Toxic Effects of Nanoparticles

Dear Colleagues,

The aim of this Special Issue in International Journal of Molecular Sciences is to present novel areas of research in order to advance our understanding of the toxicological mechanisms triggered by exposure to nanoparticles (incidental or engineered), and potential therapeutics or interventions for those exposed to nanoparticles.

We invite investigators working in all fields related to nanoparticles to submit original research articles or reviews describing and discussing recent advancements or developments in the field of nanoparticles toxicity, the underlying mechanisms of toxicity, and the nanoparticle components that may determine toxicity.

Research areas may include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Mechanisms of toxic effects following nanoparticle exposure (in vitro or in vivo); role of inflammation and oxidative stress.
• Nanoparticle components that may determine toxicity; the application of safe(r) using design guidelines to decrease toxicity.
• Human exposures to nanoparticles (incidental or engineered) and effects on health.
• Interventions or treatments to ameliorate nanoparticle exposure impacts.

Prof. Dr. Magnani is a scientist (Topical Advisory Panel in IJMS) who will assist Prof. Dr. Evelson in managing this Special Issue.

Prof. Dr. Pablo A. Evelson
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.
