Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiovascular and metabolic diseases are disorders affecting the heart, blood vessels, as well as chemical processes within the body. They are the result of the disturbance of genetic, environmental, and socioeconomic factors and one of the causes of death worldwide. Early detection of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases and elucidation of the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved are fundamental in preventing, intervening with, and monitoring their progression.
The current Special Issue on “Recent Advances in Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases” will embrace up-to-date overviews of cellular and molecular biomarkers and pathogenic signaling pathways as potential targets for the development of effective therapeutic and monitoring strategies for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.
Therefore, this Special Issue will provide a comprehensive approach to the detection and investigation of cardiovascular complications derived from metabolic disorders, such as dyslipidemia and diabetes, with a view to discovering new therapies that are expected to improve patients’ quality of life. In this way, the future of preventing and treating cardiovascular and metabolic diseases can be reshaped.
Various forms of manuscripts, including reviews, original research articles, communications, and commentaries, are welcomed.
Dr. Adriana Georgescu
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. Biomolecules 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 2700 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.
