Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Melanoma (Hardcover, 2012): Michael J. Murphy Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Melanoma (Hardcover, 2012)
Michael J. Murphy
R5,838 Discovery Miles 58 380 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book describes both the technologies used in the discovery of melanoma biomarkers and the clinical application of these biomarkers for diagnosis and staging of disease, determination of prognosis, treatment planning, monitoring of response to therapy, identification of novel therapeutic targets and drug development. A broad range of biomarkers (DNA/chromosomal, mRNA, microRNA, mitochondrial DNA, epigenetic and protein) is outlined. As therapies for melanoma become increasingly more target specific, the identification, validation and use of biomarkers will invariably play a greater role in the management of patients with this disease. Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Melanoma is an essential resource for oncologists, dermatologists, dermatopathologists, general pathologists with an interest in melanoma, and melanoma researchers.

Atlas of Breast Pathology (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1984): R. R. Millis Atlas of Breast Pathology (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1984)
R. R. Millis
R1,546 Discovery Miles 15 460 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The aim of this atlas is to illustrate the wide range of histological appearances which can be seen in brea. st biopsies and mastectomy specimens. An attempt has been made to include photomicrographs showing the more usual appearances as well as some of the unusual patterns encountered in most common lesions of the breast. In addition some of the rarer forms of mammary pathology have been illustrated, sometimes extensively, where this was considered important in the differential diagnosis and where photomicrographs of good quality were available. Some of the low power photomicro graphs lack detail but have been retained as they illustrate Important microanatomical or architectural patterns. The majority of the photomicrographs are of histological preparations stained with haematoxylin and eosin, buta few special stains have been used to illustrate certain specific features. Only occasional photographs of gross specimens have been included. This is notto belittle the importance of gross appearances: indeed micro scopic examination of any tissue should always be complemented by careful naked-eye examination. A few mammographic pictures have also been included to illustrate characteristic patterns. There are no photo micrographs of cytological preparations as these were considered outside the scope of this book and excellent atlases of mammary cytology already exist. It is hoped thatthisatlaswill prove useful to surgical pathologists and others interested in the histological appearances of the breast. It is not intended as a comprehensive study of breast diseases, and details of clinical presentation and treatment have only been mentioned briefly."

The evolution of the classification of neoplasms of the urinary passages has changed greatly since Friedman and Ash published the first series AFIP fascicle on the urinary bladder in 1959. In their classification, there were four variants of urothelial neoplasia, some adenomas, adenocarcinoma, and smooth muscle and lymphoid tumors. Today the classification continues to accrue entities based upon morphology, immunophenotype, and compelling clinical associations. The classification of renal cell carcinomas has undergone a profound transformation, with the emergence of many new entities, often with characteristic genetic alterations, with significant implications for prognosis and treatment. This comprehensive, detailed, and highly illustrated fascicle is a remarkable resource to surgical pathologists and other specialists who treat patients with tumors of these sites.

Osteoimmunology - Interactions of the Immune and skeletal systems II (Hardcover, 2010 ed.): Yongwon Choi Osteoimmunology - Interactions of the Immune and skeletal systems II (Hardcover, 2010 ed.)
Yongwon Choi
R4,475 Discovery Miles 44 750 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

It has only recently been appreciated that the immune and skeletal systems have major interactions. It is now well documented that osteoclasts, which are important cellular mediators of skeletal homeostasis, are derived from hematopoietic precursors that also give rise to immune cells. In addition, numerous cytokines that were first shown to regulate immune cell function have also been demonstrated to regulate bone cells and influence skeletal health. Conversely, products of bone cells appear critical for the engraftment of marrow in bone, the normal development of the hematopoietic and immune systems and provide niche for long-term memory B and T cells.

In the past scientists involved in immune and bone cell investigations have rarely interacted in a significant way as these disciplines have developed independently and, for the most part, remain separate. The conference will bring together leading international scientists from both fields to interact so that new collaboration can develop and more rapid progress in understanding the relationships between these fields can be achieved. Short talks will be selected from abstracts from the international community. This conference will have a format to provide an environment of maximum interaction and interchange through lectures, posters, and open discussion.

In Situ Molecular Pathology and Co-expression Analyses (Paperback, 2nd edition): Gerard J. Nuovo In Situ Molecular Pathology and Co-expression Analyses (Paperback, 2nd edition)
Gerard J. Nuovo
R3,516 Discovery Miles 35 160 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Major advancements in the field of in situ molecular pathology have occurred since publication of the first edition. In Situ Molecular Pathology and Co-expression Analyses, Second Edition, continues to teach both the molecular basis for the improvements and the actual protocols. This is the unique feature that separates it from the pack of other "cook-book" type approaches. The fields of in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry have expanded rapidly where computer-based analyses systems have greatly expanded the power of these methods. Further, knowledge of the marked improvements in the reagents themselves since the first edition can make the difference of excellent versus misleading data. The automated platforms require that researchers and diagnostic biomedical investigators have a good understanding of the basics of in situ based tests, protocols, and biochemistry for troubleshooting in order to maximize the use of these platforms. This second edition focuses attention on straightforward protocols used to simultaneously detect two or more proteins/nucleic acids within intact tissue by doing co-expression analyses. Practicing molecular pathologists, diagnostic pathologists, laboratory directors, and toxicologists, as well as clinicians and researchers in training, will benefit from this clear presentation of protocols and theoretical framework. Data derived from in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry.
