Strategies to Counteract Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Chronic-Degenerative Diseases 3.0

Dear Colleagues,

The great increase in life expectancy is linked to the necessity of counteracting chronic degenerative diseases, e.g., cancer, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular as well as neurodegenerative diseases that affect a high percentage of the population, since oxidative stress and inflammation are common features of these diseases and impact the functions and structures of organs and tissues differently.

As volumes one and two of the Special Issues “Strategies to Counteract Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Chronic-Degenerative Diseases” have been successful, we will be exploring this issue further in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (ISSN: 1422-0067, IF: 5.600, and JCR Category Q1). In this third Special Issue, we collect original articles and reviews on this multifaceted topic that still remains largely unexplored, in order to provide support for the development of novel potential therapeutic approaches.

Suggested topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Cellular and molecular mechanisms to counteract oxidative stress and inflammation in aging and chronic diseases;
• Dietetic strategies for the prevention of chronic diseases;
• Oxidative stress as a target for interventions;
• Association of drugs with antioxidant or anti-inflammatory compounds for the therapy of chronic diseases.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English.
