Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Carcinogenesis in the Hamster

Experimental Hamster Models

Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Carcinogenesis: Experimental Hamster Models presents an in-depth examination of experimental models used to study the development of liver, biliary, and pancreatic cancers. Focusing on the hamster as a translational model, the book explores tumor biology, molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis, pathological changes, inflammation, and chemoprevention. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, pathologists, oncologists, veterinarians, and biomedical scientists involved in cancer research.
