Genes and Environment in Cancer
ISBN: 9783642468728 / Angielski / Miękka / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Different cancer types can result from a multiplicity of genetic and environmental factors. In recent years a number of genes have been identified as strong determinants for particular forms of cancer (particularly colon and breast cancer). The incomplete penetrance often evinced by the mutations of these genes has raised the possibility that additional endogenous or exogenous determinants contribute to cancer development or suppression. The major aim of this book is to present an integrated view of the various environmental, epidemiological and genetic determinants that contribute to a...

Noch vor zehn Jahren wurde ein Humangenetiker, der auf die Bedeutung genetischer Faktoren bei der Entstehung von Geisteskrankheiten hinwies, in Psychiater- und Psychologenkreisen nicht selten als ein Fossil aus iiberwunden geglaubter Vorzeit angesehen. Inzwischen haben die eindrucksvollen Erfolge der Molekulargenetik zu einer vollig geanderten Einschatzung gefiihrt. Die Molekulargenetik stellt Methoden zur Verfiigung, die zur Analyse genetischer Krankheiten des Menschen, vermutlich auch von Geisteskrankheiten, angewandt werden konnen. Bereits ein Drittel der bisher bekannten menschlichen Gene...

Familial Cancer Control
ISBN: 9783642775840 / Angielski / Miękka / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The European School of Oncology came into existence to respond to a need for informa tion, education and training in the field of the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. There are two main reasons why such an initiative was considered necessary. Firstly, the teaching of oncology requires a rigorously multidisciplinary approach which is difficult for the Univer sities to put into practice since their system is mainly disciplinary orientated. Secondly, the rate of technological development that impinges on the diagnosis and treatment of cancer has been so rapid that it is not an easy task for...

Gene Quantification
ISBN: 9781461286820 / Angielski / Miękka / 375 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Geneticists and molecular biologists have been interested in quantifying genes and their products for many years and for various reasons (Bishop, 1974). Early molecular methods were based on molecular hybridization, and were devised shortly after Marmur and Doty (1961) first showed that denaturation of the double helix could be reversed - that the process of molecular reassociation was exquisitely sequence dependent. Gillespie and Spiegelman (1965) developed a way of using the method to titrate the number of copies of a probe within a target sequence in which the target sequence was fixed to...

Ovarian carcinoma continues to be responsible for more deaths than all other gynecologic malignancies combined, due to a continued inability to achieve detection of early (rather than advanced) stage disease and the lack of effective tumor-specific therapeutics. Ovarian carcinogenesis, invasion, and metastatic dissemination require a complex cascade of interrelated genetic, molecular, and biochemical events that regulate the neoplastic transition of normal ovarian surface epithelium. This updated second edition includes exciting new advances in ovarian cancer detection and...

ISBN: 9789400758414 / Angielski / Twarda / 588 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The combination of molecular biology, engineering and bioinformatics has revolutionized our understanding of cancer revealing a tight correlation of the molecular characteristics of the primary tumor in terms of gene expression, structural alterations of the genome, epigenetics and mutations with its propensity to metastasize and to respond to therapy. It is not just one or a few genes, it is the complex alteration of the genome that determines cancer development and progression. Future management of cancer patients will therefore rely on thorough molecular analyses of each single case....
