Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Understanding the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying bone metabolism is essential for unraveling the complexities of bone-related diseases and developing targeted therapeutic interventions. By investigating the molecular pathways involved in bone homeostasis, researchers can uncover novel biomarkers, identify therapeutic targets, and devise personalized treatment strategies. Moreover, elucidating the molecular basis of bone disorders contributes to the broader field of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering, paving the way for innovative approaches in bone regeneration and repair. Harnessing the power of molecular advances in this field not only expands our knowledge of bone biology but also has the potential to improve patient outcomes and quality of life for individuals affected by bone disorders.
This Special Issue aims to delve into cutting-edge molecular-level knowledge pertaining to advanced research and conditions related to bone biology. Together, we aim to gather leading experts from the field to drive forward new advancements. We eagerly invite you to share your research findings and insights in this Special Issue, welcoming contributions from various perspectives, including, but not limited to, bone metabolism, molecular biology, molecular mechanisms, and drug development for bone-related disorders. We look forward to your scholarly contributions, and if you intend to submit a research paper to our Special Issue, kindly ensure it is submitted within the specified deadline. We highly anticipate your active participation, contributing to the successful publication of our Special Issue.
Dr. Hyuk-Sang Jung

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.
