Natural Bioactives and Inflammation, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to our Special Issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS), entitled “Natural Bioactives and Inflammation, 2nd Edition”.

Inflammation is a key physiological process in tissue repair and immunity against infections, trauma, toxins, or allergic reactions. However, chronic inflammation can cause the development of diseases such as cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disease, neurological disease, and cancer. Bioactive compounds, such as polyphenols, omega fatty acids, etc., are molecules that present therapeutic potential by reducing inflammation, thereby decreasing the risk of chronic diseases. As inflammation regulation is one of the keys to longevity, by consuming these bioactive compounds, we could potentially increase both our health- and lifespan.

For this Special Issue, we want to collect recent research topics and current review articles, to report the latest updates on inflammation and how to modulate it using natural bioactive compounds.

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.
