"Focuses on understanding the negative impact of hypoxia in cancer progression. Describes how hypoxia promotes key events that lead to cancer metastasis. Provides current approaches used clinically and pre-clinically to identify and target hypoxic cancer cells"--Publisher's web …
"Understanding the principal determinants of oxygen uptake kinetics is fundamental to improving both human performance in sport and quality of life in disease states. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge within this emerging and buoyant f…
In recent years there has been an enormous increase in the study of the features of the VO2 kinetic response to exercise physiologists, this is the first text entirely dedicated to this topic. It includes material in the following areas : an historical overview of research in VO…
Despite its crucial importance, scientists interested in the limitations of human physical performance have only just started to give the field of oxygen uptake kinetics the attention it deserves. Understanding the principal determinant of the oxygen uptake kinetics is fundament…

Based on the 38th annual conference of the International Society on Oxygen Transport to Tissue (ISOTT), held in Ascona, Switzerland in July 2010, this volume covers all aspects of oxygen transport from air to the cells, organs and organisms; instrumentation and methods to sense …
This book describes the interlaced histories of life and oxygen. It opens with the generation of oxygen in ancient stars and its distribution to newly formed planets like the Earth. Free O2 was not available on the early Earth, so the first life forms had to be anaerobic. Life i…
