Overview

This volume focuses on new approaches in the molecular and clinical management of gastrointestinal tumours. The first part presents recent insights into carcinogenesis, including alterations in cycline and adhesion receptors, molecular structures which might be new targets of gene therapy. The second part offers new diagnostic tools, such as receptors for gastrointestinal hormones, proliferation markers, tumour suppressor proteins, and the multiple drug resistance gene, predicting response to therapy and prognosis of gastrointestinal tumours. The third part gives an update of successful approaches in primary and secondary prevention of colorectal carcinoma.
