Molecular Radiation Biology is written by Barry S. Rosenstein and published by Academic Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0443134693 (ISBN 10) and 9780443134692 (ISBN 13).

- Molecular Radiation Biology explores a range of molecular processes that lead to specific responses to radiation. Topics covered include radiation-Induced DNA damages and repair processes, molecular pathways of cell death, molecular signaling in irradiated cells, and cell response to radiation. The book also explores cell cycle control, immunotherapy and radiation effects on the immune system, tumor microenvironment and metabolism, and epigenetics. Later chapters consider multiple topics in cancer biology, such as chemotherapeutic agents, radiation carcinogenesis, hallmarks of cancer, as well as responses to radiation at the tissue, organ and whole-body scale. This book provides an up to date and detailed overview of the latest advances in the field of radiation biology and its impact at a molecular scale, acting as an ideal reference for researchers working in molecular biology, oncology, and related fields - Focuses on the topic of radiation biology at the cellular and molecular level - Addresses the topic from fundamentals through to clinical application - Considers the latest advances in the field of radiation biology and radiation oncology
