Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is well established that basal levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are essential for cell survival. It is also well known that severe oxidative stress leads to oxidative damage and cell death. Importantly, a moderate level of oxidative stress induced by a variety of stressors, such as exercise, or a modulation and inhibition of ROS/RNS by dietary ingestion of various fruits and vegetables can yield significant beneficial effects on adaptive cellular responses to oxidative challenges. We invite you to submit your latest research findings or a review article to this Special Issue, “Antioxidants and Oxidative Stress in Active, Diseased, and Sedentary Individuals”, which will bring together current research concerning the ability of naturally occurring plant antioxidants and bioactive compounds, such as anthocyanins and bioflavonoids, to combat the adverse consequences of exercise, inactivity, disease, and the aging process. This research can include both in vitro and in vivo studies relating to any of the following topics: structure/function of plant bioactives; regulation of endogenous antioxidant responses in vivo by bioactives; and the role of plant bioactives in signaling, metabolism, cell cycle, gene regulation, cellular stress, and disease.

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. Antioxidants 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 2900 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.
