Folate: Pharmaceutical Perspectives of Cancer Therapeutics.

      Аннотация: Folate: Pharmaceutical Perspectives of Cancer Therapeutics presents a comprehensive yet easy-to-follow review of the principles, current progress and state-of-the-art of cancer therapeutics keeping Folate and it's conjugates as the principal diagnostic approach. The complexity of cancer demands an integrated understanding from both cancer biology and pharmaceutical dosage forms and drug delivery in order to warrant a successful therapeutic regimen. This book combines and merges the knowledge from these two aspects. I have tried to compile many aspects related to folate conjugates and their applications in cancer therapeutics in this book to bridge the following areas between basic research and clinical application, pharmaceutical drug development processes, drug design and delivery, recent advances in cancer drugs and imaging techniques, future prospectives of various ongoing techniques and their modalities.
