    Abstract: This textbook discusses the systemic consequences of cancer, covering a range of topics from tumor-promoting systemic effects to the development of cachexia, as summarized in the introductory chapter 1. Part I of this textbook focuses on tumor-promoting systemic effects and begins with a chapter on how tumor-derived extracellular vesicles and particles lay the foundation for future metastases (Chapter 2). Chapter 3 discusses how metastatic cells that have colonized the bone impact the local bone microenvironment, neighboring muscles, and host physiology. Chapter 4 summarizes the available strategies for targeting metastatic cancer and emphasizes the need to incorporate a systemic view of the disease. Following this overview of the systemic effects of cancer progression, Part II of the textbook discusses cancer-induced cachexia, a debilitating systemic effect of advanced cancer. Chapters 5-7 examine the key signaling pathways (interleukin-6/GP130, NF-kB, and muscle proteolysis) that drive the development of cancer cachexia. Chapters 8 and 9 in Part III of this textbook explore how toxicities from anti-cancer therapy are associated with the onset of cachexia in cancer patients, and provide insight into potential approaches to simultaneously target both cancer and cachexia. Chapters 10 and 11 (Part IV) conclude this textbook by outlining promising approaches for the diagnosis and treatment of cachexia as well as strategies to prevent the development of cachexia through exercise. An understanding of the systemic effects of cancer is essential for the design of effective anti-cancer and anti-cachexia treatment strategies. As such, this textbook provides key information for both students and scientists engaged in cancer research and oncology.

    Abstract: This book introduces the most important and best studied extracellular and pericellular molecules of the tumor microenvironment. It gives a comprehensive overview of their role in tumor development and cancer progression. Twelve chapters deal with the biochemical and biophysical background of extracellular matrix (ECM) changes in the tumor stroma compared to the physiological state. The reader learns about the major ECM components that are deregulated during cancer development and how they are associated with cancer progression associated with survival, inflammation process, among others. These are followed by recent data about the cooperative activity of extracellular matrix in tumor metabolism, promoting cancer progression. Two chapters focus specifically on the critical role of the ECM in tumor angiogenesis, linking this process to cellular infiltration and metastatic behavior of tumors. The final part describes how the ECM influences the success of immuno- and chemotherapy in cancer patients, its potential as biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic target, as well as the mechanism of resistance-associated changes in the ECM. This book is an interesting read for anyone who want to know more about ECM and cancer biology. Early career scientists can use it as an introduction to the field, offering an excellent tool for studying ECM. Advanced researchers and clinicians can gain a broader overview of the subject, considering the role of ECM for influencing every cancer hallmark as well as in the response of cancer treatments. The work serves to inspire future research and shows that the ECM should be considered as an important factor in the development of cancer therapeutics. The series "Biology of Extracellular Matrix" is published in collaboration with the American Society for Matrix Biology and the International Society for Matrix Biology.

    Description / Table of Contents: Assays for monitoring autophagy in stem cells -- Autophagy in Stem Cell Maintenance and Differentiation -- Autophagy in Embryonic stem cells and Neural stem cells -- Autophagy in Germline Stem Cells -- The role of autophagy in the regulation of hematopoietic stem cells -- Autophagy in Muscle Stem Cells -- Autophagy in Intestinal Stem Cells -- The autophagy lysosomal pathway: friend or foe in adult neural stem cells? -- Autophagy in Mesenchymal Stem Cell-based therapy -- Autophagic control of stem cells differentiation into osteogenic lineage- Implications in bone disorders -- Autophagy in Cancer Metastasis.
    Abstract: This book covers a wide range of topics that illustrate the various functions of autophagy in stem cells and offers insights on the mechanisms by which autophagy can regulate stem-cell self-renewal and facilitate specific differentiation programs. Stem cells are unique cells present in most multicellular animals and are essential for their survival. They have two unique properties: the ability to self-renew and the ability to differentiate into one or more cell types. These characteristics of stem cells have found immense therapeutic potential in regenerative medicine. Autophagy is a crucial membrane trafficking pathway that is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis that involves sequestration of non-functional proteins, protein aggregates and damaged organelles in double-membraned vesicles called autophagosomes, which are subsequently targeted to the lysosome for degradation. The primary aim of this book is to provide knowledge of recent developments in our understanding of the role of autophagy in stem cells, including germline stem cells. Autophagy is considered a promising target for many diseases. Significant efforts are being developed to identify specific modulators of autophagy, which will aid in designing combinatorial therapeutic strategies that will allow significant improvements in regenerative medicine.

    Abstract: This book will allow readers to discover the crucial role of tumor microenvironment (TME) in the selection of cancer cells that are more prone to carry on cancer initiation and progression. The metabolic remodeling, as the basis of life overall, allows the adaptive establishment of a tumor in a certain TME, which in turn presents a variety of selective pressures. Coupled with the late diagnosis, the poor therapy response are the main hurdles limiting oncological disease control and eventual cure. Thus the metabolic plasticity of cancer cells often underlies chemoresistance. This edited work presents an exhaustive description and comprehensive view of cancer metabolism as a weapon used by cancer cells to adapt to TME. TME and the organ microenvironment is analyzed as a whole, considering cancer cells, stromal cells and microbiota. This complex circuit is observed as the support for disease development and therapy evasion but also as a valuable kernel, presenting new players to be targeted in a more precise cancer therapy. The various threads of cancer biology related to TME and metabolic adaptation will be addressed including: 1) key players in the metabolic network; 2) the way adaptive metabolic features are sustained by TME; 3) TME and metabolic signaling, accounting for cancer cells survival; 4) metabolic fitness driven limitations in therapy response, and 5) the way TME and cancer metabolism can be helpful in the design of new drugs. In addition, the usefulness, technical strengths and weaknesses of analytical techniques useful in cancer metabolomics will be presented in an integrative way. Moreover, the use of innovative and traditional in vitro and in vivo cancer models, as powerful tools to address the influence of TME in cancer progression and metabolic reprogramming will be also presented. This work was written by experts and dedicated to researchers with interests in cancer biology, TME, cancer metabolism and therapy. It will interest the Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology readership, including basic researchers, analytic researchers, bio-engineers and clinicians.

    Abstract: Gliomas, developing in the brain from the transformed glial cells, are a very special kind of tumor, extremely refractory to conventional treatments. Therefore, for the development of new antitumor strategies, a better understanding of molecular mechanisms responsible for their biology, growth and invasion is still needed. This book is a reference on cellular signaling processes regulating gliomas physiology and invasiveness. The work is focused on the mechanism of nucleotide receptor activation by exogenous nucleotides and formation of complex signaling cascades induced by growth factors, cytokines and cannabinoids. The second edition of the book enriched in new chapters provides a framework explaining how signal transduction elements may modulate numerous genetic and epigenetic alterations, describes the role of local microenvironment in cellular growth, progression and invasion and, in the light of extensive new results, presents perspectives concerning potential targets for gliomas therapy.
