Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Breast cancer occurs when carcinogens cause breast epithelial cells to grow uncontrollably. It is one of the most prevalent cancers in the world and the most common type of malignant tumor in women. Fortunately, significant advancements have been made in breast cancer research, improving the success rate of treatment. Using the commonality between breast cancer experimental animal models and human breast cancer in terms of tumor molecular characteristics and biological behavior to study the pathogenesis of various breast cancers and the development of new therapeutic drugs has been particularly helpful. In addition, molecular and cell biology research also contributes to increasing our understanding of breast cancer, leading to more effective diagnosis and treatment options.
In this Special Issue, we aim to collect the latest advances in the study of breast cancer biology, covering mechanisms, diagnosis, regulations, treatment and other related aspects.

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. Biology is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
