian, prostate, colorectal, gastric and related gynaecological cancers and rare cancer predisposing syndromes; assessing cancer risk and communicating risk information; early detection and risk reducing measures available for those at increased risk and managing individuals with hereditary cancer.

Drawing on experiences of health professionals, Genetics for Health Professionals in Cancer Care discusses the challenges raised and provides practical advice and insight into what happens when a patient is referred for genetic counselling and genetic testing, including the psychological, social and ethical issues faced by individuals and families with and at risk of hereditary cancer. The book also provides practical guidance on setting up a cancer family history clinic in primary and secondary care. Genetics for Health Professionals in Cancer Care is essential reading for healthcare professionals working with cancer patients and their families, and is an ideal reference text for non-specialists working in cancer genetics.
