Klappentext zu „Mimotope Vaccines against Tumor Antigens “
Cancer is an important public health concern since it is the second leading cause of death in the developed world. Previous treatments, such as surgical tumor resection, radio- or chemotherapy also harm healthy tissue and, therefore, are limited by these adverse effects. In contrast, immunotherapy using the endogenous defense mechanisms poses a specific, nontoxic and mild therapy. But how can we approach this advantageous new therapy? This book gives us an introductory review of the role of the immune system in recognition and prevention of cancer as well as of current research strategies. Furthermore, the author provides a detailed guide for creating so called mimotopes for the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), which is a possible basis for establishing active immunotherapy, i.e. cancer vaccination.This book is mainly directed at PhD students and young scientists interested in oncology.
