Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the state of the art of cell biology in Italy. We invite research papers that will consolidate our understanding in this area. The Special Issue will publish full research articles and comprehensive reviews. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following research areas:
- OMICS: transcriptomics, genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, glycomics, lipidomics, interactomics, fluxomics, and biomics;
- Cell structure: organelles, cytoskeleton, cell membrane, capsule, flagella, etc.;
- Cell physiology: cell growth, metabolism, protein synthesis, division, movement of proteins, active/passive transport, intra- and extracellular signaling, adhesion, DNA repair, etc.;
- Cell movement and motility;
- Autophagy;
- Apoptosis;
- PANoptosis;
- Cell aging;
- Cell techniques: cell and tissue culture, isolation, and fractionation of cells, immunocytochemistry (ICC), in situ hybridization (ISH), transfection, and optogenetics;
- Cell growth and differentiation;
- Hematopoiesis and stem cells;
- Cancer stem cells;
- Genetic disorders;
- CAR-T cell research.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
