Genomic instability and cancer metastasis : mechanisms, emerging themes, and novel therapeutic strategies /

Metastasis is the primary cause of mortality associated with cancer, and tumor genomic heterogeneity is a likely source for the cells that support cancer progression, resistance to therapy, and disease relapse. This book connects cancer metastasis with genomic instability in a comprehensive manner....
