Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Magnesium (Mg) and other biometals (BM) play an essential role in various physiological processes in cells but also at the level of tissue, organ, and of the whole body. Aberrant homeostasis of Mg or other BM can be the consequence of some disease conditions, but it might also be a factor priming the onset of certain diseases. Among serious disease conditions associated with disturbed Mg and other BM homeostasis are cardiovascular, metabolic and also neurological, neurodegenerative, neuromuscular, and psychiatric diseases. In this Special Issue of IJMS, we welcome any original research, review or minireview/hypothesis regarding the role of Mg and of other BM (or their homeostatic factors) in the pathoetiology of human and animal ailments and their use in diagnostics and patient therapy following principles of translational and/or personalized medicine.
