BBA Reviews on Cancer covers the whole field of the biology and biochemistry of cancer, emphasizing oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, growth-related jail cell cycle command signalling, carcinogenesis mechanisms, cell transformation, immunologic control mechanisms, genetics of human (mammalian) cancer, control of cell proliferation, genetic and molecular command of organismic development, rational anti-tumor drug design. In short, the journal presents critical invited reviews on new developments in cancer investigation at the molecular level.
Types of paper
Types of papers published: mini-reviews, full reviews.
Reviews and mini-reviews are typically commissioned past the Editors. All Review Articles should be authoritative, country-of-the-art accounts of the selected research field, be of high interest, balanced and accurate. Beyond summaries of important scientific developments and ideas, authors are encouraged to identify and discuss how the field may be impacted or develop in the hereafter, including insights that may exist of significance to the scientific community. All BBA Review Articles undergo rigorous and total peer review, in the same way as regular inquiry papers, and publication cannot be guaranteed.The number of co-authors of review articles is limited to five and each author is expected to make a substantial contribution to the writing of the manuscript.
Reviews (total-length) should provide a comprehensive analysis on topics of broad interest to the journal'southward readership. Reviews should be thorough, sufficiently critical and arrange unlike points of view. They should stand out from other recently published reviews on the same theme. Although Reviews are not of any stock-still length, they are ordinarily 6,000 to 10,000 words in length (excluding references and effigy legends), include an abstract that is no more than 150 words, upwardly to 100 references (should include titles), and a minimum of 3 figures/illustrations.
Mini-reviews are succinct, focused updates of the literature related to a question of current interest in the scientific customs (typically from the concluding 2-3 years). Subjects covered in Mini-reviews are generally narrower, either in scope or depth, than those covered in full-length Reviews. They should highlight/clarify/discuss recent and of import findings and include the author's viewpoint on how the subject relates to the current state of the field. Mini-reviews are unremarkably 2000 to 4000 words in length (excluding references and figure legends), include an abstract that is no more than 100 words, up to 50 references (should include titles), and i to three figures/illustrations.

Annotation: Delight practice non convert the .docx template to some other file type. Writer signatures are non required. If there are no interests to declare, please cull: 'Declarations of interest: none' in the template. More than information.
Submission declaration and verification
Submission of an article implies that the piece of work described has not been published previously (except in the course of an abstract, a published lecture or academic thesis, meet 'Multiple, redundant or concurrent publication' for more than information), that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, that its publication is canonical by all authors and tacitly or explicitly by the responsible government where the work was carried out, and that, if accustomed, it will not exist published elsewhere in the same form, in English or in whatsoever other language, including electronically without the written consent of the copyright-holder.

Content should make no assumptions about the beliefs or commitments of whatever reader; incorporate null which might imply that one private is superior to another on the grounds of age, gender, race, ethnicity, civilization, sexual orientation, inability or health condition; and use inclusive language throughout. Authors should ensure that writing is gratuitous from bias, stereotypes, slang, reference to ascendant civilisation and/or cultural assumptions. We advise to seek gender neutrality by using plural nouns ("clinicians, patients/clients") as default/wherever possible to avoid using "he, she," or "he/she." We recommend avoiding the use of descriptors that refer to personal attributes such as historic period, gender, race, ethnicity, civilisation, sexual orientation, disability or health condition unless they are relevant and valid.

This journal follows the recommendations of the STRENDA (Standards for Reporting Enzymology Data) Committee of the Beilstein-Institut for the reporting of kinetic and equilibrium binding information. Detailed guidelines can be found at (http://www.strenda.org/documents.html) or in this pdf file.
All reports of kinetic and bounden data must include a clarification of the identity of the catalytic or binding entity (enzyme, protein, nucleic acid or other molecule). This information should include the origin or source of the molecule, its purity, limerick, and other characteristics such equally post-translational modifications, mutations, and whatsoever modifications made to facilitate expression or purification. The assay methods and verbal experimental weather condition of the assay must exist fully described if it is a new analysis or provided as a reference to previously published work, with or without modifications. The temperature, pH and pressure (if other than atmospheric) of the assay must always be included, even if previously published.
