Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am honored to be the Guest Editor of this Special Issue of International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS), titled "25th Anniversary of IJMS: Updates and Advances in Molecular Pathology, Diagnostics, and Therapeutics". This commemorative issue will mark the 25th anniversary of IJMS by showcasing the latest updates and advances in the field of molecular pathology, diagnostics, and therapeutics.
We invite contributions that explore molecular mechanisms underlying diseases, novel diagnostic approaches, and cutting-edge therapeutic strategies. This Special Issue will provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of research, highlighting groundbreaking discoveries and emerging trends in areas such as the following:
- Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying diseases and injury;
- Immunopathology and immune-mediated disorders;
- Matrix pathobiology and tissue alterations;
- Molecular diagnostics and targeted therapies;
- Cell injury, repair, aging, and apoptosis;
- Stem cell and gene therapies;
- Novel mechanisms of carcinogenesis;
- Applications of molecular pathology in forensics and tissue identification.
We welcome original research articles, reviews, and perspectives from experts in the field, fostering interdisciplinary collaborations and advancing our understanding of molecular pathology, diagnostics, and therapeutics.

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.
