Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is with great pleasure that I present this Special Issue, entitled "Mitochondria as a Target for Tissue Repair and Regeneration". In recent years, the role of mitochondria dysfunction in pathologies related to trauma and various diseases has been demonstrated by the constantly increasing number of publications. On the other hand, the normalization of mitochondrial function is becoming increasingly accepted as a promising therapeutic approach to tissue repair and regeneration.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the importance of a deeper understanding of mitochondria-related mechanisms determining cell, tissue, and organ pathologies. We also aim to focus on novel methods that aim to enhance the protection of mitochondria and preserve their normal function, and thus stimulation tissue repair and regeneration. Particular attention will be paid to the innovative methods of the study of mitochondrial function, mitochondrial biogenesis, and mitophagy. This Special Issue welcomes the submission of studies focused on mitochondria-derived damage-associated molecular patterns and their role in trauma-related systemic inflammation.
We welcome a wide range of contributions related to mitochondria as a target for tissue repair and regeneration, as original research or reviews, that will certainly enrich this Special Issue.
Dr. Igor A. Prudovsky

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. 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.
