Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Antioxidants announces a Special Issue focusing on the intricate relationship between redox biology, redox signaling, and the toxicology of chemical stressors, including pesticides, environmental pollutants, and lifestyle. This issue aims to shed light on how redox processes are influenced by external chemical cues and how this impacts different biological systems. Chemical stressors have the potential to trigger intricate biochemical reactions that disrupt the redox balance, essential for sustaining cellular homeostasis and optimal functionality.
This Special Issue invites scientists to contribute articles and comprehensive reviews exploring the mechanisms of redox signaling affected by chemical stressors. We are particularly interested in studies revealing how these agents alter redox processes, impact cellular signaling pathways, and contribute to toxicity in different biological systems.
We encourage submissions that cover a range of topics, including but not limited to the identification of new chemical stressors affecting redox balance, mechanistic insights into redox-mediated toxicity, and the implications of redox biology in environmental toxicology. This issue aims to provide a platform for interdisciplinary dialogue and advance our understanding of redox processes in environmental health.

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. Antioxidants is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
