Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I hope this message finds you and those you hold dear safe and in good health during these challenging times.
I am reaching out to let you know that we are organizing a Special Issue on ‘EGF Receptor Trafficking Pathways: From Epithelial Cell Functions to Epithelial Carcinomas’ that we think you may be interested in contributing to.
Your expertise in the field will be a valuable contribution to this Special Issue. Apart from potential research articles that you might consider to submit, I encourage you and your co-workers to prepare a review on any basic or applied topic which could contribute to the advancement and understanding of physiological EGF receptor biology in polarized epithelial cells, its misappropriation in epithelial carcinomas, and the current state of therapeutic strategies for overcoming resistance to EGF receptor-targeted drugs.
We are looking forward to your positive reply to this call!
Stay safe and healthy.
Prof. Cathleen R. Carlin
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Cells is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
