Cancer Cell Biology 2026
This collection highlights papers focused on the cellular mechanisms underlying tumorigenesis, cancer progression, and therapy responses. These studies provide new insights into epigenetic programming or migration of breast cancer cells, as well as mechanisms underlying treatment resistance in leukemia. It features new work on extracellular vesicles, impaired DNA damage repair, the regulation of telomere maintenance, and micronuclei defects. Covering a broad range of cancer cell-associated topics, we hope this collection will engage researchers from various fields of cancer cell biology research.
