Cancer Cell Biology, Diagnosis and Applied Research are using cell biological and other methods to investigate the mechanisms that regulate cell proliferation and differentiation. This is an approach applied to understanding basic cell physiology, cancer biology and the pathogenesis of infectious diseases. There is different area of research within the Research Theme. There is considerable interaction between individual laboratories in those areas. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are cancer cells that possess characteristics associated with normal stem cells, the ability to give rise to all cell types found in a particular cancer sample.  The process by which cancer cells spread to other parts of the body is also called metastasis. Virtually all cancers, including cancers of the blood and the lymphatic system, can form metastatic tumors. The metastasis of blood and lymphatic system cancers to the lung, central nervous system, heart and other tissues has been reported. Cancer is a multistep process involving several cell signalling pathways. These include the capacities to proliferate independently of exogenous growth-promoting signals, to invade surrounding tissues and metastasize to distant site sand to evade mechanisms that limit cell proliferation, such as apoptosis and replicative senescence. Membrane proteins are involved in the prognosis of the most common forms of cancer. Membrane proteins are the hallmark of a cancer cell. These overexpressed membrane receptors are becoming increasingly important in cancer cell therapy. Molecular oncology is an interdisciplinary medical specialty at the interface of medicinal chemistry and oncology that refers to the investigation of the chemistry of cancer and tumors at the molecular scale, involved in basic and translational cancer research on the cell and tissue level and bioinformatics developments in this area, and clinical applications.  In the social sciences and life sciences, a case study is an implementation of a research method involving an up-close, and detailed examination of a subject of study (the case), as well as its related contextual conditions.This Session Includes Molecular and cellular oncology, Cancer Genomics and Systems Biology, Metabolic complexity of signal transduction, Cancer stem cells, Case studies.For More Information please, CLICK HERE
