MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
This volume highlights the expression of specific adhesion molecules within human cancer tissues. It details the expression signatures from published DNA microarray and immunohistochemistry studies. Coverage discusses the concept that the alteration of specific adhesion molecules influence the cancer migration ability and cancer damage responses, both features are essential for the survival of an invading tumor cell.
