Phytochemicals in Cancer Therapy and Beyond

Phytochemicals in cancer therapy and beyond examines the role of natural products in the treatment of diseases, with a focus on cancer. With a strong focus on the treatment of diseases, it demonstrates the mechanisms that natural products follow in treatment. In 24 chapters the book describes not only regular cancer treatments and challenges, and developments in cancer treatment but in particular Phytochemicals and cellular mechanisms in cancer therapy, phytochemicals and molecular pathways in cancer, and Nano-scale delivery systems for phytochemicals in cancer therapy. The book concludes with clinical applications of phytochemical therapies. This book is a valuable resource for researchers in the field of oncology, disease therapy, diabetes mellitus treatment, cellular signaling scientists, and nanomaterial engineers Evaluates the role of natural products in the treatment of diseases, especially cancer. Provides details evaluating the role of natural products in regulating cellular and molecular mechanisms in cancer therapy. Focuses on the use of nanoparticles for delivery of natural products in disease therapy Encompasses a high number of schematic figures to make it easier for readers to understand concepts Demonstrates the mechanisms that natural products follow in treatment of diseases, especially cancer therapy
