Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The global incidence of cancer has been rising steadily, posing significant challenges to healthcare systems worldwide. Among the myriad factors influencing cancer development and progression, diet plays a pivotal role in modulating tumor biology and determining clinical outcomes. Nutritional interventions hold promise for influencing tumor growth, metabolism, and immune responses, thereby presenting potential strategies for cancer prevention, management, and survivorship. However, the specific dietary approaches that yield effective outcomes remain an area of active research and debate.
This Special Issue seeks to compile cutting-edge research on the role of dietary interventions in cancer biology, metabolic reprogramming, and the enhancement of patient quality of life. We invite submissions of original research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and narrative reviews that explore the relationships between dietary patterns, nutrients, and cancer prevention or treatment. Studies on personalized nutrition in oncology are particularly welcome.
