Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The occurrence of tissue injuries, which can be produced in various ways, requires the engagement of targeted tissue repair and regeneration mechanisms that are specific and necessary for the replacement and renewal of altered tissue. The processes of tissue regeneration and repair involve the co-optation and integration of complex cellular processes, such as cellular signaling, the migration of the necessary cell populations, their proliferation, the formation of the extracellular matrix, and the management of the distribution of energy reserves and substance reserves. Humans have a particularly heterogeneous regeneration mechanism depending on the damaged tissue, the energy requirements and metabolic rate as a function of age, or various associated pathological conditions and the therapeutic interventions performed. The knowledge of the molecular pathways involved in these processes has led to the discovery of some molecules with a positive effect in modulating repair and regeneration processes. Despite the obvious advances made in medicine in relation to this field, there is a need to study these mechanisms in depth, especially with regard to the signaling pathways involved, the origin of the effector cells, the influence of injuries on the signaling pathways and the cells involved, and the influence of the microenvironment where all of these components must collaborate to achieve tissue repair with preserved architecture and function.
We hope that this Special Issue will serve as a platform to present evaluations of the mechanisms of tissue repair and regeneration, ultimately leading to the enrichment of data in this field and offering some practical solutions in modulating the processes involved in tissue regeneration.
We look forward to receiving your contributions and hope that we can lead the progress of this branch of medicine.

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. Biomedicines 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 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.
