Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cells require well-defined and strictly regulated redox environments to maintain their normal metabolism. Although this may sound somewhat static, it is not; cells live in dynamic states according to their surrounding environments and their current or destined states of differentiation. While living cells are intrinsically dependent on systems of electron flow to produce ATP for their energy needs, the physicochemical conditions that maintain the electron flow ensure that cells live under continuous oxidative stress. The desired/undesired electron flow and all mechanisms to reverse it in living cells are the cores of biology, and they have fascinated scientists for years.
We are pleased to invite you to submit to this Special Issue, entitled “Advances in Redox Metabolism and Cellular Homeostasis”. This Special Issue aims to present novel findings related to normal cellular life and adaptations in responses to different kinds of stress, all ultimately related to redox biology.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome to be submitted. Research areas may include, but are not limited to, all kinds of cells and organisms, all enzymatic systems participating in normal metabolism or antioxidant mechanisms, and, of course, all modifications of individual molecules to achieve these aims.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Biology 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 2700 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
