Therapeutic Application of Nitric Oxide in Cancer and Inflammatory Disorders (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Therapeutic Application of Nitric Oxide in Cancer and Inflammatory Disorders presents updated reviews on the chemistry, signaling, pre-clinical and clinical activities on the role of nitric oxide donors/inhibitors used alone and in combination with other therapeutic agents for the treatment of a variety of diseases. This book examines various studies related to the application of novel therapeutic NO (donors/inhibitors) compounds in the treatment of various cancers. These studies have been shown to exert significant therapeutic activities against various cancers and various inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, allergies, and asthma, where no current effective therapies exist. Pathologies based on functional and structural vascular alterations are also taken into consideration. Edited and written by internationally renowned experts in the field of novel therapeutics for cancer, this book is a valuable source for cancer researchers, medical scientists, clinicians, clinical pharmacologists, and graduate students. - Provides readers with a clear overview of the recent findings and references as well as summaries, significant molecular pathways, and conclusions - Discusses new ideas proposed and makes suggestions for further investigations that will advance the field - Presents introductory and summary information on the contributions of the field, all the findings of the studies discussed, and projects future goals for research

Autor

Dr. Morbidelli's experience is within the molecular and biochemical pharmacology of angiogenesis and microcirculation and its biological application in diseases and cancer. Through of a plethora of in vitro and in vivo models, she has contributed to the characterization of the pro- and antiangiogenic activities of designed synthetic molecules and natural products and their potential applications in angiogenesis-dependent diseases of the cardiovascular system, ocular disorders, neurovascular diseases and cancer. She co-organized with Professor Bonavida the Fourth International Workshop on "Nitric Oxide in Cancer? held in Sevilla in March 13-14, 2015. The meeting addressed different topics such as NO, mutagenesis, carcinogenesis, tumor promotion and tumor growth; NO regulation of cell death pathways; NO and proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition; Regulation of immune response by NO; Antitumoral activity of NO-based releasing strategies: pre-clinical studies; Antitumoral

activity of NO-based releasing strategies: clinical trials.
Dr Bonavida has vast expertise and various reported publications in the field of tumor cell sensitization to chemotherapy (a total of greater than 500 publications) and in particular the novel role of Nitric Oxide (NO) donors in chemo-sensitization and reversal of drug resistance. In addition, he was the first scientist to co-organize an international meeting on the topic (First International Workshop on NO and Cancer, 2005).
