Beskrivning

Caspases as Molecular Targets for Cancer Therapy discusses the recent developments on targeted therapies for cancer using caspases. It describes the selection of specific caspases for cancer therapy with the current standard of care and highlights numerous assay techniques for caspase activities.

This book discusses topics such as mutations within apoptosis gene, inflammatory caspases, tumor suppression, and the different caspase types and their role in anticancer activity. In addition, it discusses caspase activity assay procedure and future perspectives.

It is a valuable resource for researchers, students, and members of biomedical and medical fields who want to learn more about novel anticancer targeted therapies.

Discusses thoroughly caspases, their mechanism of action, and mutations responsible for the development of cancer.
Presents updated literature of synthetic compounds for the development of caspase-mediated new anticancer drugs.
Encompasses comprehensive compilation of recently introduced anticancer drugs in the market, the health outcomes, and pharmacoeconomics.
