SIGNALING PATHWAYS AND MOLECULAR MEDIATORS IN M...

This work presents the most advanced discoveries from translational research laboratories
directly involved in identifying molecules and signalling pathways that play an instrumental
role in metastasis. In contrast to other works  conventionally focused on a single type of
tumour  the various chapters in this book provide a broad perspective of the similarities and
discrepancies among the dissemination of several solid malignancies. Through recurrent and
overlapping references to molecular mechanisms and mediators  the readers will gain knowledge
of the common ground in metastasis from a single source. Finally  an introductory chapter
provides a clinical perspective of the problems presented by metastatic tumours for diagnosis
and treatment. The work presented here is directed to researchers in tumour biology with a
developing interest in metastatic dissemination as well as medical and graduate students
seeking to expand and integrate the notions acquired in basic cancer biology and oncology
courses.
