Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Molecular Pathology publishes research on the molecular mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis and diagnosis. Articles focus on genetic and epigenetic alterations in various cancers, including prostate, endometrial, colorectal, and cholangiocarcinoma, and their implications for treatment and prognosis. The journal also covers research on biomarkers, such as microRNAs and gene copy number variants, for disease detection and therapeutic decision-making, as well as the role of the microbiome and cellular processes like entosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in disease.
