Oncotarget

Oncotarget (a primarily oncology-focused, peer-reviewed, open access journal) aims to maximize research impact through insightful peer-review; eliminate borders between specialties by linking different fields of oncology, cancer research and biomedical sciences; and foster application of basic and clinical science.

Its scope is unique. The term "oncotarget" encompasses all molecules, pathways, cellular functions, cell types, and even tissues that can be viewed as targets relevant to cancer as well as other diseases. The term was introduced in the inaugural Editorial, Introducing Oncotarget.

As of January 1, 2022, Oncotarget has shifted to a continuous publishing model. Papers will now be published continuously within yearly volumes in their final and complete form and then quickly released to Pubmed.

This article has been retracted: Multiple internal duplications of western blot images illustrating the data of different experiments have been discovered throughout Figure 3C. In addition, Figure 3C also contains blots images from Figure 2A in an earlier published paper [1]. Therefore, with the agreement of all authors, the Scientific Integrity office at Oncotarget has decided to retract this paper.
