Description :

Protein kinase c in cancer signaling and therapy is composed of twenty three chapters written by leading experts in the field the book is divided into four sections regulation of pkc isozyme function from genes to biochemistry pkc isozymes in the control of cell function pkc isozymes in cancer and pkc isozymes as targets for cancer therapy. Abstract the identification of protein kinase c pkc some thirty years ago was a landmark discovery in the field of signal transduction and ushered an era of intense research in this signaling pathway that we now know controls virtually aspects of cellular physiology. Each section of protein kinase c in cancer signaling and therapy begins with an introduction by an established professional in the field of protein kinase c followed by chapters that elucidate the importance of pkc in current cancer research. Each section of protein kinase c in cancer signaling and therapy begins with an introduction by an established professional in the field of protein kinase c followed by chapters that elucidate the importance of pkc in current cancer research. Pkc protein kinase c is well established in cancer signaling and therapy as it is involved in proliferation migration and malignant transformation 15 and its isozyme has been suggested for
