Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanozymes, new artificial enzymes, have attracted attention in biomedical applications due to their low cost, high stability and variable, multienzyme-like properties. Recently, efforts have been devoted to developing nanozymes for diagnosis and therapy. In particular, nanozymes have often been designed with unique optical, electrical, magnetic, thermal and acoustic properties to synergize the multienzyme-like activities for enhanced theranostics, including anti-tumor abilities, anti-bacterial abilities, for orthopaedic diseases, and in tissue regenerative medicine, etc. Meanwhile, multifunctional and high-catalytic activity nanozymes have obtained by changing their size, structure, doping and so on. Based on great achievements in nanozymes research, we proposed a Special Issue that will focus on nanozyme-based theranostics, including, but not limited to, the design of nanozyme structures and the exploration of catalytic activity and applications. This Special Issue will focus on past research, current research hotpots and future research directions. Therefore, we welcome your contributions to this Special Issue in the form of original research articles, short communications and reviews, focusing on nanozyme-based theranostics.

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. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
