The basis for cell proliferation entails the control of key signalling and cell cycle regulators through transcriptional, translational, post-translational, genetic and epigenetic mechanisms. Many conceptual breakthroughs in cell regulation have derived from analyses of basic cell cycle mechanisms. This book presents research in the field.
A fundamental and groundbreaking reassessment of how we view and manage cancer When we think of the forces driving cancer, we don’t necessarily think of evolution. But evolution and cancer are closely linked because the historical processes that created life also created cancer. The Cheating Cell delves into this extraordinary relationship, and shows that by understanding cancer’s evolutionary origins, researchers can come up with more effective, revolutionary treatments. Athena Aktipis goes back billions of years to explore when unicellular forms became multicellular organisms. Within these bodies of cooperating cells, cheating ones arose, overusing resources and replicating out of cont...
Quando pensiamo alle forze che hanno dato vita al cancro non pensiamo all’evoluzione. In realtà le due cose sono strettamente connesse: il processo storico che ha creato la vita è il medesimo che crea il cancro. Questo saggio torna indietro a milioni di anni fa, al momento in cui le forme unicellulari diventarono organismi multicellulari, e fra quei corpi di cellule cooperanti emersero quelle che utilizzavano troppe risorse e si replicavano senza controllo. L’autrice mostra quanto l’evoluzione abbia spianato il campo per l’ubiquità del cancro, e perché continuerà a esistere finché esisterà la vita multicellulare. Tuttavia questo non significa che dobbiamo rinunciare a curarlo,...
