Starving Cancer Cells: Evidence-Based Strategies to Slow Cancer
Progression - A Selection of Readings for Health Services Providers
presents an edited and annotated collection of recent medical
journal publications and abstracts illustrating new approaches to
treatment derived from the metabolic theory of cancer. It intends
to shed an early light on a relatively new approach to our
understanding of the cancer cell idiosyncratic metabolic
dysfunction, and on evidence-based new treatment strategies derived
from that understanding. The book discusses topics such as tumor
starvation by L-arginine deprivation; L-canavanine depriving tumors
of L-arginine in pancreatic, multiple myeloma and breast cancer;
glucose deprivation and intermittent fasting; glutamine uptake in
cancer; the relation of oxygen-starved cancer cells with aspartate;
and reducing tolerance of tumor cells to nutrition starvation. The
content is presented in a contextualized and practical way in order
to facilitate the transition from bench to bedside. This is a
valuable resource for practitioners, oncologists and other members
of healthcare chain who are interested in learning more about the
most recent tumor cell starvation strategies and how they can
improve overall treatment outcome.
