This book offers a summary and discussion of the advances of
inflammation and infection in various cancers. The authors cover
the classically known virus infections in cancer, novel roles of
other pathogens (e.g. bacteria and fungi), as well as biomarkers
for diagnosis and therapy. Further, the chapters highlight the
progress of immune therapy, stem cells and the role of the
microbiome in the pathophysiology of cancers. Readers will gain
insights into complex microbial communities, that inhabit most
external human surfaces and play a key role in health and disease.
Perturbations of host-microbe interactions often lead to altered
host responses that can promote cancer development. Thus, this book
highlights emerging roles of the microbiome in pathogenesis of
cancers and outcome of therapy. The focus is on mechanistic
concepts that underlie the complex relationships between host and
microbes. Approaches that can inhibit infection, suppress chronic
inflammation and reverse the dysbiosis are discussed, as a means
for restoring the balance between host and microbes. This
comprehensive work will be beneficial to researchers and students
interested in infectious diseases, microbiome, and cancer as well
as clinicians and general physiologists.
