DIABETES AND CANCER GEBUNDEN

The interdisciplinary work revealing varied roles in biological processes of chronic diseases
has led to a new field of research concerning common molecular and clinical features of chronic
diseases. Epidemiological literature suggests an association between the history of metabolic
syndrome diabetes mellitus type 2 and the risk of developing a variety of cancers. This book 
at the forefront of experimental and clinical research  is the first to highlight the common
molecular links between these two diseases. These tight links indicate a complex
interdependency between both diseases on a cellular and hormonal basis  which is influenced by
a variety of aspects (e.g. nutritional  social and neuro-immunological factors). Special
attention has been given to the fundamental role of the switch from oxidative phosphorylation
to glycolysis of cancer cells - the Warburg effect. Offering insights into the
interdisciplinary approaches of tomorrow  this publication will encourage endocrinologists 
oncologists  diabetologists  general practitioners  diabetic nurses and students of life
sciences working separately on various aspects of diabetes and cancer to come together and
combine therapies and strategies.
