Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to support and edit a new Special Issue for the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, entitled “Apolipoproteins and Lipoproteins in Health and Disease 3.0”, which is a continuation of our previous "Apolipoproteins in Health and Disease" and "Apolipoproteins and Lipoproteins in Health and Disease 2.0" Special Issues.
Although apolipoproteins were originally recognized as major determinants in lipoprotein metabolism and cardiovascular disease, the multiple apolipoprotein and lipoprotein classes and subclasses have emerged as relevant participants in multiple biological processes and pathophysiological pathways involved in diabetes, cancer, obesity, neurodegenerative disorders, and inflammatory as well as infectious diseases.
Led by Dr. Joan Carles Escolà-Gil and Dr. Noemí Rotllan, and assisted by our Topical Advisory Panel Member Dr. Marina Canyelles, this Special Issue aims to publish timely and informative findings on the molecular aspects of apolipoproteins (including isoforms and post-translational modifications) in addition to their influence on health and disease risk. Manuscripts of original research and reviews will be welcome.
Dr. Joan Carles Escolà-Gil

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.
