Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We invite submissions for a Special Issue focused on exploring breakthroughs in intestinal mucosal repair and regeneration. This issue aims to showcase cutting-edge research on the mechanisms, treatment and management of intestinal mucosal injury. The intestinal mucosa is essential for nutrient absorption and immune defense, and its damage can lead to severe health issues. We seek contributions that delve into the cellular and molecular pathways of mucosal repair, innovative therapeutic strategies, the role of the microbiota, and the application of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Submissions from various disciplines, including gastroenterology, immunology and bioengineering, are welcome. Original research, reviews and short communications that expand our understanding and improve clinical outcomes for patients with mucosal damage are encouraged. Authors should submit an abstract for initial consideration, with selected manuscripts undergoing a peer review. Join us in advancing the field of intestinal mucosal repair.

Dr. Lixia He
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. Biomedicines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
