Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Digestive cancers are a group of diseases that affect millions, annually causing numerous deaths. Studies published in recent years identified the important role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of all types of cancer, including those of the digestive tract.
In this Special Issue “The Role of Inflammation in Gastroenterological Malignancies”, we invite you to publish your original research articles, clinical studies, literature reviews, meta-analyses, and clinical cases dealing with the role of inflammation in tumor pathogenesis and disease spread in digestive cancers. Papers can discuss esophageal, stomach, small intestine, colon, and rectal cancers, including research on inflammatory markers and other useful biomarkers in the diagnosis and prognosis of digestive cancers, the development of new therapeutic targets and new molecules in oncological treatment, and alternatives to standard treatment.
This Special Issue aims to help with the development of new pathogenic mechanisms in digestive cancers, further studying the well-known pathogenic mechanisms, while also helping with the development of new diagnosis methods and new biomarkers for early diagnosis, to establish the most accurate prognosis and, finally, to achieve more effective therapeutic methods.
