Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The pulmonary vasculature is composed of many different types of cells including smooth muscle, endothelial, fibroblast, pericyte, inflammatory, stem, progenitor, other cells. Each type of cell may plays a unique important functional role in pulmonary vascular biology and diseases. The roles of each type of cell are likely to be mediated by one or multiple molecules and their associated signaling pathways. Evidently, significant progress has been made in this research field. As a result, it is necessary to offer widespread and comprehensive recent advances in the studies of pulmonary vascular functions and mechanisms in biology and disease. These valuable advances may not only enhance current basic, translational and clinical research, but also promote the identification of new drug targets and therapies.

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. Biomedicines 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 2600 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.
