Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We can all agree that understanding pathology in the context of aging requires defining the physiology of aging.
Cell senescence is one of the hallmarks of aging and is associated with changes of multiple aspects of cell biology. That includes alterations of genetic material, transcription, translation, or post-translational modifications, which is reflected in altered proteomic, lipidomic, and metabolomic profiles of cells and tissues. Identification of aging markers that would allow elimination or at least slow the progression of undesirable changes taking place during aging is one of the priorities of aging research.
Thus, the aim of this Special Issue, entitled “Genetic, Proteomic, Lipidomic, and Metabolomic Markers of Aging”, is to collect work on the current research associated with the aspects of physiology and the pathology of aging. We encourage you to submit your manuscripts associated with exciting aspects of diagnostics and monitoring of aging markers and their potential in evaluating the function of living systems at all levels from overall health to through the condition of organs and tissues, to single cells at the molecular level.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
