Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on advances in the underlying molecular mechanisms in the development and progression of type 2 diabetes from prediabetes and their interplay with obesity. It also welcomes articles on the molecular mechanisms which underpin the development and evolution of both macrovascular complications, including cardiovascular disease, dyslipidemia, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, as well as the microvascular complications of retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy.
As the Special Issue “Molecular Diagnostic and Therapeutic Advances of Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity” was successful, we reopen this new Special Issue topic in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (ISSN 1422-0067, IF 5.6, JCR Category Q1) and focus on prediabetes and their interplay with obesity. For this Special Issue, original and review articles addressing the molecular basis of novel biomarkers as well as therapeutic options in the management of type 2 diabetes and its complications are also considered in this Special Issue.

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.
