Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is well documented that high dietary kitchen salt (NaCl) intake is a major risk factor in the development of hypertension and, consequently, multiorgan damage. Importantly, a high salt diet impairs endothelial function, even without changes in blood pressure, leading to impaired endothelium-dependent responses to various stimuli, and thus contributing to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The effect of a high salt diet is mediated by increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and decreased antioxidative balance, as well as changes in endothelial cell structure (such as stiffening or glycocalix modification). A high salt diet may be considered as an early independent risk factor for low-grade vascular inflammation, leading to the development of atherosclerosis. However, there is more evidence on the possibility of counteracting the noxious effects of a high salt diet by dietary intervention and physical exercise, thus opening a field for new experimental and controlled clinical studies.
We invite you to submit your latest research findings or review articles to this Special Issue, which will bring together current research concerning high salt diets and oxidative stress in both normal processes and diseased states. This research can include both in vitro and in vivo studies in animal models and human participants, relating to any of the following topics: alteration of mechanisms of endothelial function and a high salt diet, inflammation and oxidative stress caused by a high salt diet, cellular and molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress and antioxidative balance altered by high salt diet, epigenetic effects of a high dietary salt intake, cellular signaling pathways altered by a high salt diet, pathophysiology of cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases in relation to oxidative stress and a high salt diet.
We look forward to your contribution.

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. 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.
- 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.
