Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the field of translational biomedicine, research on magnesium homeostasis in cells and the body has developed rapidly. We believe that it is now time to establish a new Special Issue that builds upon the previous Special Issue entitled “Mg2+ Transport and Mg Homeostasis: From Molecular Science to Clinical Praxis”. We welcome the contribution of any research that deepens our understanding of the regulation of Mg2+ transport into and out of cells. Studies that focus on the control of magnesium homeostasis in specific organs or the entire body under both healthy and pathological situations in humans will also be welcome. We also are particularly interested in the utilization of magnesium in treatment plans for common human illnesses such as diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, ALS, neuromuscular disorders and cardiovascular disorders. We will also take into consideration manuscripts that concern the application of magnesium in the treatment of rare disorders and mitochondrial diseases. Lastly, in order to advance our understanding of magnesium's involvement in cellular and body biochemistry, we will gladly accept basic research papers that describe the involvement of magnesium in various biochemical (molecular) processes in cells and the body.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
