Title: Metastatic diseases : novel approaches in diagnosis and therapeutic management / edited by Sandeep Arora ; co-edited by Tapan Behl, Sukhbir Singh, Neelam Sharma, Saurabh Gupta. Description: 1st edition. | Palm Bay, FL : Apple Academic Press, 2021. | Includes bibliographical references and index. | Summary: “Metastatic Diseases: Novel Approaches in Diagnosis and Therapeutic Management opens new horizons for exploring modern therapeutic entities and emerging targets for combating the deadly disease of cancer. The authors provide a review of cancer along with descriptions of its molecular level mechanisms and emphasize the role of promising new therapies, including herbal therapies that can be utilized for the treatment of metastatic diseases. The chapters look at specific approaches that have been researched and developed and that have almost reached the standardization stage. One of the approaches focuses on intracellular mechanisms, particularly proteins, and the pathway involving or being regulated by the proteins that limit the metastatic cellular growths. In particular phosphoprotein enriched astrocytes are being extensively tried. Also discussed is transerythretin protein, which has been significantly studied for its involvement in formation and transportation of proteins in metastatic diseases. Other receptors and approaches examined include CXCR4, autophagy-inhibiting drugs, phosphoprotein-enriched astrocytes, spatiotemporal genetic analysis, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and more. Also considered are advances in diagnostic systems like intra vital microscopy and molecular imaging, which further add to the arsenal in metastatic diseases, diagnosis, and management along with techniques like SAGA. These diagnostic methods and innovative methods of intervention by modification of epigenetic control of the immune system using immune checkpoint inhibitor s and phytopharmaceuticals provide newer and better dimensions to treatment of metastatic diseases. Key features: Discusses promising new therapies, including herbal therapies, for the treatment of metastatic diseases Explains the new areas that are widely explored by scientists, researchers, and scholars throughout the globe Explores new therapeutic molecules for cancer treatment The selection of appropriate treatment strategies presented in this volume provide deep insight into the adverse effects and contraindications that will be of immense benefit in the treatment and management of detrimental effects of this deadly disease. The volume will be beneficial for major laboratories working on cancer research and will also serve as a guide for researchers to explore new targets that can be beneficial for mankind”-- Provided by publisher.
