Endocrine Tumors: Genetics, Genomics, and Molecular Pathogenesis
This special issue belongs to the section "Molecular Genetics and Genomics".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Endocrine tumors are complex, multiorgan diseases that manifest as part of a more complex syndrome and require a multidisciplinary approach. Recent years have witnessed significant improvements in our understanding of the onset, biological and physiological behavior and genetic basis of these tumors. Along with increasingly specific molecular diagnosis, this has opened the possibility of early diagnosis, improved follow-up, and the development of new therapeutic strategies.
With this Special Issue of IJMS, we invite submissions of unpublished manuscripts aimed at providing a cutting-edge overview of these heterogeneous, often malignant tumors. Papers on the latest advances in high-throughput genetic diagnosis, medical management and translational approaches, but also clinical/pure model submissions with biomolecular experiments are welcomed.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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-anonymized 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.
