Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As life expectancy grows in society as a result of medical and social advances, the interest in knowing the mechanisms by which humans age increases. There is no doubt that the study of aging is multidisciplinary and can be approached from different points of view. The objective of this Special Issue is to bring together investigations dedicated to investigating the phenomenon of aging from a molecular point of view, without establishing limits in terms of focus.
The “Molecular Aspects of Aging” Special Issue welcomes original research and review articles related to the basic biology of aging, bioenergetics, redox biology, and the study of biomarkers; the effect of diet on aging and longevity; the interaction between aging and its associated diseases (e.g., Alzheimer’s); and any other aspects related to aging from a molecular perspective.

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.
