Chemoresistance in Glioblastoma: Understanding and Management gives clear insights into the detailed characteristic aspects of glioblastoma disease and the different therapeutic targets that are employed in reducing resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. The book delves deep into the root causes of multidrug resistance and the quest for novel molecular targets among growth factors, receptors, signal transduction proteins, microRNAs, transcription factors, proto-oncogenes, and tumor suppressor genes. In addition, it gives insights on the pathological and molecular features of glioblastoma and the role of cancer stem cells in the resistance to chemo and immunotherapy.
While designed as a comprehensive guide, the book also serves as a valuable reference for professionals seeking to deepen their understanding, refine their skills, and explore new avenues within chemoresistance.
