Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Groundbreaking research and cutting-edge technologies have shed light on tumors’ complex and heterogeneous composition, highlighting the pivotal role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in cancer initiation, progression, metastasization, and immune escape. The investigation of the multifaceted bidirectional interactions between these two aspects has led to significant developments in cancer research. However, several aspects still remain unclear, necessitating innovative studies with unique approaches which could revolutionize the understanding of cancer mechanisms, and lay the foundations for novel therapeutic strategies targeted against TME components.
This Special Issue in Cancers titled ‘The Role of Tumor Microenvironment in Solid Tumors: New Developments in Cancer Research’ will try to draw a complete portrait of the current state of knowledge on TME, highlighting the pioneering findings that could have a promising translational application. We welcome original research articles, reviews (either systematic or discursive), and short communications with significant preliminary results.

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. Cancers is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2900 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.
