Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this series is to provide an understanding of the complex cell and molecular mechanisms through which monomeric C-reactive protein (mCRP) induces responses in host tissues and cells, driving various pathological conditions. In this group of publications, the receptor-mediated activation of signaling pathways linked to inflammation, angiogenesis, and other aberrant responses will be evaluated. The link between mCRP and the development as well as progression of both acute and chronic diseases, such as atherosclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, and diabetic complications, can be considered within this series.
This Special Issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences on “Molecular Mechanisms of C-Reactive Protein”, supervised by Prof. Dr. Mark Slevin (Manchester Metropolitan University; George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science and Technology of Targu Mures) and assisted by Dr. Ylenia Pastorello (George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science and Technology of Targu Mures), aims at providing cutting-edge knowledge on every aspect of C-reactive protein.

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.
