Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on cancer research, particularly the role of the immune system, cellular plasticity, and therapeutic interventions. Articles explore how aging impacts antitumor immunity and immunotherapy outcomes, and how epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity influences breast cancer progression and treatment resistance. The journal also examines the involvement of the microbiome, amino acid metabolism, and specific molecular targets like beta-catenin and LGR5 in tumorigenesis and therapeutic strategies. Antibody-drug conjugates and neoantigen-based immunotherapies are highlighted as key treatment modalities.
