Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to collect the latest research in the field of renal disease models, with a focus on exploring cellular mechanisms and potential treatment strategies. We invite researchers in the field to submit original research articles on the following topics:
- Models of kidney disease: Manuscripts describing the development and characterization of various new or improved models of kidney disease, including animal models, cell culture systems and organoids. This may include models for acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, diabetic nephropathy, autoimmune, glomerular disease and
- Cellular mechanisms: Studies on the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms that contribute to the pathogenesis of kidney disease. Submissions should elucidate the key cellular processes, signaling pathways and genetic factors involved in the development of kidney
- Therapeutic strategies: Innovative therapeutic approaches and potential treatment options for kidney disease at the cellular and molecular levels. Manuscripts should address drug development, regenerative medicine and precision medicine to improve patient

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. Cells is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
