“Causative Links between Protein Aggregation and Oxidative Stress: A Review” (doi.org/10.3390/ijms20163896)
“Immunobiology of Atherosclerosis: A Complex Net of Interactions” (doi.org/10.3390/ijms20215293)
Three Research Articles:
“Development of a Gut-on-a-Chip Model for High Throughput Disease Modeling and Drug Discovery” (doi.org/10.3390/ijms20225661)
“Triple-Negative Breast Cancer with High Levels of Annexin A1 Expression Is Associated with Mast Cell Infiltration, Inflammation, and Angiogenesis” (doi.org/10.3390/ijms20174197)
“CGRP Induces Differential Regulation of Cytokines from Satellite Glial Cells in Trigeminal Ganglia and Orofacial Nociception” (doi.org/10.3390/ijms20030711)
In recognition of their accomplishments, each winner (corresponding author) will receive the privilege of publishing a free paper after the usual peer-review procedure in IJMS in 2021. On behalf of the assessment committee, we congratulate the winners on their accomplishments. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the nominated research groups of the above exceptional papers for their contributions to IJMS, and thank the Award Committee for voting and contributing to the success of these awards.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a two-stage treatment that implies the use of light energy, oxygen, and light-activated compounds (photosensitizers) to elicit cancerous and precancerous cell death after light activation (phototoxicity). The biophysical...
Glioblastoma (GB) stands out as the most prevalent and lethal form of brain cancer. Although great efforts have been made by clinicians and researchers, no significant improvement in survival has been achieved since the Stupp protocol became the stan...
The use of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) as drug targets is being researched due to their discovery and their role in disease. Targeting ncRNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), is an attractive approach for treating variou...
The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been the foremost modern global public health challenge. The airway is the primary target in severe acute respiratory distress syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, with substantial cel...
The advancement of exosome studies has positioned engineered exosomes as crucial biomaterials for the development of advanced drug delivery systems. This study focuses on developing a hybrid exosome system by fusing mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exos...
HDAC11 is a class IV histone deacylase with no crystal structure reported so far. The catalytic domain of HDAC11 shares low sequence identity with other HDAC isoforms, which makes conventional homology modeling less reliable. AlphaFold is a machine l...
