Genetic Susceptibility to Cancer

Explore the groundbreaking insights in "Genetic Susceptibility to Cancer" by Seymour Garte, published by Springer-Verlag New York Inc. in 2012. This informative paperback, spanning 137 pages, delves into the intricate relationship between genetics and cancer risk. Recent research highlighted in this book reveals that many sporadic (non-familial) cancer cases may be linked to defects in metabolic genes that were not previously associated with cancer susceptibility. Garte's work sheds light on how these genetic aberrations can contribute to the onset of cancer or elevate the risk of developing the disease. Ideal for researchers, students, and anyone interested in the genetic aspects of carcinogenesis, this book is a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of cancer risk factors.
