Cancer is one of the most common causes of death and diseases in human populations, and 15%-25% of human cancers in worldwide are considered to result from chronic infection by pathogens. Most oncology textbooks address genetic mutation, but not infectious agents such as viruses, bacteria and parasites. As such this book stimulates further research in the new area between cancers and chronic infection, and discusses the epidemiology and molecular biology of infectious causes of cancers. It also explores the prevention and treatment of infection-related cancers, and brings pathogenic research to the forefront in the never-ending endeavor to understand how pathogens maneuver and negotiate in a complex environment, including the micro/macro- environment of the human host. Further, it highlights the urgent need for a concerted program to develop vaccines and other diagnosis and interventions that will eventually help prevent and treat infectious cancers, and decrease their burden on human populations. It offers graduate students and researchers a comprehensive overview of the infectious causes of cancers. 410 0$aAdvances in Experimental Medicine and Biology,$x0065-2598 ;$v1018 606 $aCancer research 606 $aMedical microbiology 606 $aVirology 606 $aParasitology 606 $aCancer Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B11001 606 $aMedical Microbiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B16003 606 $aVirology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B22003 606 $aParasitology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B19002 615 0$aCancer research. 615 0$aMedical microbiology. 615 0$aVirology. 615 0$aParasitology. 615 14$aCancer Research. 615 24$aMedical Microbiology. 615 24$aVirology. 615 24$aParasitology. 676 $a616.99401 702 $aCai$b Qiliang$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aYuan$b Zhenghong$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aLan$b Ke$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253953303321 996 $aInfectious Agents Associated Cancers: Epidemiology and Molecular Biology$92110416 997 $aUNINA
