Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The immune system represents a sophisticated, interconnected and finely balanced militia of cells. These are able to elicit a plethora of functions that collectively protect against a range of insults experienced by an organism over its life course, thereby maintaining health and well-being. However, balance within the immune system can easily be disrupted leading to a variety of disorders, including inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
This Special Issue, entitled ‘Molecular Regulation in Inflammatory and Autoimmune Diseases’ aims to explore the key molecular regulators within the immune system, both positive and negative, and how their perturbation leads to relevant diseases. Both primary research and topical review manuscripts will be considered.
