Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the signal transduction of P1 and P2 receptors in the heart with regard to health and diseases. Moreover, the ways in which new P1 or P2 receptor agonists and antagonists behave in the heart is of interest. Another interesting field to explore is the presence and functional role of homomeric and heterodimeric P1 and P2 receptors in the heart. Studies that present a pathophysiological standpoint regarding the role of these receptors in common cardiac diseases—such as heart failure (pressure-induced, sepsis-induced, volume-overload-induced, genetically induced), hypertension, and supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmias—will be considered for publication in this Special Issue. These studies can be carried out in patients, isolated human cardiac preparations, and animal cardiomyocytes, especially from transgenic mouse models. Biochemical and electrophysiological studies are also encouraged.

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.
