Obesity and cancer

Obesity and cancer / Shashank Kumar, Sanjay Gupta, editors.

This book highlights the concordance between signaling pathways that are involved in obesity and cancer cross-talks. It describes the role of cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, insulin, and adipokines in the development of obesity-associated cancers. The book reviews the role of inflammatory sig...
