Recent Advancements in the Regulated Cell Death

Dear Colleagues,

With the emerging technology, programmed cell death and its mechanism have progressed immensely, identifying new targets in biological development and therapeutics.

The types of programmed cell death or regulated cell death explored in the last decades are apoptosis, autophagy, necroptosis, necrosis, pyroptosis, paraptosis, ferroptosis, anoikis, NETosis, oxeiptosis, parthanatos etc. Recently, two unique forms of cell death named PANoptosis and cuproptosis, have been witnessed by researchers, which ensures all new modes of investigation in the field of regulated cell death that contribute to a wide range of understanding on the physiological and pathologicalmechanisms.

One of the crucial roles of regulated cell death is its interplay between the different cell death programs and the activation of proteases in their cleaved forms. It is very important to emphasize these potential modes of regulated cell death and understand their implications and regulations in various therapeutic strategies for treating diseases.

The field of programmed cell death is constantly evolving and expanding its gain of interest through scientific endeavours, providing insights into new areas of novel therapeutic targets in drug development and homeostasis.

This special issue of Cells welcomes submissions of original research articles and reviews covering recent advancements in regulated cell death and breakthroughs in therapy and development.

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 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. Cells is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
