Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Multiomics studies, which integrates genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, have significantly advanced our understanding of skin diseases. These approaches enable researchers to unravel the complex molecular mechanisms that underlie various conditions, such as psoriasis, eczema, skin aging, and skin cancers. By examining the interplay of genetic variants, gene expression changes, protein interactions, and metabolic alterations, multiomics studies reveal distinct disease phenotypes and identify biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis. Additionally, these comprehensive insights inform the development of targeted therapies, enabling the application of personalized treatment strategies. As multiomics continues to evolve, it holds the potential to transform the landscape of skincare and dermatological therapies, offering promise for improved clinical outcomes and enhancing the quality of life of patients affected by skin diseases. In this Special Issue, we welcome contributions that focus on recent advances in molecular research on skin diseases, with the aim of shedding light on the underlying mechanisms and exploring potential therapeutic strategies.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
