This journal focuses on the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying cancer development, progression, and therapeutic resistance. Research investigates genetic alterations, signaling pathways, the tumor microenvironment, and metabolic vulnerabilities in various cancer types. Studies also explore the development and efficacy of targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and combination treatments, often utilizing preclinical models and patient-derived samples.
