Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Genitourinary cancers encompass some of the most common solid tumors and have high rates of morbidity and mortality. Although much progress has been made in understanding the underlying tumorigenesis and progression of these malignancies, emerging evidence is focused on the characterization of further molecular mechanisms and novel molecular markers associated with early detection and predicting the response of therapeutic strategies. Finally, a great interest has been on the development of new drugs; some recent in vitro and in vivo studies reported that phytochemicals derived from plants have shown promise in discovering new anticancer treatments, which are both safe and effective. This Special Issue, “Molecular Research on Genitourinary Cancers”, welcomes original research and review articles with a focus on, but not limited to, the molecular and mechanistic basis for genitourinary cancers onset and progression, molecular markers, and the development of new drugs.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
