Ecology and Evolution of Cancer
Author: Beata Ujvari
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128043806
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Ecology and Evolution of Cancer is a timely work outlining ideas that not only represent a substantial and original contribution to the fields of evolution, ecology, and cancer, but also goes beyond by connecting the interfaces of these disciplines. This work engages the expertise of a multidisciplinary research team to collate and review the latest knowledge and developments in this exciting research field. The evolutionary perspective of cancer has gained significant international recognition and interest, which is fully understandable given that somatic cellular selection and evolution are elegant explanations for carcinogenesis. Cancer is now generally accepted to be an evolutionary and ecological process with complex interactions between tumor cells and their environment sharing many similarities with organismal evolution. As a critical contribution to this field of research the book is important and relevant for the applications of evolutionary biology to understand the origin of cancers, to control neoplastic progression, and to prevent therapeutic failures. Covers all aspects of the evolution of cancer, appealing to researchers seeking to understand its origins and effects of treatments on its progression, as well as to lecturers in evolutionary medicine Functions as both an introduction to cancer and evolution and a review of the current research on this burgeoning, exciting field, presented by an international group of leading editors and contributors Improves understanding of the origin and the evolution of cancer, aiding efforts to determine how this disease interferes with biotic interactions that govern ecosystems Highlights research that intends to apply evolutionary principles to help predict emergence and metastatic progression with the aim of improving therapies

Molecular Analysis of Cancer
Author: Jacqueline Boultwood
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1592591353
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
Over the past 20 years, technological advances in molecular biology have proven invaluable to the understanding of the pathogenesis of human cancer. The application of molecular technology to the study of cancer has not only led to advances in tumor diagnosis, but has also provided markers for the assessment of prognosis and disease progression. The aim of Molecular Ana- sis of Cancer is to provide a comprehensive collection of the most up-to-date techniques for the detection of molecular changes in human cancer. Leading researchers in the field have contributed chapters detailing practical pro- dures for a wide range of state-of-the-art techniques. Molecular Analysis of Cancer includes chapters describing techniques for the identification of chromosomal abnormalities and comprising: fluor- cent in situ hybridization (FISH), spectral karyotyping (SKY), comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), and microsatellite analysis. FISH has a pro- nent role in the molecular analysis of cancer and can be used for the detection of numerical and structural chromosomal abnormalities. The recently described SKY, in which all human metaphase chromosomes are visualized in specific colors, allows for the definition of all chromosomal rearrangements and marker chromosomes in a tumor cell. Protocols for the detection of chromosomal re- rangements by PCR and RT-PCR are described, as well as the technique of DNA fingerprinting, a powerful tool for studying somatic genetic alterations in tumorigenesis.

Bone Tumors in Domestic Animals
Author: Leonardo Leonardi
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030902102
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
This book comparatively examines the etiopathogenetic, clinical-pathological, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies of the main bone tumors of domestic animals. The book also includes a description of the most significant aspects of macroscopic, microscopic, immunohistochemical, instrumental, diagnostic imaging and molecular biology aspects of spontaneous bone tumors in Veterinary Medicine, with also interspecies comparative aspects, including the human one. Last but not least, the book provides an overview of the new diagnostic and therapeutic frontiers related to the approach to animal bone tumors. The book serves as essential reading for professionals, researchers and students who work or want to tackle three paths in the field of comparative veterinary bone oncology.
