Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Molecular cardiology is a new and fast-growing area of cardiovascular medicine that aims to apply molecular biology techniques for the mechanistic investigation, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of cardiovascular disease.
As an emerging discipline, it has changed our conceptual thinking of cardiovascular development, disease etiology and pathophysiology. Although molecular cardiology is still at a very early stage, it constitutes a promising avenue for understanding and controlling cardiovascular disease.
The Special Issue will address the recent advances in the molecular pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease, including gene analysis in injured and hypertrophied hearts; transgenic techniques in cardiac research; gene transfer and gene therapy for cardiovascular disease; and stem cell therapy for cardiovascular disease.
It would be an honor to publish your article in the upcoming Special Issue of our journal. Therefore, we request you consider submitting a manuscript. This Special Issue is supervised by Prof. Dr. Mirela Cleopatra Tomescu and assisted by our Topical Advisory Panel Member, Dr. Sourav Ghorai (University of Illinois at Chicago).
