Cell Adhesion and Cytoskeletal Molecules in Metastasis / edited by Anne E Cress, Raymond B Nagle

Contributor(s): Cress, Anne E., editor literario | Nagle, Raymond B, editor literario
Material type: materialTypeLabelE-bookSeries: Publisher: Dordrecht : Springer International Publishing, 2006Description: 1 recurso en línea (XII, 196 p.).ISBN: 9781402051296.Subject: MetástasisDDC classification: 614.5999 Online resources: Acceso a este recurso digital (usuarios Universidad Europea de Madrid)Digital Resources Summary: In this volume, the expression of specific adhesion molecules within human cancer tissues are highlighted. The expression signatures from published DNA microarray and immunohistochemistry studies are detailed. The concept that the alteration of specific adhesion molecules influence the cancer migration ability and cancer damage responses is detailed in this volume; both features are essential for the survival of an invading tumor cell. Defining the minimal adhesion receptors preserved on cancer cells during tumor progression will define the metastatic adhesion signature. Understanding the metastatic adhesion signature will reveal vulnerabilities that could be exploited for the prevention and/or eradication of the invading cancer cell.
