Neuroblastoma: Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Interventions

Neuroblastoma comprehensively reviews the current concepts in molecular and histopathological mechanisms that influence growth of human malignant neuroblastoma and exciting therapeutic interventions. This book features a broad collection of chapters with contributions from leading investigators to demonstrate the important roles of histopathology, molecular mechanisms, genetics, epigenetics, microRNAs, proteomics, and metabolism in controlling growth and death in neuroblastoma. The recent developments in therapeutic interventions for neuroblastoma are also covered extensively, including chapters on surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. The target audience is advanced under graduate students, graduate students, medical students, postdoctoral fellows, and principal investigators with a requirement or an interest in current molecular concepts and therapeutic interventions in human malignant neuroblastoma.
