Bioactive Lipids in Cancer Therapy: A Comprehensive Review

Bioactive lipid metabolism and signaling have emerged as crucial players in cancer biology, and their potential as effective weapons against cancer is gaining significant attention. This volume aims to bridge the gap in current cancer therapy by presenting cutting-edge research on the use of bioactive lipids in cancer treatment.

The Role of Bioactive Lipids in Cancer Treatment

Bioactive lipids, including lipoxins, ceramides, resolvins, and sphingosine-1-phosphate, have shown promising results in combating various types of cancer. This volume delves into the chemistry, formulation, and mechanism of these lipids, exploring their potential as novel therapies.

Emerging Mechanisms of Bioactive Lipids in Cancer Treatment

The book covers a range of mechanisms, including the use of computational techniques to identify bioactive lipid drug targets, targeting therapy via KRAS and PI3K signals, and more. It also discusses the role of bioactive lipids in various cancers, such as colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, and others.

Applications of Bioactive Lipids in Cancer Therapy

The volume explores the application of various bioactive lipids, including lysophosphatidic acid, lipopolysaccharide, lipid-soluble bioactive substances from avocado, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids-derived lipid metabolites, and more. These innovative approaches offer new hope in the fight against cancer.

Target Audience

This comprehensive volume is an essential resource for academia, technologists, and scientists from diverse disciplines seeking to understand the role of bioactive lipid metabolism and signaling as an anti-cancer weapon.
