Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Molecular endocrinology involves all the aspects of the hormone action at the cellular level. Thus, this study focuses on the subjects related to the genetic, epigenetic, biochemical, cellular, and molecular aspects of endocrinology in general. Molecular endocrinology, by providing us with information about the very basics of both extracellular and intracellular signals, their interactions with specific receptors, gene expression, or any mechanisms related to the action of hormones, influences our understanding of endocrine diseases facilitating further research.
In the following special issue, we would like to welcome original papers, meta-analyses, systematic, as well as narrative reviews related to molecular and cellular endocrinology with regard to thyroid cancer specifically. We encourage the authors to submit the most updated papers related to the research about the causes, as well as novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches towards thyroid cancer. The aim of this special issue is to provide a possibility to share the most recent knowledge about molecular endocrinology that provides a better understanding of the pathophysiology of thyroid cancer.

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.
