This critical review volume explores the theme of ABC transporters in the context of basic cancer research and its role in drug-resistant tumors. The chapters provided complement basic research by including investigations from translational applications to clinical oncology. The development of resistance is a major obstacle in cancer chemotherapy and the field has been moving rapidly in terms of determining the mechanisms for blocking ABC transporter-mediated drug efflux by specific inhibitors and thereby overcoming multidrug resistance. The volume covers these issues in careful detail....

Es ist kennzeichnend, dass in den zuruckliegenden Jahren einerseits die Grenzen zwischen etablierten Disziplinen schwacher geworden sind und andererseits neue Forschungsgebiete entstehen. Die Wirksamkeit eines Medikamentes oder Giftes lasst sich nicht mehr ausschliesslich mit klas- schen pharmakologischen und toxikologischen Methoden verstehen. H- zugekommen sind die Molekularbiologie und die Biotechnologie sowie neue Forschungsgebiete wie Pharmakogenomik, Systembiologie und Bio- formatik. Auch die Stammzellbiologie wird in Zukunft eine wichtige Rolle fur die Medikamentenentwicklung spielen....

This book is the first of its kind in bringing together biodiversity, chemical ecology, phytochemistry and cancer therapy. The highlight of the book is an exhaustive compilation of scientific data on biodiversity of medicinal plants, biodiversity and metagenomics, chemical ecology of medicinal plants, chemical ecology of marine organisms, natural products from terrestrial microbial organisms with activity towards cancer cells, marine organisms, ethnopharmacology and phytotherapy, contribution of African flora in world fight against cancer, natural products derived from terrestrial plants with...
