Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A plethora of experimental and clinical research data have indicated that oxidative stress has contributed to aging and related neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), Lou Gehrig's disease or Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), etc. As such, further understanding of pathological mechanisms involving oxidative stress in aging and neurodegenerative diseases may help with developing targeted antioxidant therapies for aging and age-associated neurodegenerative diseases. Thus, we are pleased to invite you to contribute to our Special Issue- “Oxidative Stress in Aging and Neurodegenerative Diseases”. This Special Issue aims to featuring oxidative stress research in the field of aging and related neurodegenerative diseases. We hope that this Special Issue will serve as an ideal forum for dissemination innovative research (including clinical research), current advancement, and ideas in the field. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but not limited to) the following:
- Oxidative stress in aging
- Oxidative stress in Alzheimer’s disease
- Oxidative stress in Parkinson’s disease
- Oxidative stress in Lou Gehrig's disease
- Anti-oxidative stress drug discovery
- Targeted Antioxidant Therapy
- Molecular imaging methods and agents for oxidative stress
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Cells.
