Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cancer remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide. As a leading cause of global mortality, cancer compels the relentless carrying out of research. Understanding its intricate nature, shaped by genetic mutations, epigenetic changes, and complex tumor microenvironments, requires a multifaceted approach, extending beyond cellular studies to comprehensive in vivo investigations.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to assemble cutting-edge research exploring the latest developments in this dynamic field, ranging from the identification and validation of novel biomarkers, crucial for early detection and prognosis, to the development of personalized treatment strategies, with a special focus on emerging therapeutic targets. This Special Issue focuses on innovative approaches that promise to revolutionize cancer therapy, covering areas from the molecular intricacies of tumor microenvironments to the clinical applications of precision medicine.
This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current progress in cancer cell biology, ultimately facilitating the development of improved clinical outcomes for patients.
