Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mitochondria are critical for cancer cell survival and cancer progression. Various cellular signaling related to cancer growth and progression are regulated by mitochondria. Therefore, targeting mitochondria provides new therapeutic options for the treatment and management of cancer. In this Special Issue, we will elaborate on the various types of cellular signaling related to mitochondrial biology and function in cancer. The topics for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to: the mitochondrial regulation of cell death signaling in cancer, mitochondrial dynamics in cancer, mitochondrial stress response in cancer, mitochondrial autophagy and cancer, mitochondrial biogenesis and cancer, anterograde and retrograde signaling in cancer, mitochondrial metabolism in cancer, the role of mitochondrial DNA in cancer, oxidative phosphorylation and reactive oxygen species, and mitochondria and immunotherapy in cancer.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
