Part I Molecular bases for stem and cancer cells proliferation -- An introduction to proliferation and migration of stem cells and cancer -- the role of cell adhesions, cell junctions and extracellular matrix in normal development and carcinogenesis -- The embryonic rest hypothesis of cancer development: 150 years later -- Are calcium channels more important than calcium influx for cell proliferation ?- Role of calcium signaling in stem cells and cancer cells proliferation --

Abstract:

The book will discuss the molecular mechanisms of cancer diseases, stem cell proliferation and transformation into cancer cells beyond the physiological processes that occur in normal stem cell biology. Some of the key oncogenic events in cancer and their signaling pathways that regulate cell division cycle progression will be described considering prospects for using such knowledge in advanced cancer therapy. Each chapter shall provide an invaluable resource for information on the most current advances in the field, with discussion of controversial issues and areas of emerging importance.
