Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is supervised by Prof. Dr. Mi Young Lee with the assistance of our Topical Advisory Panel Member Dr. Ji-Hye Kang (Soonchunhyang University).
There has been an emerging interest in natural products and medicinal plants for inflammatory skin disorders and regeneration.
Bioactive natural products and medicinal plants have been known to exert pro-health effects on the skin via anti-oxidative, collagen biosynthesis-promoting, immunomodulatory, wound healing and anti-inflammatory activities, among other benefits.
Therefore, in this Special Issue, we closely consider the current knowledge and applications of bioactive natural compounds and their derivatives and conjugates, as well as plant extracts in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic fields.
The following subtopics may be covered:
- Biological activities and applications of bioactive natural compounds and their derivatives and conjugates for the treatment of skin inflammation, wound healing and regeneration and aging in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries;
- The beneficial effects of medicinal plant extracts on skin inflammation, wound healing and regeneration and aging in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries;
- Molecular mechanism underlying the pro-health effects on skin inflammation and the related disorders, including atopic dermatitis, psoriasis acne, etc.;
- Molecular mechanisms underlying the pro-health effects on wound healing, regeneration and aging.
Prof. Dr. Mi Young Lee
Guest Editor
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. 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. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
