Description
Mitochondria and Cancer: From Basic Science to Clinical Applications – Understanding Pathogenesis, Therapy Resistance, and Disease Relapse is an essential reference for understanding the intricate relationship between mitochondria and cancer. The book explores cancer pathogenesis, therapy resistance, and disease relapse, all of which are significantly influenced by mitochondrial metabolism. Written for oncology researchers, it combines fundamental scientific knowledge with clinical relevance, providing recent findings and practical recommendations for cancer prevention and prognosis. This comprehensive guide covers the tumor microenvironment, cancer stem cells, microbiota, and resistance mechanisms while addressing novel topics like mitochondria-enhancing strategies and targeted therapies. With contributions from global experts, the book offers a well-rounded view of current research, making it a valuable resource for anyone in cancer biology or molecular biology fields.
