The best way to reduce the overall cancer burden is to prevent cancer through a healthy lifestyle, pharmacological strategies, or decreased exposure to environmental carcinogens. Molecular chemical carcinogenesis, identification and evaluation of carcinogenicity hazards, and precision prevention drug discovery have highlighted key cellular, genetic, and epigenetic mechanisms of carcinogenesis that can inform prevention strategies on multiple levels.
In this Research Topic, we propose to generate a collection of articles that discuss the main and newly-explored cellular, genetic, and epigenetic targets for cancer prevention, including the immune system. We aim to gain an in-depth understanding of cancer prevention from the molecular to the epidemiological consensus. In particular, these articles will focus on identified mechanisms in tumor initiation, promotion, and malignant transformation for precision prevention and environmental health.
We welcome Reviews, Original Research Articles as well as Perspectives. Areas to be covered in this research topic may include, but are not limited to: precision chemoprevention, immunoprevention.
In addition:
• Immune, genetic, or molecular factors that impact early carcinogenesis and malignant transformation.
• Diet, nutrition, physical activity, and cancer prevention.
• Molecular biology and epidemiology in chemical carcinogenesis.
• Identification and evaluation of carcinogenicity hazards.
Please note: manuscripts consisting solely of bioinformatics, computational analysis, or predictions of public databases which are not accompanied by validation (independent clinical or patient cohort, or biological validation in vitro or in vivo, which are not based on public databases) are not suitable for publication in this journal.
