Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The scope of this special issue is to collect papers referring to the molecular profile of gastrointestinal cancer cells. It can be focused on tissue samples or circulating cells, but experimental studies are also welcomed. Histochemical, immunohistochemical, or other molecular techniques used to create a cancer cell profile can also be included. This Special Issue which is guest edited by a professor of pathology might be extended to those clinical studies in which the prognostic or predictive value of biomarkers is checked. Of course, extensive literature reviews and meta-analyses can complete the circle of the molecular profile of cancer cells, which is far from being understood. The submitted papers can be about tumors of the gastrointestinal tract as well as liver, pancreas, and metastatic tumors.
Prof. Dr. Simona Gurzu
