Expert Views on HPV Infection
This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Expert Views on HPV Infection" that was published in Viruses
Human Papillomaviruses and Polyomaviruses in Skin Cancer
Nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC), more recently defined as keratinocyte carcinoma (KC), is the most frequent malignant tumor among Caucasians. This book deals with widely distributed cutaneous papillomaviruses and polyomaviruses, which are able to establish life-long persistent infections. They are frequently clinically inapparent in the general population, but can cause skin cancer in immunocompromised hosts or in the aging skin undergoing immunosenescence, thereby leading to major medical problems. The incidence of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) in immunosuppressed organ transplant recipients is 60-250 times higher than that observed in the general population, which is highly sugge...
Expert Views on HPV Infection
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections cause approximately 5% of all human cancers. While there are efficacious prophylactic vaccines that prevent infections with the most common cancer-associated HPVs, these vaccines are not widely available in low-resource settings and in many countries, including the US, HPV vaccination rates have remained disappointingly low. Moreover, vaccination does not modify existing HPV infections and the incidence of HPV-associated anal and oropharyngeal cancers has steadily increased and is projected to overtake the caseload of cervical cancer in the next two years. Hence, infections with cancer-associated HPVs will remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality, worldwide. This book provides state-of-the-art summaries and expert viewpoints on unresolved, controversial or emerging topics related to the natural history, evolution, biology, and disease association of papillomavirus infection. The individual chapters cover a wide range of thought provoking topics.
Viruses and Human Cancer
Viruses and Human Cancer provides a comprehensive review of the seven currently known human tumor viruses and their associated cancers with an emphasis on epidemiology, clinicopathologic features, and pathogenesis. Chapters are written by internationally recognized experts and all are generously illustrated with tables, diagrams and photographic images. Viruses and Human Cancer is designed to serve as a concise review of the field of human tumor virology for pathologists, oncologists and infectious disease specialists. It will also be of great value to practicing physicians, residents and clinical fellows in these specialties.
Clinical Applications of TGF-Beta
TGF-beta, originally identified as a transforming growth factor with similar properties, is now known to exist as a family of factors with similar properties. These factors promote cell proliferation in some tissue types or conditions and induce cell differentiation in others. Features the latest information on the TGF-beta family and its receptors. Describes correlations between TGF-beta and certain cancers, including glioblastomas. Also contains reports of preliminary investigations of clinical applications for TGF-beta in many diseases, including leukemia and its use to accelerate wound healing.
