Retroviruses And Human Lymphoma/leukemia: Proceedings of the International Symposia of the Princess Takamatsu Cancer Research Fund

Product Description
In the Proceedings of this Symposium, papers are presented from leading laboratories worldwide studying human and animal retroviruses and their associated leukemias and other diseases, including AIDS. The volume provides an up-to-date review of the field and indicates possible future developments for cancer research in which multidisciplinary work, ranging from molecular biology to epidemiology, plays an important role. The book contains 31 papers which are grouped into the following subject areas: lectures; clinical aspects; epidemiology; virus transmission; characterization of viruses; infected cells; AIDS….

Halocynthiaxanthin and fucoxanthinol isolated from Halocynthia roretzi induce apoptosis in human leukemia, breast and colon cancer cells

Product Description
This digital document is a journal article from Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, Part C, published by Elsevier in . The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
The sea squirt Halocynthia roretzi metabolizes fucoxanthin, and subsequently accumulates its derived carotenoids with characteristic structures. In the present study, we isolated halocynthiaxanthin and fucoxanthinol as carotenoids having antiproliferative activity from H. roretzi. Halocynthiaxanthin and fucoxanthinol inhibited the growth of HL-60 human leukemia cells in a dose- and time-dependent… More >>

Human Cell Culture, Volume III: Cancer Cell Lines, Part 3: Leukemias and Lymphomas

Product Description
This book describes all human leukemia-lymphoma cell lines that have been established and that grow continuously under standardised in vitro conditions. These lines are derived from cells belonging to all the major hematopoietic cell lineages, i.e. B- and T-lymphocytes, natural killer cells, granulocytic cells and megakaryocytic cells. The clinical data, the culture conditions and the major phenotypic features of the cell lines are described with citations. This book is the first book describing human leukemia-lymphoma cell lines and will be of interest to scientists involved in the areas of hematology, oncology, immunology, molecular biology and cytogenetics. Cancer Cell Lines, Volumes 1–3: These 3 volumes p… More >>

Mouse Models of Human Blood Cancers: Basic Research and Pre-clinical Applications

Product Description
In this book, Dr. Li and his author team plan to emphasize why mouse models are useful in vivo systems for understanding disease mechanisms and developing therapeutic strategies in blood cancers. The authors do not intend to cover all types of blood cancers; instead, they will focus on some major ones such as leukemias and lymphomas. However, the authors will try to cover as much as they can the cancer types and point out that many blood cancers need to be studied in mouse disease models although they are still not available at present. A major focus in the book will be to show what we can or cannot learn from mouse disease models and to also show the critical contributions of mouse models in therapeutic drug d… More >>
