Molecular Carcinogenesis and the Molecular Biology of Human Cancer

About this book

To gain a complete overview of what is presently known about molecular carcinogenesis would prove to be a very daunting task for those not already steeped in this complex subject. Providing an in-depth summary of the molecular aspects of carcinogenesis, this text comprehensively covers chemical, radiation, and viral carcinogenesis - from animal and human test data to metabolism and DNA binding. It covers organic and metal carcinogenesis related to lung, breast, prostate, skin, liver, colon, brain, and thyroid cancers. The book explores the human implications of data regarding oncogenesis of transgenic and knockout mice and rats. It also covers the genomics and proteomics of chemoprevention, risk and exposure assessments, and regulation of carcinogens. Molecular Carcinogenesis and the Molecular Biology of Human Cancer is an ideal text for graduate courses in cancer.
