Cell Insight publishes research on molecular mechanisms underlying biological processes and diseases. Articles explore topics such as viral infection and host response, including mechanisms of viral entry and immune evasion, as well as the role of host factors like interferon signaling and specific proteins in antiviral defense. The journal also covers cancer biology, focusing on tumor immune evasion, therapeutic strategies like immunotherapy and small molecule interventions, and the role of metabolites and epigenetic regulation in cancer progression. Additionally, research on cellular processes including gene transcription, DNA damage and repair, lipid metabolism, and the formation and function of biomolecular condensates are featured.
