Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS) will examine novel methodologies in cancer therapy, specifically highlighting the significance of autophagy and apoptosis in the progression and management of cancer. This study requests original research, reviews, short communications, and thorough evaluations of bioactive natural products, nanoparticle-mediated drug delivery approaches, and their potential applications in cancer therapy.
Furthermore, contributions investigating in silico techniques, network pharmacology, and bioinformatics to discover new therapeutic targets and pathways are strongly encouraged. This Special Issue’s main goal is to establish a forum for advanced research that connects molecular processes with practical uses in cancer treatment. Through the integration of research on natural products, precise drug delivery technologies, and computational methodologies, our objective is to promote the advancement of more efficient and focused cancer therapies. This Special Issue invites cross-disciplinary contributions that enrich our comprehension of these complex mechanisms and facilitate the development of innovative therapeutic approaches against cancer.

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.
