The incidence of thyroid cancer has increased over the past 3 to 4 decades. Nonetheless, the mortality from thyroid cancer has remained stable. The thyroid gland may develop nodules encompassing several types of cell proliferation, from frankly benign to very aggressive forms with many intermediate challenging variants. For this reason, there is growing interest in evaluating thyroid nodules from many points of view, from the clinical to the molecular aspects, in the search for innovative diagnostic and prognostic parameters. The aim of this Special Issue was to provide an overview of recent developments in understanding the biology and molecular oncology of thyroid tumors of follicular cell derivation and their repercussions on the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy. The contributions of many experts in the field made up a Special Issue of Cancers journal, that focusing on different aspects, including mechanistic and functional facets, gives the status of art of clinical and biological perspectives of thyroid cancer.

This Special Issue of International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS) covers one of the most intriguing and emerging fields in terms of molecular oncology and uro-oncologic research efforts over the recent years, namely urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB), as well as urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract (UTUC). A total of 8 articles published in this Special Issue highlight the current progress in molecular oncology and cancer genetics in UCB, including a wide range of research topics, such as FGFR-inhibitors, sarcopenia in UCB, molecular predictors of response following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, exercise cardiac training impacts in the murine UCB model, Obatoclax, tropomyosins as potential biomarkers, immunotherapeutic approaches, as well as a transcriptional analysis of immunohistochemically defined UCB-subgroups. Find a brief summary of the respective articles below.
