Summary
We are pleased to announce a special issue of BIOCELL entitled «MitoROS: Exploring Mitochondria and Oxidative Stress», focusing on mitochondrial biology, oxidative stress, and their role in human disease pathogenesis. This issue is inspired by the Young Scientists' School «MitoROS: Study of Mitochondria and Oxidative Stress» (September 12-14, 2025, Yoshkar-Ola, Russia, Mari State University), and we are delighted to share these materials with researchers working in these fields.
Scope of the Special Issue
This issue will cover cutting-edge research and reviews on:
· Mitochondrial dysfunction in disease pathogenesis with an emphasis on mechanisms elucidated at the cellular or subcellular level
· Oxidative stress and redox signaling focusing on their effects on cell signaling and cellular functions
· Advances in structural mitochondriology accompanied by functional and mechanistic insights at the cell level
· Gene and cell therapy approaches for mitochondrial disorders validated in cell-based models to demonstrate underlying cellular mechanisms
· Innovative techniques in mitochondrial research that enable mechanistic studies in cells or subcellular systems
Submission Guidelines
We invite original research articles, reviews, and short communications from scientists worldwide. Manuscripts should clearly include cellular or subcellular experiments that uncover mechanisms, not solely descriptive or animal-level observations, in line with BIOCELL standards.
Submission deadline: 31 December 2025
Why Submit?
· High visibility in a thematically focused issue
· Contributions from leading experts in the field
· Opportunity to share your work with a broad scientific audience and to present mechanistic insights at the cellular level that advance understanding of mitochondria and oxidative stress in disease.
