Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of dermatology is rapidly evolving, driven by advances in molecular biology that enhance our understanding of skin diseases and their underlying mechanisms. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for researchers focused on experimental and laboratory medicine that addresses the molecular pathways contributing to various skin conditions, including but not limited to psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, vitiligo, alopecia, cutaneous leishmaniasis and skin fibrosis, squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, and melanoma. We invite contributions that explore novel biological and molecular mechanisms, as well as innovative therapeutic strategies emerging from experimental studies.
Our goal is to bridge laboratory discoveries with potential novel treatments that can effectively target the complexities of chronic inflammatory skin diseases and other dermatological disorders. We seek original research articles, methodologies, and reviews that delve into the biochemical interactions, immune responses, and genetic factors influencing skin health. Contributions that elucidate the mechanistic aspects of existing and emerging therapies will be particularly significant.
By fostering collaboration between molecular researchers and clinical dermatologists, we hope to catalyze the development of more effective, personalized treatment approaches for patients suffering from chronic skin diseases.
We look forward to your submissions that enhance our comprehension and treatment of dermatological diseases through rigorous scientific inquiry.

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.
