Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Understanding the molecular basis of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is crucial for advancing diagnostics, treatment, and prevention strategies. At the heart of these diseases are complex genetic, cellular, and biochemical interactions that regulate heart function and blood vessels. By deciphering these molecular mechanisms, researchers can identify biomarkers for early detection and develop targeted therapies to improve patient outcomes. This knowledge also offers insights into the underlying causes of conditions such as atherosclerosis, heart failure, and many others, paving the way for more personalized and effective medical interventions.
Supervised by Dr. Andrea Marzullo and assisted by Dr. Cecilia Salzillo from University of Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli, this Special Issue focuses on recent studies that aim to investigate the molecular basis of cardiovascular diseases including inflammatory, degenerative, and functional conditions, with a particular interest on sudden death, cardiomyopathies, coronary artery diseases, pericarditis, and heart failure. Submissions of pathological and molecular studies including biomolecular experiments (but not pure clinical experiments) are welcomed to comply with the aim of the journal.
Dr. Andrea Marzullo

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.
