Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oncology research continues to reveal the molecular signatures that define tumor characteristics and behavior, with the focus increasingly shifting toward the complex molecular pathways implicated in tumorigenesis, cancer cell proliferation, inflammation and angiogenesis, tissue infiltration, and dissemination to distant sites. New research should focus on better investigating the molecular mechanisms that promote cancer and on the development of efficient therapeutic and pharmacological interventions. For this Special Issue, we welcome research and review articles focusing on the diverse molecular mechanisms implicated in different steps of carcinogenesis, which could serve as therapeutic targets.
Dr. Giovanna Casili
Guest Editor
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.
