Proteins in Health and Diseases: New Knowledge and Practical Applications
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Proteins are of great importance in the diagnosis and understanding of most diseases and pathological disturbances that occur, thus having an impact on biomarkers. This Topic will focus on studies which offer new knowledge about proteins and their role and applications in health and disease. It will welcome contributions about the following topics:
- applicative studies about the use of proteins as biomarkers;
- the identification of new proteins that can be of interest in physiological and pathological problems;
- the development of new assays or validation studies for detection of proteins of clinical interest;
- advances in the studies of proteins in non-invasive samples such as saliva or feces;
- omics studies involving proteins;
- the establishment of reference ranges or physiological values of proteins and analytes of clinical interest;
- acute phase proteins and proteins of inflammation and immune system, such as cytokines and interleukins.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.
MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:
- Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
- Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
- Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
- Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
- Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
