Advances in Anti-Aging Treatment Development, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Inflamm-aging is the term used to refer to the chronic low-grade inflammation that develops during aging and accompanies both the development of chronic diseases (e.g., cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, neurodegeneration) and functional decline in older adults. Derangements in cellular quality control systems are responsible for the accrual of intracellular “waste” (e.g., protein aggregates, damaged mitochondria, lipofuscin) and represent candidate mechanisms for the development of inflamm-aging. Indeed, many of these molecules have pro-inflammatory natures and can be released at the systemic level unless efficiently cleared. The mechanisms that regulate the displacement of these molecules are among the processes that must be tackled for the development of anti-inflammatory strategies. Additional molecular pathways that become dysregulated during aging may actively contribute to local and systemic inflammation and thus warrant investigation.

This Special Issue aims to gather contributions from researchers in the field of biogerontology and geroscience who are investigating anti-aging remedies and personalized anti-inflammatory interventions to extend one’s health- and lifespan.

We invite you to submit your latest original research or review articles to 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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
