Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Maternal and perinatal oxidative stress is critical for the developmental origins of health and disease, while specific antioxidant and nutrient supplementations may serve as reprogramming strategies to prevent many diseases. The role of perinatal oxidative stress in the onset of insulin resistance, central nervous system development, cardiovascular diseases, early aging postnatal development and the possible interventions that may prevent or reduce such effects is a field of interest in the scientific literature. On the other hand, mitochondria are particularly adept at mediating early metabolic programming by oxidative stress, and they serve as subcellular substrates in the programming process at the same time. This Special Issue aims to gather current knowledge on the interplay of maternal oxidative stress during pregnancy and breastfeeding and the response to early-life insults to assess its impact on developmental programming during in utero and early postnatal life, because research into oxidative stress that begins early in life will have profound implications for future health.

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. Antioxidants 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 2900 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.
