It begins with the basics of cancer, including the definition, types, etiology and molecular mechanisms involved, before discussing the fundamentals of diagnosis, treatment and associated problems as well as remedial measures. Since cancer is not a single disease, and the mechanisms of carcinogenesis are different for different cancers, it examines the genes and proteins involved in carcinogenesis, and signal transduction pathways for each individual cancer type. Further, the book reviews the latest research on phytochemicals for cancer treatment, highlighting their anti-cancer properties, sources, structure, active biomolecules and probable mechanisms of action, and describing their biochemical properties in the context of cancer prevention and treatment. 606 $aCancer$xResearch 606 $aOncology 606 $aPharmacology 606 $aGene expression 606 $aRadiology 606 $aCancer Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B11001 606 $aOncology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160 606 $aPharmacology/Toxicology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21007 606 $aGene Expression$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B12010 606 $aDiagnostic Radiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H29013 615 0$aCancer$xResearch. 615 0$aOncology. 615 0$aPharmacology. 615 0$aGene expression. 615 0$aRadiology. 615 14$aCancer Research. 615 24$aOncology. 615 24$aPharmacology/Toxicology. 615 24$aGene Expression. 615 24$aDiagnostic Radiology. 676 $a614.5999 700 $aRoy$b Madhumita$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0872807 702 $aDatta$b Amitava$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910350350003321 996 $aCancer Genetics and Therapeutics$91948501 997 $aUNINA
