Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the Special Issue entitled "Cell Biology: The State of the Art and Perspectives in Japan 2025". In our rapidly evolving scientific landscape, cell biology remains at the forefront of exploration and discovery. This Special Issue serves as a platform to showcase the latest advancements and insights emerging from the vibrant scientific community in Japan. It brings together a diverse range of contributions from researchers, scholars, and experts who are dedicated to unraveling the mysteries of cellular life.
This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the state of the art of cell biology in Japan. The Special Issue will publish full research articles and comprehensive reviews. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following research areas:
OMICS—transcriptomics, genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, glycomics, lipidomics, interactomics, fluxomics, and biomics;
Cell structure—organelles, cytoskeleton, cell membrane, capsule, flagella, etc.;
Cell physiology—cell growth, metabolism, protein synthesis, division, movement of proteins, active/passive transport, intra- and extra-cellular signaling, adhesion, DNA repair, etc.;
Cell movement and motility;
Autophagy;
Apoptosis;
Cell aging;
Cell techniques—cell and tissue culture, isolation and fractionation of cells, immunocytochemistry (ICC), in situ hybridization (ISH), transfection, and optogenetics;
Cell growth and differentiation;
Hematopoiesis and stem cells;
Cancer stem cells;
Genetic disorders;
CAR-T cell research.
Thank you for your participation in this exciting journey of discovery, and we look forward to sharing the remarkable contributions that await this Special Issue: "Cell Biology: The State of the Art and Perspectives in Japan 2025."
