Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sirtuins are widely recognized for their roles in metabolic homeostasis and aging. Encouraged by novel advances, we plan a Special Issue that will give an overview of the most recent developments in sirtuin research in the field of reproductive biology.
We are soliciting high-impact research articles (with reviews consisting up to 30%) to this Special Issue entitled “Sirtuins in mammalian reproduction: involvement in physiological and disease states”. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: sirtuins’ actions, mechanisms of action, and signaling pathways; and the regulation of their expression in gonadal tissues and cells, germ cells and endometrium during the reproductive cycle, aging process, and disease states such as PCOS and reproductive malignancies. Both in vivo and in vitro studies in different organisms and models are welcomed.
