Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
The aim of this Special Issue is to cover the current status and future directions in the discovery and development of novel anti-angiogenesis strategies in Oncology. The Special Issue is aimed to cover preclinical and clinical steps involved in the discovery and development of anti-angiogenesis targets in cancer and to discuss mechanisms involved in the modulation of angiogenesis in relation to cancer therapy. FDA approved anti-angiogenesis agents in cancer therapeutics and limitations will be reviewed. Furthermore, the implications of Nanotechnology in expanding the utility of existing and new novel anti-angiogenesis strategies in cancer will also be reviewed.
Prof. Dr. Shaker A. Mousa
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.
