Mitochondria as Targets for Phytochemicals in Cancer Prevention and Therapy has three major themes. Theme one describes the current knowledge on environmental and genetic factors that cause cancer initiation and progression, the role of mitochondria in regulating the process of carcinogenesis, and c...
