Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is supervised by Dr. Hanna Pawluk, Dr. Renata Kołodziejska, and assisted by our Topical Advisory Panel Member Rakesh B. Patel (University of IOWA).
Stroke is one of the most serious diseases, often leading to significant disability or death. Brain tissue damage during ischemic stroke and subsequent pathological processes are mediated by multiple molecular pathways that are modulated by inflammatory markers. Studying the mechanisms contributing to the development of hypoxia tolerance in cells and tissues may not only be of great theoretical importance but is also necessary to solve many problems in practical medicine. The analysis of biochemical parameters will allow us to understand how inflammation contributes to the progression of the stroke focus in the course of cerebral circulation disorders. This may be a valuable clue for modulating immune response mechanisms in order to limit damage to neural tissue after ischemia.
This Special Issue welcomes original papers and reviews dealing with the implications of inflammatory biomarkers on the diagnosis and prognosis of ischemic stroke.

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.
