Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metabolic diseases are one of the main causes of mortality in the global population. Their etiology is very diverse, but always related to metabolic alterations at the molecular level. Many of these diseases are caused by abnormalities in the function of enzymes, the activity of which determines the course of biochemical reactions, which are components of catabolic or anabolic pathways.
Considering the above, it is obvious that progress in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of metabolic diseases will not be possible without intensive scientific research that will clearly explain their causes at the molecular level, but will also enable the development of diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. With this in mind, I am pleased to invite scientists involved in the molecular research of metabolic diseases to publish their latest achievements in this Special Issue.

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.
