Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, "A New Frontier in Cancer Invasion and Metastasis Research 2022", will collect research articles covering the molecular pathogenesis and clinical implications of cancer progression. The topics will include, but are not limited to: molecular cancer research, signaling targets underlying cancer migration and invasion, the regulation of the tumor microenvironment, and novel cancer drug development in animal models. To closely reflect the milieu of the cancer microenvironment, studies regarding clinical samples will be encouraged, including patient-derived xenograft animal models, biomarker analyses of patient plasma or other body fluids, and tumor-derived microRNA or extracellular vesicles. We also invite pulmonary oncologists and neuropathologists as Co-Editors to broaden the scope of the current issue. Please kindly note that purely clinical studies are out of the scope of this Special Issue. Submissions must include as much molecular biology research as possible.
