General Notes:
Preface -- Modern technologies -- MACC1, a novel player in solid cancer carcinogenesis -- The endocannabinoid system in carcinogenesis -- Stem cells in carcinogenesis -- Insulin pathways and carcinogenesis -- Role of Triglyceride Lipases in Tumor Metabolism -- mTOR signalling in carcinogenesis -- Nuclear Factor Kappa B -- Gliomas -- Non-glial brain tumors -- Ocular neoplasms -- Thyroid carcinogenesis -- Head and Neck including Oral cavity, Larynx, Pharynx -- Oesophagus -- Lung Carcinogenesis -- Progression of lung cancer: role of hypoxia and the metabolic tumor microenvironment.
Divided into two volumes the work offers a so far unmatched broad and at the same time deep knowledge on molecular and cellular mechanisms of carcinogenesis and offers comprehensive insight into clinical, therapeutic and technological aspects. This 1st Volume presents tumor entities of the ocular system, the thyroid organ, the oesophagus, gliomas, non-glial brain tumors, head and neck as well as lung cancer. In addition it also discusses in-depth potential novel molecular players and the role of stem cells as well as the endocannabinoid system in carcinogenesis, it furthermore explains tumor metabolism components and signaling pathways. Each of the chapters discusses potential therapeutic strategies and novel drug targets. The book addresses basic scientists and medical researchers interested in translational cancer research.

1. Breast Carcinogenesis -- 2. Non-melanoma skin cancer, Actinic keratosis and squamous cell cancer -- 3. Molecular Pathogenesis of Soft Tissue Tumours -- 4. Colorectal carcinogenesis -- 5. Pancreatic Carcinogenesis -- 6. Hepatocellular carcinogenesis -- 7. Neuroendocrine tumorigenesis -- 8. Molecular etiopathogenesis of extranodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue -- 9. Urologic neoplasms including Kidney and Urinary Bladder -- 10. Molecular Carcinogenesis of Urinary Bladder Cancer -- 11. Gynecologic Carcinogenesis -- 12. CTCs and ctDNA -- 13. Computational Pathology -- 14.

Together with Volume 1, this book provides an inclusive overview of the molecular and cellular mechanisms of carcinogenesis and offers comprehensive insights into related clinical and therapeutic aspects. This second volume complements the first by presenting and concisely explaining the carcinogenesis of various tumor entities such as non-melanoma skin cancers, bone and soft tissue tumors, pancreatic cancers, hepatocellular cancer and neuroendocrine tumors. As in volume one, each chapter illuminates the similarities and dissimilarities of changed signaling pathways in the different organ systems and depicts potential therapeutic strategies. The focus of volume two lies on the presentation of modern molecular biological techniques for diagnosis, as well as strategies for biomarker identification and validation. Furthermore, it discusses potential therapeutic targets and individualized treatment strategies, offering a valuable resource for all basic scientists and medical researchers interested in translational cancer research.
