Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of endocrine pathology is wide and endocrine tumors represent a heterogeneous set of neoplasms characterized by a high degree of complexity. They may arise in the thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary, adrenal gland, pancreas, intestine, lung, etc.
Recent breakthroughs in the molecular biology of endocrine tumors have been essential to the understanding of these neoplasms, and new classifications that take into account molecular parameters have been introduced.
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of recent developments in the field of endocrine pathology and in understanding the biology and molecular oncology of endocrine and neuroendocrine tumors and their impact on diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy.
Contributions on all aspects of endocrine tumours in the form of original research articles, concise reviews, or shorter perspective articles are particularly welcome. Articles with mechanistic and functional insights from a cellular and molecular biological perspective are especially appreciated.
Dr. Antonio De Leo
Guest Editor
