Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue entitled “Recent Advances of Endothelial Progenitor Cells in Vascular Endothelial Function and Tissue Repair” focuses on the most updated knowledge in the field of Endothelial Progenitor Cells and, most specifically, on the:
- Review of the existing methods or new proposals for identification and quantification;
- Potential pathophysiological mechanisms of mobilization, differentiation, vascular protection and tissue repair in a wide spectrum of diseases and clinical syndromes;
- Clinical translation of the existing findings of original research;
- Future perspectives and potential clinical indications of Endothelial Progenitor Cells.
We are pleased to invite authors to submit their original research, recommendation articles, and/or reviews covering all aspects of Endothelial Progenitor Cells. Participation in this Special Issue through the submission of a manuscript could be an excellent opportunity for senior researchers to enrich their CVs, for doctoral or post-doctoral trainees to gain experience in writing reviews and for institutions to present their original research in a high-quality journal.

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.
