Tindall Donald J. (ed.) Prostate Cancer: Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Genetics

Springer, 2013. — 517 p. — (Protein Reviews 16) — ISBN: 978-1-4614-6827-1Prostate Cancer provides an up-to-date review of the biochemistry, molecular biology, and genetic changes in prostate cells that are the driving forces in the initiation and progression of cancer. It includes an overview by experts in the field of cell-cell interactions, including stem cells, reactive Stromal cells and membrane lipid rafts that are instrumental in the initiation and progression of prostate cancer.Cell Biology
