Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to summarise advances in the molecular mechanisms of inflammatory processes leading to arthritis and bone changes, and thus focuses on both the immunological and the osteological organ system. Advances in autoimmunity and auto-inflammation as well as advances in our knowledge of bone loss and bone growth are welcome for this Special Issue. In addition, osteo-immunological aspects describing the interactions between the immunological and the osteological systems are encouraged, as are studies on the intracellular, cellular and in vivo levels. The knowledge about such molecular mechanisms will provide new stimuli for further clinical research, including new treatment options for inflammatory arthritis in the acute and the chronic disease-phases and immune-related problems after prosthetic or other bone surgery.
Prof. Carlo Perricone
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information

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