Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Reactive oxygen species and free radicals lead to genotoxic effects and mutations. These cascade effects play a pivotal role in tumor development and tumor immunological response. After exposure to exogenous and endogenous factors, DNA damage and repair response start inside the cells. Various pathways like mismatch repair (MMR) pathway, non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway, nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway, base excision repair (BER) pathway, and the homologous recombination (HR) pathway are activated. Moreover, various signaling pathways are also involved in DNA damage and repair, and can be used as biomarkers for the early diagnosis and treatment of various cancers, e.g., androgen receptor signaling pathway, hippo signaling, and HGF/Met pathway. All these factors, pathways, and mechanisms play an important role in the diagnosis, prevention, and therapeutic applications for cancer treatment. Therefore, it is important to explore and study biomarkers related to the oxidative stress, and DNA damage and repair involved in cancer diagnosis and treatment.
The aim of this Special Issue is to publish high-quality original research and review articles about the role of redox homeostasis in cancer biology, Epigenetic regulation of cancer, biomarkers for diagnosis of tumors, Tumor microenvironment, cytogenesis in tumor microenvironment and the role of various biological biomarkers in tumor immunology.
