Cancer Prevention. Dietary Factors and Pharmacology

Cancer Prevention. Dietary Factors and Pharmacology. Edited by A.M. Bode, Z. Dong. 2014, pp. 288, Eur 101.64, ISBN: 978-1-4614-9226-9. Springer Science + Business Media, New York, NY, USA.

Focused on the discovery of precise molecular targets for the development of the cancer preventive agents, this volume provides researchers and non-researchers with practical methodologies for developing and validating small molecule and phytochemical-derived drug discovery and mechanisms by which these compounds can modulate distinct target proteins involved in oncogenic signaling. This volume focuses on cancer prevention research yet also provides an introduction of cancer prevention research methods to researchers outside the field. Chapters deal with a critical discussion of both laboratory and clinical topics, with each chapter containing both a discursive section along with a detailed methods section.
