Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following a very successful first run, we are pleased to announce the launch of a second edition of a Special Issue on New Insights into Mechanisms and Therapeutics for Cardiovascular Disorders.
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Cardiovascular disease includes heart failure, ischemia, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, heart valve disease, pericarditis, rheumatic heart disease, stroke, and other disorders. Understanding the molecular and physiological mechanisms is necessary for developing effective therapeutics. This requires both experimental and computational research modalities, spanning scales from the molecular to the organ system level. Hence, insights can be gained through detailed studies at a particular scale and integrative studies that span multiple scales. Advances in the treatment of cardiovascular disease require research that spans from basic science to translational research and, ultimately, to clinical studies. This is reflected in recent advances in molecular biomarkers, which provide both mechanistic insights and clinically actionable treatment strategies.
This Special Issue of Biomolecules will highlight new insights into the mechanisms and therapeutics developed to manage cardiovascular disease. Both new research papers and reviews describing the state of the field and important new directions are welcome.

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.
- Reprint: MDPI Books provides the opportunity to republish successful Special Issues in book format, both online and in print.
