Cancer remains as a leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for approximately 10 million deaths in 2020. Cancer develops through four steps, including: initiation, promotion, progression and metastization, and generally it arises from multiple mutations in several genes involved in cells’ growth. Considering this, and the great diversity of cancers, researchers are actively investing their efforts to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying this disease. Unveiling these mechanisms will for sure allow to improve drug delivery and develop new treatments, with a positive impact in survival rates of cancer patients.
