The Molecular Basis of Human Cancer
In this text, international experts in basic and clinical science provide an account of the best current understanding of the genetics of cancer. The 24 contributions detail each of the known molecular mechanisms governing neoplastic transformation in the breast, prostate, lung, liver, colon, skin, and in the leukemias and lymphomas. They illuminate both recent developments and established concepts in epidemiology, molecular techniques, oncogenesis, and mutation mechanisms, as well as the chemical, viral, and physical mechanisms of cancer induction. They also consider the future directions of research, including the exploitation of molecular targets for developing anticancer drugs, gene therapy, and the appropriate use of molecular information in genetic counseling. Edited by Coleman (U. of North Carolina School of Medicine) and Tsongalis (Hartford Hospital).
