Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to submit your research to a Special Issue entitled “Updates on Pancretic Disease”. Nowadays, diseases related to the pancreas present a significant challenge to patients. Cancers affecting the exocrine and neuroendocrine pancreas still require a therapy that is both effective and less toxic in order to benefit patient survival and prognosis. The molecular mechanisms characterizing tumorigenesis have been broadly depicted, yet much remains to be discovered. The development of personalized precision therapy could be promising for patients currently in need of treatment.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the most recent discoveries related to pancreas tumorigenesis, neuroendocrine diseases associated with MEN1 and MEN2, and neoplasia.
For this Special Issue, original research articles, reviews, and short commentaries are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasia, pancreatic neuroendocrine dieseases, MEN1 and MEN2, and pancreatic tumorigenesis and metastasis. Both clinical and pre-clinical studies are welcome.
We look forward to receiving your contributions
Dr. Pietro Di Fazio
Guest Editor
