Botulinum Toxins: New Uses in the Treatment of Diseases (Volume II)

Dear Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to announce a new Special Issue dedicated to the therapeutic applications of botulinum toxins. This Special Issue is configured as the continuation of the previous one entitled "Botulinum Toxins: New Uses in the Treatment of Diseases" of which it constitutes the second volume. The purpose of this Special Issue is to update the scientific community on the possible developments of new therapeutic applications of botulinum toxin, also considering the fact that, to date, the list of human pathologies in which botulinum toxin produces favorable effects is constantly growing. This Special Issue is open to any type of contribution, such as reviews, research articles, both in animal models and clinical studies, case reports, or off-label indications. Contributions that explain the mechanisms of action of botulinum toxins, in the various pathologies where they exert their therapeutic action, are also welcome.

Dr. Siro Luvisetto
Guest Editor
