While the incidence rate of neuroendocrine tumours has been increasing, the survival rate has not. Therefore, there is a great need for state-of-the-art research and new treatment protocols. The chapters in this book contribute to that debate and will be required reading for both researchers and healthcare practitioners, as it offers both overviews of the condition and specialized contributions. Topics covered include the association between chronic inflammation and gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours, or GEP-NETs. GEP-NETs are also addressed in a chapter on their circulating markers, which can help in diagnosing this hard to detect condition. One chapter covers the role of Chromogranin A, while another addresses the diagnosis and management of neuroendocrine carcinomas in cases where the primary site is unknown.

Dieses Buch informiert Ärzte und in Heilberufen Tätige in schlagwortartigen Sätzen und zahlreichen übersichtlichen Tabellen über die biochemischen, molekularbiologischen und physiologischen Hintergründe der malignen Tumorerkrankungen und über die Risikofaktoren, Ausbreitungswege, diagnostische Verfahren und Therapiemöglichkeiten für die unterschiedlichen Tumorarten. Umfassend dargestellt werden die physiologischen, biochemischen und molekularbiologischen Grundlagen- der zellulären Signalwege, der Zellvermehrung, der Reparatur von Zellschäden sowie des kontrollierten Zelltodes- der Rolle von aktivierten Onkogenen und inaktivierten Tumorsuppressoren bei der Entstehung von Tumoren- des Einflusses von Viren, Umweltgiften, Ernährungs- und Konsumgewohnheiten, Entzündungen und körperlichen Belastungen- des Wachstums von Tumoren und ihrer Metastasierung- der Rolle der Blutversorgung von Tumoren- der Wachstumskontrolle von Tumoren durch das körpereigene immunologische Abwehrsystem und- der unterschiedlichen Möglichkeiten der Tumortherapie. Für jeden einzelnen Tumortyp erfolgt eine Beschreibung der Risikofaktoren, der beteiligten Onkogene und mutierten Tumorsuppressoren, der Entwicklungsstadien, Klassifikationen, diagnostischen Verfahren und der aktuellen therapeutische Strategien. This book discusses the biochemical, biomolecular, and physiological causes of malignant tumors as well as their risk factors, propagation, diagnostics, and treatment. Written concisely and accompanied by illustrative tables, it gives doctors and other healthcare professionals comprehensive information.For each type of tumor, the book describes risk factors, oncogenes, mutated tumor suppressor genes, developmental stages, classifications, diagnostic procedures, and current therapies.

Plus que jamais, les oncologues ont besoin de l'apport de la biologie, d'abord pour comprendre les cancers, mais surtout pour les traiter. Plus de 600 essais thérapeutiques sont en cours en 2010 pour évaluer les thérapies ciblées. Afin de s'y retrouver dans le dédale des voies de signalisation, dans la profusion des récepteurs et des signaux concourant à l'oncogenèse, le professeur Jacques Robert propose une vision d'ensemble, certes simplifiée et didactique, mais assez complète, des voies de transmission de l'information entre les cellules et à l'intérieur des cellules. Les voies de signalisa

Oral cancer is a common disease with a high incidence of morbidity and mortality. Despite technological advancements in diagnosis and treatment, the five-year survival rate is low. Researchers worldwide are attempting to identify new and novel methods for early diagnosis and better treatment of oral cancer to improve survival rate and quality of life post recovery. This book examines current concepts in oral cancer and emphasizes future perspectives for diagnosis and treatment of disease for better clinical outcomes and patient care.
