Understanding Cancer: From Basics to Therapeutics

Understanding Cancer: From Basics to Therapeutics presents both basic concepts and research prospects in the field of cancer biology. This book summarizes the fundamental aspects of cancer and presents a detailed description of molecular aspects as well as treatment and therapeutics for patients.

The book is divided into three parts: the first part deals with the basics of cancer, including etiology and medical diagnosis; the second part explores the molecular mechanisms associated with cancer, focusing on cell cycle and apoptosis, cell metabolism, gene regulation, epigenetics, and stem cells; and the third part is dedicated to therapeutics, discussing chemo and radiotherapies, gene, hormone, herbal, and immunotherapies.

It is a valuable resource for cancer researchers, oncologists, graduate students, and biomedical researchers who need to understand the fundamental topics related to cancer to apply to their research work or clinical setting.
