Tópicos em Biologia Tumoral: Biologia da Disseminação

Ementa

O câncer apresenta-se como importante problema de saúde pública, exibindo elevada morbidade e mortalidade em todo o mundo. A principal limitação à resolução dessa condição é o seu potencial de disseminação. Neste contexto a disciplina visa abordar elementos relevantes do processo de disseminação  tumoral, dentro de um enfoque celular e molecular, destacando-se:
Teorias de crescimento tumoral e vias de disseminação
CSCs, dormência tumoral e nichos pré-metastáticos;
Neurotransmissores, quimiocinas e disseminação tumoral;
Microambiente tumoral; estroma e invasão ;
Marcadores prognósticos em oncologia;
Inflamação, imunidade e imunoterapia no câncer: aspectos críticos.
