The book includes the topic of the emerging roles of endogenous TLR4 ligands whose functions are shared intriguingly by metastasis and auto-inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. For example, most cancer therapies established so far are effective initially. However, they eventually face the great obstacles of drug resistance, immune evasion, and metastatic progression. One of the endogenous TLR4 ligands is thought to contribute to all three processes. The most important features of the book are to explain a concept of homeostatic inflammation, disturbance of which in the lungs gives rise to the establishment of a pre-metastatic pulmonary microenvironment based on primary tumor-mediated hijacking of the innate immune defense system against respiratory infection. In addition, structure-based thinking is another important feature of this book. It is proposed that inflammation forms a functional triangle with angiogenesis and coagulation, in the center of which cancer is located. Given the proposal of precision medicine by President Obama in the United States in 2015 and the recent success of immune-modulator-based therapy, this book will appeal to researchers in a variety of fields with the title of the book connecting the worst disease (metastasis) and the most fundamental event (inflammation) that is common to many diseases. 000759841 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed August 5, 2016). 000759841 650_0 $$aInflammation. 000759841 650_0 $$aMetastasis. 000759841 650_0 $$aCancer$$xMolecular aspects. 000759841 650_0 $$aCancer$$xImmunological aspects. 000759841 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9784431560227 000759841 852__ $$bebk 000759841 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-4-431-56024-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000759841 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:759841$$pGLOBAL_SET 000759841 980__ $$aEBOOK 000759841 980__ $$aBIB 000759841 982__ $$aEbook 000759841 983__ $$aOnline 000759841 994__ $$a92$$bISE
