Molecular exploitation of apoptosis pathways in prostate cancer
Kyprianou, Natasha.

Molecular exploitation of apoptosis pathways in prostate cancer[electronic resource] /Natasha Kyprianou. - Singapore :World Scientific,2012. - 1 online resource (230 p.) - Molecular Medicine and Medicinal Chemistry. - Molecular medicine and medicinal chemistry..

9.1 Aspirin and Non-Aspirin Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs).

Preface; Contents; Chapter 1 Introduction: Prostate Cancer; Chapter 2 The Prostate Gland Dynamics; Chapter 3 Apoptosis Pathways Signaling Execution of Cancer Cells; 3.1 Cell Choices of Life and Death; 3.1.1 "Classic" apoptosis; 3.1.2 Anoikis; 3.2 Caspases: The Apoptosis Executioners in a Therapeutic Setting; 3.3 The Mitochondrion: A Convenient Cell-Killing Platform; 3.4 Cell Surface Death Receptors and the FAS Ligand; 3.5 Meet the BCL-2 Family: Governors of Cell Survival and Death; 3.6 The Transcriptional Controllers; 3.7 The p53 Tumor Suppressor.

This book focuses on the functional significance of targeting apoptosis for the treatment of prostate cancer. New concepts on the challenges relating to the development of resistance by androgen-independent tumors are introduced, in terms of the contribution of anoikis and cross-talk of androgens with key growth factor signaling pathways. This volume also provides insightful discussion on the exploitation of the apoptotic and angiogenic synergism towards complete eradication of prostate tumors. Last but not least, it includes reflections on the drug development challenge based on the analysis.
