Abstract
The pioneering studies of Dr. Larry Keefer and colleagues with diazeniumdiolates or NONOates as a platform have unraveled the chemical biology of many nitric oxides and have led to the design of a variety of promising therapeutic agents in oncology, gastroenterology, antimicrobials, wound healing, and the like. This dedication to Dr. Larry Keefer briefly highlights some of his studies using the diazeniumdiolate platform in the cancer arena.
期刊介绍:
The journal is dedicated to extensive reviews, minireviews, and special theme issues on topics of current interest in basic and patient-oriented cancer research. The study of systems biology of cancer with its potential for molecular level diagnostics and treatment implies competence across the sciences and an increasing necessity for cancer researchers to understand both the technology and medicine. The journal allows readers to adapt a better understanding of various fields of molecular oncology. We welcome articles on basic biological mechanisms relevant to cancer such as DNA repair, cell cycle, apoptosis, angiogenesis, tumor immunology, etc.
