Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The worldwide prevalence of atherosclerosis and associated diseases is growing on an epidemic scale. The early detection of atherosclerotic changes requires modern molecular genetic, biochemical, pathophysiological, and equipment studies, which enable a personalized approach to the choice of treatment.
Personalized medicine includes a range of approaches to healthcare based on factual data: from precise molecular diagnostics to predicting the onset or development of a disease on the basis of genetic research.
We are pleased to invite you to submit papers with the results of basic research on atherosclerosis aimed at improving the technologies for the prevention, diagnosis, risk assessment, and treatment of atherosclerosis from the standpoint of personalized medicine.
This Special Issue aims to familiarize physicians and researchers with the latest advances in the basic research of atherosclerosis from the standpoint of personalized medicine.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Experimental research in the field of atherosclerosis;
- Biochemical studies on atherosclerosis;
- Genomics, GWAS, and population genetics of atherosclerosis;
- Atherosclerosis epigenetics and microRNAs;
- Hereditary dyslipidemias;
- Proteomic investigation of atherosclerosis;
- Etiopathogenetic aspects of atherosclerosis;
- Lipids, lipoproteins, and apolipoproteins;
- Macrophages and atherosclerosis;
- Vascular-wall remodeling and atherosclerosis;
- Inflammation and atherosclerosis;
- Oxidative stress and atherosclerosis;
- Immunology of atherosclerosis;
- Climatic–geographical and ethnic features of atherosclerosis development.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Journal of Personalized Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
