Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Changes in the cellular microenvironment can occur regardless of diet, environment, intestinal flora imbalance, and the abnormal growth of tumor cells caused by innate genes. In particular, different types of tumor cells have specific metabolites and regulatory pathways. This Special Issue welcomes research on the mechanisms underlying the growth and metabolism of tumor cells, as well as studies on the regulation of metabolism with tumor therapy.

Dr. Chan-Yen Kuo

Malignant tumors remain one of the most significant global health challenges and contribute to high mortality rates across various cancer types. The complex nature of these tumors requires multifaceted diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. This review explores current advancements in diagnostic methods, including molecular imaging, biomarkers, and liquid biopsies. It also delves into the evolution of therapeutic strategies, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and novel targeted therapies such as immunotherapy and gene therapy. Although significant progress has been made in the understanding of cancer biology, the future of oncology lies in the integration of precision medicine, improved diagnostic tools, and personalized therapeutic approaches that address tumor heterogeneity. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of cancer diagnostics and treatments while highlighting emerging trends and challenges that lie ahead. Full article
