The role of autophagy and cellular senescence has been extensively investigated in various cancers either in tumor progression, migration, tumor microenvironment, or therapeutic effects. Autophagy is a self-regulated programmed cell degradation mechanism to recycle dysfunctional components and maintain cellular homeostasis, which is largely based on the observed degradation of mitochondria and other intra-cellular structures within lysosomes. Senescence is a remarkable cellular reprogramming mechanism that involves both epigenetic changes in gene expression and cellular remodeling. Recent studies and reports have confirmed that there is a strong relationship between senescence and autophagy in cancer. However, further investigation and experiments are needed to explore their roles and interplay in different cancers or therapeutic modalities.
The research topic aims to recruit contributions on tumor-related studies or integrative reviews in autophagy or cellular senescence either in human cancers or pre-clinical models.
This Research Topic is seeking Original articles/Reviews/Mini-reviews/Brief reports of clinical studies or experimental researches that examine.
- Autophagy-enabled senescence in different cancers.
- The role of autophagy in tumor development or tumor microenvironment.
- The mechanism of autophagy or senescence in different therapeutic agents/modalities.
-The clinical implications of autophagy/senescence in cancer progression,.
- The exploration between immune, autoimmune, and autophagy/senescence in cancer patients.
- New technique or model to explore the role of autophagy/senescence. Special attention will be given to innovative submissions that combine data science, basic experiments, and clinical results.
We therefore invite you to submit your latest original research or review articles to this special topic.
