Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) are produced under normal physiological conditions in organisms and play a significant role in various biological functions, both beneficial and harmful. ROS can damage DNA, proteins, and lipids, leading to cellular dysfunction and disease. These reactive molecules are generated through both endogenous processes, such as cellular respiration, and exogenous sources, including UV radiation and environmental toxins. The body’s antioxidant system, which includes enzymes like catalase and superoxide dismutase as well as vitamins and minerals, serves to neutralize ROS and protect against oxidative stress. The aim of this Special Issue is to explore how the assessment of antioxidants and oxidants can facilitate the early diagnosis and prevention of diseases linked to oxidative stress. By understanding the oxidative status of patients, we can develop strategies to mitigate disease progression and enhance preventative measures. This Special Issue seeks to present cutting-edge research that delves into the mechanisms by which oxidative stress contributes to disease and examines innovative methods for testing and analyzing antioxidant and oxidant levels. We are particularly interested in studies that demonstrate how these assessments can be used to predict disease onset, monitor progression, and evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions.

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. Journal of Personalized Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
