Pathogenesis of malignant pleural mesothelioma and the role of environmental and genetic factors.
- Authors
Weiner, Shoshana J; Neragi-Miandoab, Siyamek
- Abstract
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive tumor for which no effective therapy exists despite the discovery of many possible molecular and genetic targets. The late stage of MPM diagnosis and the long latency that exist between some exposures and diagnosis have made it difficult to comprehensively evaluate the role of risk factors and their downstream molecular effects.
