  • Minimal Residual Disease in Melanoma

    Biology, Detection and Clinical Relevance

    Edited by U. Reinhold, W. Tilgen ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)
    Knowledge about diagnostic procedures in melanoma has in creased rapidly within the past few years. Single tumor cells have been identified in normal tissue such as sentinel lymph nodes, as well as in bone marrow, peripheral blood, and other bodily fluids and cells, by molecular technologies. The introduction of polymerase chain reaction-based methods can be regarded as a prototype of this ... Read more

  • Chemosensitivity Testing in Oncology

    Edited by Uwe Reinhold, Wolfgang Tilgen ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)
    Over the past 50 years many in vitro and in vivo drug response assay systems have been developed to determine the potential - tivity of chemotherapy agents. The idea was to eliminate ineffective agents and unnecessary toxic treatment while selecting drugs active in vitro or in the mouse model that might increase the probability of response in the patient. None of these test models, however, ... Read more

  • Cancer as a Metabolic Disease

    On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer

    The book addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the "hallmarks of cancer" and thus his theory was discredited. This book aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that ... Read more

  • Hyaluronan in Cancer Biology

    Edited by Robert Stern ...
    Hyaluronan biology is being recognized as an important regulator of cancer progression. Paradoxically, both hyaluronan (HA) and hyaluronidases, the enzymes that eliminate HA, have also been correlated with cancer progression. Hyaluronan, a long-chain polymer of the extracellular matrix, opens up tissue spaces through which cancer cells move and metastasize. It also confers motility upon cells ... Read more
