Translational Toxicology and Therapeutics: Windows of Developmental Susceptibility in Reproduction and Cancer: Windows of Developmental Susceptibility in Reproduction and Cancer

Written by leading research scientists, this book integrates current knowledge of toxicology and human health through coverage of environmental toxicants, genetic / epigenetic mechanisms, and carcinogenicity. Provides information on lifestyle choices that can reduce cancer risk Offers a systematic approach to identify mutagenic, developmental and reproductive toxicants Helps readers develop new animal models and tests to assess toxic impacts of mutation and cancer on human health Explains specific cellular and molecular targets of known toxicants operating through genetic and epigenetic mechanisms "This book integrates current knowledge of toxicology and human health through coverage of environmental toxicants, genetic / epigenetic mechanisms, and carcinogenicity." rovides information on lifestyle choices that can reduce cancer risk " ffers a systematic approach to identify mutagenic, developmental and reproductive toxicants " elps readers develop new animal models and tests to assess toxic impacts of mutation and cancer on human health " xplains specific cellular and molecular targets of known toxicants operating through genetic and epigenetic mechanisms"--Website publisher
