Special Collections
Endocrine-Related Cancer publishes basic, translational and clinical research and reviews on the interplay between hormones and cancer, and related topics. In response to the broad scope of the journal, the editorial team have decided to create a series of special collections, bringing together the latest published content on a specific type of article or topic from the journal.
Collections open for submission

Advances and future directions in pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma
This collection will highlight the most recent advances and perspectives of the pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma research field, with renown experts commenting on the latest research related to genetics, metabolomics, nuclear medicine, preclinical models and mitochondrial dysfunction.
100 years of Insulin and Glucagon
This collection celebrates the discovery of Insulin in 1922 and Glucagon in 1923, and is dedicated to hyperplasias and neoplasias associated with the hypersecretion of these two hormones, or associated with pathway defects in the synthesis or secretion of either one of these two hormones.
Growth Hormone in Endocrine Cancers
This collection will highlight the involvement of Growth Hormone in a variety of cancers, with experts commenting on the latest research related to the mechanism(s) whereby GH influences cancer growth, the combination of GH antagonists and chemotherapy in the treatment of cancer, the effect of diet on cancer, GH’s autocrine/paracrine/endocrine action and cancer, as well as several other current topics.
