Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The cell cycle, a fundamental process within every organism, holds paramount importance in maintaining tissue homeostasis throughout growth and development. Precise control of the cell cycle is crucial, as any aberrations can lead to abnormal development and various diseases, including cancer. The highly conserved Hippo pathway emerges as a pivotal player in the regulation of organ size, tissue equilibrium, and cancer development. Recent studies have indicated the involvement of the Hippo pathway in cell cycle regulation in various ways. Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway exacerbates the loss of cell cycle control, thereby promoting oncogenic processes. However, how the Hippo pathway influences cell cycle progression is still not fully understood.
This Special Issue will aim to understanding how the Hippo pathway modulates the cell cycle in the molecular basis of cancer development, drug resistance, and organ development. This Special Issue could have far-reaching implications for potential targeted therapeutic strategies and the development of innovative anticancer therapeutics.

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. Cells is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
