Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cellular regulation of inflammatory diseases represents an important field in biomedical research that focuses on how immune cells control the initiation, progression, and resolution of inflammation. Inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarctions, and cancers, result from dysregulated immune responses that fail to maintain equilibrium between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory signals. Understanding cellular trafficking, interaction, and functional regulatory changes during these diseases will provide insights into the cellular mechanisms behind them and lead to more accurate therapies that adjust immune responses without increasing infection risk. This Special Issue will showcase research elucidating the functions of essential cell types, such as neutrophils, monocytes/macrophages, T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, and dendritic cells, along with signaling pathways and molecular regulators that facilitate acute or chronic inflammation.

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biomolecules 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 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.
