Epigenetics, defined as heritable changes in gene function or phenotype, in the absence of DNA sequence changes, plays central roles in controlling gene expression in various fields. This is an especially important topic in aging, where epigenetic changes have been recognized as one of the molecular hallmarks of aging. In this issue we will accept contributions on different aspects of the molecular biology of aging with a special focus on epigenetic regulation and on the advances in molecular based intervention strategies for aging and age-associated diseases.

Keywords: epigenetics, longevity aging, DNA methylation, neurodegenerative, gene expression

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.antpublisher.com through the online submission system. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be 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 Therapeutic Brief 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. APT is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by ANT.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. Considering limited grants for some researchers, Prof. Alexander Panossian and the editorial office made the decision that Article Processing Charges will be fully exempted, which means that there are NOT any manuscript processing or publication fees for your article once accepted after standard peer-review.
