Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are interconnected pathologies with shared molecular underpinnings, including metabolic dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction. Recent advances in molecular biology, genetics, and systems biology have unveiled intricate mechanisms driving diabetes-associated cardiovascular complications, from alterations in lipid metabolism to epigenetic modifications and oxidative stress pathways.
This Special Issue, Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease in the New Era, invites original research and review articles exploring fundamental biological mechanisms underlying diabetic CVD. We welcome studies investigating molecular signaling networks, emerging biomarkers, metabolic reprogramming, vascular remodeling, and immune dysregulation in the diabetic heart and vasculature. Additionally, contributions leveraging cutting-edge technologies such as single-cell sequencing, transcriptomics, and computational modeling used to elucidate disease progression are highly encouraged.
By fostering research at the intersection of diabetes and cardiovascular pathophysiology, this Special Issue aims to advance our mechanistic understanding and pave the way for future translational breakthroughs. We look forward to your valuable contributions that will enhance knowledge in this rapidly evolving field.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Biology 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 2700 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.
