Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oxidative stress and inflammation are physiological processes that occur in organisms and are linked to life. Thus, the first arises from an imbalance between the generation of oxidizing compounds and the action of antioxidant defense systems. The second may be present in different settings in which tissue damage and the release of inflammatory markers occur. However, a lack of control over its impacts is closely associated with several diseases, often at the heart of the pathogenesis of different conditions, including chronic diseases, neoplasms, autoimmune diseases and infections. Thus, the cellular, biomolecular and immunological investigation of these processes has not only allowed us to understand the mechanisms underlying these diseases, but also suggested new therapies that can positively impact patients, minimizing morbidity and mortality.
This Special Issue aims to present and discuss the advancement of research and innovative therapies involving the process of oxidative stress and inflammation in different environments and pathologies and exploring emerging diseases and pathophysiology that both reactive oxygen species and pro-inflammatory markers can modulate.
We request high-quality original research articles and review articles focused on the most recent research that points to new discoveries about the correlation of oxidative stress and inflammation, as well as innovative mechanisms related to modulating this scenario for future therapeutics.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Autoimmune diseases, inflammatory processes and oxidative stress;
- Purinergic system related to anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential in neoplasms;
- Neurodegenerative diseases and the modulation of neuroinflammatory and oxidative stress in the neuronal environment;
- Immune system and the oxidative and inflammatory process.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
