Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Intestinal inflammation, a hallmark of disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), celiac disease, and other gastrointestinal conditions, arises from a complex interplay of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immunological factors. Recent advances in molecular biology and immunology have illuminated the intricate pathways driving intestinal inflammation, including dysregulated immune responses, gut barrier dysfunction, and microbiota imbalances. These insights are paving the way for novel therapeutic strategies, from targeted molecular interventions to microbiome-based therapies.
This Special Issue, "Intestinal Inflammation: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Strategies", aims to bring together cutting-edge research exploring the underlying molecular mechanisms of intestinal inflammation and innovative approaches to its treatment. We welcome original research, reviews, and clinical studies addressing topics such as immune regulation, epithelial barrier repair, microbial–host interactions, and the development of novel anti-inflammatory agents. We seek to advance our understanding and improve outcomes for patients with intestinal inflammatory disorders.

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. Current Issues in Molecular Biology 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 2200 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.
