Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiovascular disease remains a major medical burden throughout most of the world. Despite the underlying complexities involved, development of novel strategies for treating cardiovascular diseases, encompassing abnormalities of the heart and blood vessels, relies strongly on the identification of cellular and molecular mechanisms for treating these disorders. This represents a major challenge for researchers. This Special Issue of Molecules will address the complex fundamental problems underlying cardiovascular disease as they relate to both prevention and treatment. We welcome manuscripts encompassing multifaceted aspects of cardiovascular disease including physiology, pharmacology, and biochemistry with particular emphasis on cellular and molecular phenomena. Both comprehensive experimental studies and review articles will be considered for this Special Issue.
Prof. Dr. Morris Karmazyn
