Nutrition and Cancer: Molecular Mechanisms between Nutrition and Cancer Etiology, Prevention, and Treatment

Dear Colleagues, 

This Special Issue focuses on the effects and the underlined molecular mechanisms of nutrition and cancer etiology, prevention, and the treatment of cancer, including epidemiological effects. This Special Issue also focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlining etiological factors through clinical and experimental research. Original research as well as review articles on the molecular mechanisms related to the nutritional assessment and management of cancer patients in association with disease progression, prognosis and cotreatment with standard therapy and a quality-of-life assessment are welcome. Cancer prevention approaches including public health recommendations and policies, healthy dietary patterns, and individual foods or naturally occurring bioactive compounds with anticancer activity are also welcome.

Topics of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to:

• Nutritional assessment and management of cancer patients;
• Etiological factors and clinical and experimental research, carcinogenesis, and epidemiology in cancer;
• Nutrition and disease progression, prognosis and cotreatment with standard therapy and a quality-of-life assessment of cancer patients;
• Nutritional prevention with the use of clinical and experimental research.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
