Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The treatment of psoriasis has come a long way, from the use of simple ointments like anthralin to the advanced biologic therapies that we rely on today. These improvements have greatly helped patients, but there is still so much we do not fully understand about psoriasis. The causes of the disease and how it is connected to other health problems remain areas that need more research.
Among the most intriguing connections is the role of lipid disturbances. These disruptions not only underscore the complex interplay between psoriasis and metabolic disorders but also offer valuable insights into the broader systemic effects of the disease. Alongside lipid disturbances, molecular mechanisms, including genetic, epigenetic, and inflammatory pathways, play a crucial role in shaping the clinical course of psoriasis and its associated conditions.
This Special Issue, "Psoriasis: Molecular Pathologies, Lipid Disturbances, Diagnosis and Therapeutic Strategies", aims to explore these important topics. We want to dive deeper into the molecular aspects of psoriasis, its link with lipid problems, and new ways to diagnose and treat the disease.
We invite you to contribute your research, reviews, or case studies to this Special Issue. Together, we can uncover new knowledge about psoriasis and help improve treatments and care for patients.
Dr. Hanna Mysliwiec

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.
