Books about Anticancer Research

This volume discusses the value of research on tumor suppressor genes and the structure-function relationship of the corresponding proteins. The applicability of these non-peptide molecules to anti-cancer drugs is also taken up; and by focusing on contemporary research issues in the field, the book aims to promote understanding and cooperation

Cancer is an incredibly diverse and difficult disease to treat, and even after decades of research there is no definitive cure. Therefore, it is highly crucial to search for novel and new organic molecules with high potency, low toxicity, and low mutagenicity with selective anticancer properties that are able to

This book discusses the emergence of a new class of genes with a specific anticancer activity. These genes, recently defined as “Anticancer Genes”, are reviewed in individual chapters on their mode of action, the specific cell death signals they induce, and the status of attempts to translate them into clinical
