Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is a key element of an active process referred to as “resolution”. To date, several mediators apart from AnxA1, now called specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs), have so far been discovered to participate in/trigger the resolutive step of tge inflammatory process. This class of molecules includes elements like resolvins, maresins, and lipoxins, all active during inflammatory events to contain an excessive response of the immune system.
In this Special Issue of Biomolecules, we would like to exploit the different sides of binomial inflammation/resolution, with respect to AnxA1 and its functions alone or in cooperation with other pathways also involved in inflammatory events, such as NO or H2S, in different body compartments.
Dr. Vincenzo Brancaleone
Guest Editor

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.
