Proteostasis and Cancer

In Proteostasis and Cancer, 1st Edition, author Buddhi Prakash Jain offers a systematic reference exploring protein homeostasis within neoplastic biological systems. Published by Academic Press in 2026, the volume examines how cellular machinery regulates protein synthesis, structural integrity, and degradation in cancer settings.

The work presents focused coverage of foundational molecular processes, analyzing post-translational modifications, protein folding pathways, and cellular proteolysis. The analysis details organelle-level responses under physiological strain, focusing on endoplasmic reticulum stress alongside the unfolded protein response to explain how tumor cells manage internal proteomic perturbations.

Organized as a clear subject reference, the material provides analytical grounding to assist advanced academic instruction, literature synthesis, and specialized inquiry into protein regulation. The volume establishes foundational concepts necessary for analyzing cellular stress and protein quality control mechanics.
