This special issue comprising valuable publications on the identification of therapeutic targets in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases will hold significant importance due to a crucial role in advancing scientific knowledge and its fostering collaboration with clinical practice, as well as driving further research in the field.
Expected subtopics include, but are not limited to:
Identification of new therapeutic neuroinflammatory targets.
Common neurodegenerative diseases, their pathological features, and clinical manifestations in the context of potential therapy targets.
Innovative gene, cell and immunotherapies.
Innovative research on the use of precision medicine technologies to adapt to the features of personalized therapy.
Identification of signaling pathways as molecular targets whose modification may lead to inhibiting the progression of neurodegenerative diseases.
Cellular and animal models to investigate the effects of modulating signaling pathways on neurodegenerative disease progression.
Animal models of neurodegenerative diseases useful for validating the effectiveness of potential therapeutic targets and elucidating the mechanisms of action.
Challenges and future directions: identification of challenges and limitations in neurodegeneration targeting therapeutically.
Keywords: Neurodegenerative diseases, therapeutic neuroinflammatory targets, personalized medicine, signaling pathways as molecular targets, effectiveness of therapeutic targets in animal models
