Opis

This detailed volume explores numerous methods used in basic science laboratories to characterize cancer-related biomarkers, vital for better managing cancer burden, including cancer risk assessment, cancer diagnosis, determining cancer progression, and therapeutic response. From a radiography method to an examination of single-cell RNA-seq and computational analysis tools in cancer research, this book delves into many techniques that could provide valuable molecular information about the tumor and its microenvironment components. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. 

Authoritative and practical, Cancer Biomarkers: Methods and Protocols offers researchers multiple helpful ways to study cancer-associated molecular biomarkers.
