Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), one of the leading causes of death worldwide, are a broad spectrum of serious health conditions including heart disease, hypertension, atherosclerosis, aneurysm, etc. Molecular diagnosis and targeted therapy represent cutting-edge approaches in the management of CVDs. These approaches aim to improve the precision, efficacy, and personalization of treatment, moving beyond traditional methods that often adopt a one-size-fits-all strategy. This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advances in molecular diagnosis and targeted therapies in the management of CVDs.
In this Special Issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, we invite authors to submit original research articles, reviews, and perspectives that delve into the integrative approaches and targeted therapies in CVDs. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, integrative approaches that combine genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and other ‘omics’ data and targeted therapies, including gene therapy, monoclonal antibodies and biologics, small-molecule inhibitors, RNA-based therapies, cell-based therapies, etc.
By assembling a diverse collection of high-quality articles, this Special Issue aims to advance our comprehensive understanding of molecular diagnosis and targeted therapy in CVDs, offering hope for more effective and personalized treatments.

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.
