About this ebook

Emerging Strategies in Cancer Metabolism: Role of Gut Microbiota, Reactive Oxygen Species, and Short Chain Fatty Acids offers a revolutionary investigation of the complicated relationships between cancer metabolism and three crucial factors: the gut microbiota, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the dysregulation of the short chain fatty acid (SCF) complex. This book adopts a thorough and interdisciplinary approach to untangle the intricate interactions between these components, providing fresh perspectives that fundamentally alters the understanding of cancer biology and therapy. In 14 chapters.Emerging Strategies in Cancer Metabolism: Role of Gut Microbiota, Reactive Oxygen Species, and Short Chain Fatty Acids provides a thorough investigation of the metabolic changes that occur inside cancer cells, illuminating how these changes promote tumour survival and progression, from introduction to future aspects. Researchers in cancer research, and gut microbiology will find this an essential reference. - Creates new opportunities for focused therapies and patient-specific therapy plans by exploring the roles of the gut microbiota, ROS, and SCF dysregulation in cancer metabolism - Discusses in-vitro, ex-vivo, and animal models used to examine the effects of probiotics and their metabolites in cancer care - Focuses on cutting-edge research on probiotics and their byproducts treatments in oncogene downregulation, autophagy induction, kinase inhibition, tumour suppressor reactivation, and metastasis prevention
