Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Endocrine system tumors are a group of proliferative disorders of endocrine glands that are usually associated with the excessive secretion of hormonally active substances (hormones, biogenic amines, catecholamines, and other substances) or substances that do not have any hormonal activity. These tumors can be benign or malignant; the diagnostics of this group of tumors is complex and often requires very specialized investigations (imaging, biochemical, molecular, etc.). Advanced biochemical tests referred to as ‘-omics’ techniques (steroidomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, proteomics, transcriptomics) and molecular biology, often supported by artificial intelligence, open new possibilities in clinical diagnostics. That is, their introduction into diagnostics creates new diagnostic possibilities concerning various stages of the diagnostic and therapeutic process in patients with endocrine system tumors. Furthermore, novel diagnostic techniques enable research in the field of the basic sciences and are increasingly important in medicine/clinical biology. The study of entire panels of chemical compounds/peptides provides a range of important information, the analysis of which in relation to clinical data enables the completion of often advanced clinical diagnostics.
With this, this Special Issue invites original or review papers on research into the diagnostics and biology of endocrine gland tumors. We look forward to your contributions.
Dr. Piotr Glinicki
