Facilitating efforts to prevent melanoma progression, this up-to-date reference presents the most recent advances in the pathology, molecular biology, and therapy of melanoma in early, high-risk, and advanced stages. Discusses growth factors, cytokines, receptors, oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, adhesion molecules, and proteases in melanoma and examines the appropriate use of interferon adjuvant therapy! Written by leading authorities from the United States and Europe, Molecular Diagnosis and Treatment of Melanoma details the preclinical and clinical basis for new vaccines based on gangliosides and peptides explains the roles of chemotherapy and radiosurgery reviews the molecular features of melanoma and precursor cells describes the events involved in induction and maintenance of antitumor T-cell response and various escape mechanisms from immune recognition analyzes melanotic and dysplastic nevi explores the potential of vaccines that induce antibodies in immunotherapy and vaccines in high-risk melanoma summarizes cytotoxic chemotherapy in treating metastatic melanoma elucidates whole-brain radiotherapy, surgical resection, and stereotactic radiosurgery in managing melanoma brain metastasis and more! Containing key bibliographic citations for more in-depth study of particular topics, Molecular Diagnosis and Treatment of Melanoma is an excellent resource for oncologists, dermatologists, molecular and cell biologists, immunologists, pathologists, pharmacologists, toxicologists, interns, residents, fellows, and graduate and medical school students in these disciplines.
