Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Breast cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality in women worldwide. Recent breakthroughs in molecular biology and genomics have revolutionized our understanding of breast cancer pathogenesis, paving the way for novel diagnostics, prognostic markers, and personalized therapeutic strategies.
We welcome original research articles, reviews, and short communications exploring the following topics:
- Molecular signaling pathways in breast cancer progression and metastasis;
- Genomic and epigenetic biomarkers for early detection and prognosis;
- Hormone receptor dynamics and resistance mechanisms;
- Advances in immunotherapy and targeted molecular treatments;
- Role of non-coding RNAs and extracellular vesicles in breast cancer;
- Preclinical models and translational studies in personalized medicine.
Dr. Marcus Vetter
