Description
The Journal of Carcinogenesis is a peer-reviewed, open-access scientific journal published by Wolters Kluwer Health. It serves as an international platform for researchers, clinicians, and scholars to share innovative studies that advance the understanding of cancer development and prevention. Established to bridge the gap in knowledge regarding the molecular and biochemical mechanisms underlying carcinogenesis, the journal emphasizes the need for multidisciplinary research that integrates biology, chemistry, genetics, and environmental sciences. With editorial leadership by Dr. Gopala Kovvali and support from a global editorial board, the journal aims to promote timely dissemination of original research, reviews, and experimental findings that contribute to the global fight against cancer.
Scope of the Journals
The Journal of Carcinogenesis focuses on the complex biological, chemical, and environmental processes involved in cancer initiation, progression, and prevention. Core areas of interest include physical and chemical carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, mechanisms of DNA damage and repair, genetic and metabolic factors influencing cancer development, and the action of carcinogens and chemopreventive agents. The journal also welcomes studies exploring nutrition, molecular genetics, and metabolism as they relate to carcinogenic pathways, as well as epidemiological research that enhances understanding of environmental carcinogens and their health impacts.
In addition, the journal actively encourages submissions that provide insights into cancer prevention strategies and novel therapeutic approaches. By fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and publishing high-quality, evidence-based studies, the Journal of Carcinogenesis aims to advance global cancer research and support the translation of laboratory discoveries into effective preventive and therapeutic interventions.
