Cardiovascular Diseases: From Molecular Mechanisms to Innovative Therapeutics

Dear Colleagues,

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have collectively remained the leading causes of death worldwide and substantially contribute to loss of health and excess health system costs. Therefore, numerous studies focused on etiopathogenesis, molecular diagnostic methods, and therapeutic efforts have recently been conducted.

This Special Issue on “Cardiovascular Diseases: From Molecular Mechanisms to Innovative Therapeutics” will cover a selection of the most recent scientific studies and current review articles in the field of translational and basic research dedicated to the discovery of biomarkers, molecular, and/or cellular mechanisms to be exploited as therapeutic targets or molecular diagnostic tools to improve the outcome of patients with cardiovascular disease. Experimental papers, up-to-date review articles, and commentaries are all welcome.

Dr. Carmine Siniscalchi
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
