Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The preservation of fertility is critical to maintaining successful pregnancies in both men and women, and the study of fertility is essential to enhance reproduction. Recently, infertility is increasing due to genetic or environmental factors that cause the abnormal development of reproductive organs or the death of germ cells. Therefore, it is crucial for drug development to identify the exact elements that cause the abnormal development of reproductive organs and toxicity, and to identify the associated molecular mechanisms. Additionally, researchers are currently in the process of developing biomedicine that actively uses microbiomes that coexist with humans on a molecular level; thus, research should focus on the relationship between intrauterine microbes and embryo implantation ability. Therefore, the study of molecular mechanisms in reproductive biology could provide better knowledge to overcome infertility associated with the protection and development of the reproductive system. For this Special Issue, we invite potential researchers working on revealing the causes of infertility and solving this problem by investigating the molecular biology of the development, differentiation, and toxicity of reproductive organs.

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. Current Issues in Molecular Biology 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 2200 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.
