Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cell signaling contributes to homeostasis in humans and is normally involved in endocrine, neuronal and local communication between cells and tissues. However, abnormal cell signaling contributes to many diseases, including chronic inflammation, infection, cancers, neurodegeneration and metabolic disorders. Consequently, research into the mechanisms underlying the control of cell signaling processes in health and disease has accelerated the discovery of disease biomarkers and new drug targets.
As a recognized expert in the field of cell signaling, we are pleased to invite you to contribute original articles, communications and reviews that cover the broad field of “Cell Signaling in Health and Disease.”
Topics will include new mechanisms of signal transduction, the contribution of new mechanisms to functional regulation of cells, tissues, organs and whole organisms and the validation of drug targets and drug development. The Special Issue aims to highlight the recent developments in the signaling field that have a significant impact on our understanding of health and disease.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Cells is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2700 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.
