Advanced Research of Mitochondria-Targeted Antioxidants

Dear Colleagues,

Mitochondria-targeted antioxidants are promising drug agents. They are involved in both anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer processes in eukaryotes, and have antibacterial and antifungal properties. In addition, they are used for the targeted delivery of drugs to the mitochondria, which opens up new prospects for the use of mitochondria-targeted antioxidants in various fields of medicine. We look forward to receiving articles on anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer activities from experts in biochemistry, cell biology, mycology, immunology, and bioenergetics. We also expect to receive articles from experts in the field of anti-aging. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: new mitochondria-targeted antioxidants; new properties of mitochondria-targeted antioxidants; the penetration of mitochondria-targeted antioxidants to cells; mitochondria-targeted antioxidants as anti-aging agents; mitochondria-targeted antioxidants as anti-cancer agents; mitochondria-targeted antioxidants as anti-inflammatory agents; mitochondria-targeted antioxidants as anti-fungal agents; mitochondria-targeted antioxidants as anti-bacterial agents; mitochondria-targeted antioxidants as anti-biofilm agents; and mitochondria-targeted antioxidants as vectors for drug delivery.

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.
