Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide and are associated with substantial economic burden. Among the existing treatments, it is widely accepted that regular exercise training is one of the most effective strategies. However, the optimal components of exercise training (i.e., modality/type, intensity, duration, and frequency) for managing CVDs remain largely unknown. Moreover, while research into the cellular and molecular processes underlying exercise training-induced benefits has gained increasing interest, these adaptations in the context of CVDs are not yet fully understood.
In this Special Issue on “Molecular Effects of Exercise Training in the Prevention and Treatment of Cardiovascular Diseases”, we welcome authors to submit original research articles and reviews that provide new insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms of exercise training on CVDs (e.g., intracellular signaling pathways, epigenetic and transcriptional mechanisms). We encourage manuscripts focusing on the effects of different exercise training modalities (e.g., high-intensity interval training, sprint training, hypoxic training, etc.) as well as any sex-specific adaptations.

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.
