Written by internationally recognized leaders in Heparanase biology, the book’s eight chapters offer an opportunity for scientists, clinicians and advanced students in cell biology, tumor biology and oncology to obtain a comprehensive understanding of Heparanase’s multifaceted activities in cancer, inflammation, diabetes and other diseases, as well as its related clinical applications. Proteases and their involvement in cancer progression have been well addressed and documented; however, the emerging premise presented within this book is that Heparanase is a master regulator of aggressive cancer phenotypes and crosstalk with the tumor microenvironment. This endoglycosidase contributes to...
Cancer is a group of different diseases (over 100) characterised by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. Cancer can arise in many sites and behave differently depending on its organ of origin. If a cancer spreads (metastasizes), the new tumour bears the same name as the original (primary) tumour. Significant progress has been made in recent years in the battle against cancer and in understanding its underlying biological mechanisms. This research progress has resulted in many experimental treatments and cures which establish hope for wide-spread cures. This book brings together important research from around the world in this frontal field.
Each issue is packed with extensive news about important cancer related science, policy, politics and people. Plus, there are editorials and reviews by experts in the field, book reviews, and commentary on timely topics.

The AACR Annual Meeting is a must-attend event for cancer researchers and the broader cancer community. This year's theme, "Delivering Cures Through Cancer Science," reinforces the inextricable link between research and advances in patient care. The theme will be evident throughout the meeting as the latest, most exciting discoveries are presented in every area of cancer research. There will be a number of presentations that include exciting new data from cutting-edge clinical trials as well as companion presentations that spotlight the science behind the trials and implications for delivering improved care to patients. This book contains abstracts 2697-5293 presented on April 19-20, 2016, at the AACR Annual Meeting.
Foreword from the Field Chief Editor, Giuseppe Giaccone Once again Frontiers in Oncology has started the year on a positive note, breaking previous records for submissions and publications, as well as the number of Research Topic article collections posted. The journal continues to grow in size, adding an 18th section focusing on Cancer Metabolism, led by Michael Lisanti and Ubaldo Martinez-Outschoorn, and has brought on a total of five new Chief Editors. Here, introducing Frontiers in Oncology: Quarterly Highlights, we feature a collection of carefully selected articles published during the first quarter of 2019 across the different sections. With a record number of papers to choose from, t...
In recent decades, evidence has accumulated implicating heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) in tumor initiation and progression. Ubiquitously present at the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix, HSPGs are composed of a protein core with covalently bound heparan sulfate (HS) chains. They present high structural complexity and heterogeneity provided by the coordinated action of several biosynthetic and HS modifying enzymes in a tissue - and cell type-specific manner. The absence of HS is incompatible with life, highlighting the critical role of HS and HSPGs in key physiological processes including cell adhesion, migration, invasion as well as cell signaling. The essential contributio...
