Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the COVID-19 pandemic still unraveling and affecting millions of individuals worldwide, understanding uncontrolled inflammatory reactions has become an urgent need.
Regardless of the cause, inflammation has evolved as an adaptive response for restoring homeostasis. However, inflammatory response is a double-edged sword as excessive inflammation can itself exacerbate tissue damage. To limit unfavorable consequences, many stimuli that trigger inflammatory response simultaneously trigger a program that actively resolves inflammation. Nonresolving inflammation is associated with adverse outcomes and is regarded as a major driver of disease in chronic conditions. Multiple mechanisms normally ensure resolution, involving genetic, transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and behavioral pathways.
As volumes 1 and 2 of the Special Issue “Regulation of Inflammatory Reactions in Health and Disease” were successful, we have chosen to reopen this Special Issue in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (ISSN 1422-0067, IF 6.208, JCR Category Q1). This third Special Issue, “Regulation of Inflammatory Reactions in Health and Disease 3.0”, welcomes original manuscripts and review articles addressing this pressing topic.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
