Functional roles of non-coding RNAs in cardiovascular diabetology

Guest Editor:
Gaetano Santulli, MD, PhD, FAHA, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, USA

Submission Status: Open   |   Submission Deadline: 1 March 2024


Cardiovascular Diabetology is calling for submissions to our Collection on Functional roles of non-coding RNAs in cardiovascular diabetology. Non-coding RNAs have recently emerged as fundamental players in a number of physiologic and pathologic processes. We are interested in considering manuscripts exploring key aspects of non-coding RNA in basic science as well as in clinical practice, for instance examining their applications as reliable biomarkers of disease and their employment as therapeutic tools.

About the collection

Cardiovascular Diabetology is calling for submissions to our Collection on Functional roles of non-coding RNAs in cardiovascular diabetology. Non-coding RNAs have recently emerged as fundamental players in a number of physiologic and pathologic processes. This Collection, edited by Prof. Gaetano Santulli, MD, PhD, is open to both original articles and systematic reviews focusing on non-coding RNAs in the field of cardiovascular diabetology, with the ultimate goal to provide a comprehensive, state-of-the-art overview on this intriguing topic. We are interested in considering manuscripts exploring key aspects of non-coding RNA in basic science as well as in clinical practice, for instance examining their applications as reliable biomarkers of disease and their employment as therapeutic tools.

Submission Guidelines

Back to top

This Collection welcomes submission of Research Articles, Data Notes, Case Reports, Study Protocols, and Database Articles. Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure you have read our submission guidelines. Articles for this Collection should be submitted via our submission system, Snapp. During the submission process you will be asked whether you are submitting to a Collection, please select "Functional roles of non-coding RNAs in cardiovascular diabetology" from the dropdown menu.

Articles will undergo the journal’s standard peer-review process and are subject to all of the journal’s standard policies. Articles will be added to the Collection as they are published.

The Guest Editors have no competing interests with the submissions which they handle through the peer review process. The peer review of any submissions for which the Guest Editors have competing interests is handled by another Editorial Board Member who has no competing interests.
