Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In light of the high prevalence of gynecological cancers and, consequently, the increasing disease burden experienced by women all over the world, there remains a pressing need for further research on novel therapies.
Over the years, there has emerged evidence to suggest that a deep understanding of molecular biology is essential for both the diagnosis and therapy of gynecological cancers, including cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, vaginal cancer, and vulvar cancer. In particular, new and reliable prognostic factors, as well as specific targets for new therapeutic approaches, are urgently required. Furthermore, insights into the molecular pathogeneses of these cancers could contribute to efforts to improve our understanding of the malignancies.
This Special Issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences on “Molecular Biology of Gynecological Cancers: From Bench to Bedside”, supervised by Dr. Bastian Czogalla (LMU Munich, Germany) and assisted by Dr. Anca Chelariu-Raicu （LMU Munich, Germany), aims at investigating all the molecular aspects of gynecological cancers. We welcome state-of-the-art original research articles, reviews, methods, hypotheses/theories, perspectives, opinions, and commentaries on this important topic. Data on the molecular mechanisms or pathophysiology of the disease are an essential requirement, and papers that contain only clinical trial reports/data will not be considered.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
