Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Dysregulating cellular metabolism is one of the hallmarks of cancer, and cancer bioenergetics is a critical portion of cancer metabolism, playing an important role in ATP production, biosynthesis and redox balance in cancer cells. Cancer bioenergetics include, but are not limited to, the following topics:
- Mutational activation of metabolic enzymes in cancer;
- Epigenetic regulation of cancer biogenetics;
- Biogenetics regulated by oncogenes/tumor suppressor genes;
- Kinases/phosphatases in cancer biogenetics;
- Membrane transporters in cancer metabolism;
- New concepts in cancer bioenergetics;
- New tools to study cancer biogenetics;
- Other topics in cancer metabolism.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
