Research on oncogenic viruses and related human cancers has
advanced rapidly in the past decade. Most articles, however, focus
on a specific oncogenic virus and cancer. There is consequently a
need for a comprehensive, up-to-date monograph that offers broad
and integrated knowledge. Viruses and Human Cancer - From Basic
Science to Clinical Prevention is designed to meet this need by
providing an advanced overview on the basic and clinical aspects of
oncogenic viruses and the human cancers that they cause. Virology,
virus-induced inflammation and tissue injuries, oncogenic
mechanisms, epidemiology, and current and emerging preventive and
therapeutic strategies are all discussed in detail. In addition,
the book covers the individual aspects of seven oncogenic viruses,
i.e., hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, human papilloma virus,
Epstein-Barr virus, human T-cell lymphotropic virus, Kaposi
sarcoma-associated herpes virus, and Merkel cell polyomavirus, and
the related human cancers.
Although it is one of the most-widely studied viruses, many
mysteries still remain about HIV. Covering the latest advances and
challenges associated with clinical application of new antiviral
drugs and vaccines, this revised edition is a companion to Murad:
"HIV-1: Molecular Biology and Pathogenesis, 2E." Leading
investigators in HIV research present a timely picture of the
molecular mechanisms which guide HIV-1 expression and replication
and provide the most current clinical strategies for combating this
virus.
* The latest developments in HIV-vaccine research
* New concepts in the discovery and design of novel anti-HIV drugs
