Index. 330 $aThe existence of ?cancer stem cells? (CSCs) has been a topic of heated debate for the last few years within the field of cancer biology. Their continuous characterization in a variety of solid tumors has lead to an abundance of evidence supporting their existence.  CSCs are believed to be responsible for resistance against conventional treatment regimes of chemotherapy and radiation, ultimately, leading to metastasis and patient demise. To help aid clinicians, pharmaceutical companies and academic labs investigating how to better kill these highly aggressive cells we have summarized the DNA repair mechanism(s) and their role in the maintenance and regulation of both normal and cancer stem cells. Our book represents a comprehensive investigation into the highly effective DNA repair mechanisms of CSCs and what we need to understand in order to develop more advanced therapies to eradicate them from patients. Currently, there are no other published works entirely on DNA repair and Cancer Stem Cells. In addition, our book provides a comprehensive overview of CSC isolation and characterization from a variety of solid tumor types. . 606 $aMedicine 606 $aMolecular biology 606 $aCancer research 606 $aStem cells 606 $aBiomedicine, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B0000X 606 $aMolecular Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B1700X 606 $aCancer Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B11001 606 $aStem Cells$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16010 615 0$aMedicine. 615 0$aMolecular biology. 615 0$aCancer research. 615 0$aStem cells. 615 14$aBiomedicine, general. 615 24$aMolecular Medicine. 615 24$aCancer Research. 615 24$aStem Cells. 676 $a616.99 676 $a616.99/4071 702 $aMathews$b Lesley A$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCabarcas$b Stephanie M$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHurt$b Elain$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437607903321 996 $aDNA Repair of Cancer Stem Cells$92531832 997 $aUNINA
