Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Antioxidant systems are a combination of molecules, complexes and biochemical processes that have the purpose of protecting the cells of our body from oxidative insults that can be generated, such as superoxide anions, chloride radicals or hydroxyl radicals. Such molecules can promote the development or accentuation of various diseases, such as aging, heart disease, cancer or some neurodegenerative diseases. In this context, what we introduce directly from our diets is becoming increasingly important. In fact, research shows that we can absorb substances with high antioxidant power from our current food intake, which has a great biological impact on our body. Such molecules, once absorbed in the circulation, can directly or indirectly change the balance between antioxidant and prooxidant systems. We invite you to submit your latest original research or review to this Special Issue, in which you highlight the potential role of diet and natural compounds that are absorbed through the diet in fighting against diseases in which one of the triggers is oxidative stress. It is advisable that original work be carried out using in vitro and in vivo experimental models, specifying the molecular and biochemical pathways that are involved in the regulation of antioxidant systems.

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.
