Advances In Dna Repair In Cancer Therapy (Cancer Drug Discovery And Development)

?A comprehensive review of the recent developments in DNA repair research that have potential for translational applications. The book explains in detail the various biological mechanisms by which cancer cells can circumvent anticancer therapy and limits its usefulness in patients. They also review the impact of such novel inhibitors of DNA repair mechanisms as methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase. Also examined are inhibitors of other DNA repair enzymes such as PARP and DNA-PK. The book captures-for both cancer researchers and oncologists dealing with hallmark "relapse" or "drug resistance" phenomena on a daily basis-the many exciting new uses of DNA repair inhibitors, either alone or in combination with anticancer therapies.? 9781489993083 1489993088 0 Medical NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=13r7rQEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
