Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, "Advances in Molecular Research of Kidney Disease", aims to showcase the latest breakthroughs in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying kidney diseases. We invite high-quality research that includes biomolecular experiments, focusing on novel insights into the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of kidney disorders. Areas of interest include molecular genetics, biomarkers, cellular signaling pathways, and innovative therapeutic approaches such as bioartificial kidneys, SGLT2 inhibitors, and targeted gene therapies. Clinical studies that incorporate molecular or biomolecular experiments are particularly welcome. By highlighting these advancements, we aim to advance our understanding of kidney disease and contribute to the development of more effective interventions, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
Dr. Andrea Angioi
Guest Editor
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.
