Download or read book New Research on Genomic Instability written by Eleanor J. Gloscow and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many cancer biologists now believe that genomic instability not only initiates carcinogenesis, but also allows the tumour cell to become metastatic and evade drug toxicity. The loss of stability of the genome is becoming accepted as one of the most important aspects of carcinogenesis. One of the hallmarks of the cancer cell is the inherent instability of its genome. This book presents important research in this exciting field.
