Klappentext zu „Glioma Cell Biology “
Gliomas are fatal diseases, but also represent good models for tumor research with the aim to eventually discover new and appropriate therapeutics against this disease. Glioma experimental research models are of help to investigate tumorigenesis (tumor stem cell theory versus "classical" opinions), tumor angiogenesis (since they are highly vascularized) and tumor invasion (since they grow without limits). In addition, they have a very special microenvironment (the brain) and limited tumor stroma cells (mainly microglia and endothelial cells). This book addresses the molecular mechanisms of the various tumor stages, describes the interaction with the tumor microenvironment and furthermore depicts experimental models for Glioma research and future therapeutic concepts. The book is composed and written for Scientists and Medical Doctors in Oncology, Neurosciences and Molecular Biology.

Autoren-Porträt
Aleksi Sedo started his career as a Research Associate at the Institute of Chest Diseases in Prague, Czech Republic in 1987. He subsequently served as a Visiting Scientist and Professor at the Institute of Mutagenesis and Differentiation, which is funded by the Consiglio Nazionale de la Recherche (CNR) in Pisa, Italy. In 1996 he became an Assistant Professor of Biochemistry at the Institute of Medical Chemistry and Biochemistry, 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University, Prague and was appointed Associate Professor in 1997. From 1999 to 2002 Professor Sedo was a Senior Scientist at Procter and Gamble in Germany. Today he is a Professor of Medical Chemistry and Biochemistry, Head of the Institute of Biochemistry and Experimental Oncology, and Dean of the 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University in Prague. His research is oriented on the role of proteases in the cancer development, mostly in gliomagenesis.
