Cancer Biomarkers: Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology 2413)
Unlock the power of precision oncology with “Cancer Biomarkers: Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology, Book 2413)”, now available at Books Hub PK. This comprehensive volume in the trusted Methods in Molecular Biology series presents a robust collection of cutting-edge laboratory protocols for the identification, validation, and clinical application of cancer biomarkers.
Cancer biomarkers are essential tools for early diagnosis, prognosis, therapy selection, and monitoring of treatment responses. This book provides practical, hands-on methods that reflect the latest advances in biomarker discovery technologies, including liquid biopsies, proteomics, genomics, transcriptomics, and epigenetics.
Authored by leading researchers, each chapter is structured to offer:
Step-by-step experimental protocols
Detailed reagent lists and setup instructions
Expert troubleshooting tips
Discussion of limitations and applications
Topics include circulating tumor cells (CTCs), microRNAs, exosomal biomarkers, methylation markers, next-generation sequencing (NGS), and multiplex assay systems. These protocols are highly relevant for academic researchers and clinical scientists engaged in translational cancer research.
Key Features:
Methods for biomarker isolation, detection, and validation
Applications in breast, lung, colorectal, prostate, and hematologic cancers
Techniques for tissue, plasma, serum, and urine-based biomarker analysis
Covers both research and clinical laboratory environments
Includes bioinformatics tools for data interpretation
This book is an essential resource for molecular biologists, oncologists, pathologists, and biotechnology professionals working on cancer detection, personalized medicine, and therapeutic target identification. It is especially valuable for PhD students, research scholars, and lab technicians involved in oncology, diagnostics, and biomarker development.
