| Summary: | This book, 'Cancer Epigenetics and Nanomedicine: Targeting the Right Player,' edited by Prashant Kesharwani and Chitra Thakur, explores the complex interplay between cancer epigenetics and nanotechnology in developing targeted cancer therapies. It delves into the mechanisms of cancer, including tumor metabolism, the role of one-carbon amino acids, and environmental causes of cancer. The book underscores the significance of epigenetic modifications in cancer progression and treatment, discussing DNA methylation, histone modifications, and chromatin remodeling as pivotal factors in cancer biology. Additionally, it highlights the potential of nanomedicine in delivering targeted treatments by modulating epigenetic pathways. Aimed at researchers, practitioners, and students in oncology and medical sciences, this book provides insights into the latest advancements in cancer treatment, emphasizing the integration of epigenetic and nanotechnology approaches to improve therapeutic outcomes. |
