Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Inflammatory diseases are the most common acute and chronic health conditions in the world. They are characterized by a very complex pathophysiological process, involving a myriad of enzymes, mediators, and receptors, producing proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory molecules. Despite the fact that the discovery of anti-inflammatory drugs has been very extensive, inflammatory diseases remain among the most serious health burdens, and the medical need for more potent and safe anti-inflammatory drugs still remains.
The topics covered will include (but are not limited to) the following:
- The individuation of new targets for anti-inflammatory therapy;
- Natural products as novel therapeutic strategies in inflammatory diseases;
- New synthetic compounds with anti-inflammatory proprieties.

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.
