Opis

This third edition provides new and updated chapters on gene therapeutic strategies of cancer. Chapters guide readers through suicide and oncolytic gene therapy, gene replacement and gene suppression therapy, vector development and refinement, immunogene therapy, TCR and CAR engineering, tumor vaccination using DNA or RNA vaccines, and antitumoral immune stimulation at different levels. Written in the format of the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, each chapter includes an introduction to the topic, lists necessary materials and reagents, includes tips on troubleshooting and known pitfalls, and step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Gene Therapy of Cancer: Methods and Protocols, Third Edition aims to be a useful and practical guide to new researchers and experts looking to expand their knowledge.
