Therapeutic Applications of Nitric Oxide in Cancer and Inflammatory Diseases: Third International Conference on Therapeutic Application of Nitric Oxide in Cancer and Inflammatory Disorders presents updated information on the chemistry and signaling of newly derived therapeutic nitric oxide donors/inhibitors and their complexes in liposomes or nanospheres in both pre-clinical and clinical activities. In six parts, the book discusses examples of research related to the application of novel therapeutic compounds that focus on a chemical, nitric oxide, and their applications that have been shown to exert significant therapeutic activities against various resistant cancers unresponsive to current treatments and different inflammatory diseases. This is a valuable resource for cancer researchers, oncologists, graduate students, and researchers from medical and biomedical fields who want to know more about NO and its therapeutic applications in cancer and inflammatory diseases. It is also highly useful for both scientists and clinicians as well as pharmaceutical companies involved in the development of new anticancer/anti-inflammatory agents.
