Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Bone development involves interaction of genetic and environmental factors and is a dynamic process across one’s lifespan. This Special Issue seeks to gather recent advances to unravel the complexity of cellular pathways and networks affecting bone health. In this Special Issue, groundbreaking knowledge related to the molecular mechanisms underlying bone biology will be presented. In addition, readers can find research that provides insights into neoplastic transformation and progression into malignant lesions. Finally, this Special Issue will point out novel potential factors and molecules with clinical value for early diagnosis, therapeutic approaches and follow up of patients. Altogether, the information provided herein will also prompt future research with the aim of improving the current clinical management available for the patients affected by bone cancer.
