Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to welcome researchers and scholars to this Special Issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. Here, we delve into the realm of "integrating meta-multi-omics data", where cutting-edge science meets the vast complexity of biology. With the unprecedented merging of diverse omics fields, we are on the cusp of transformative breakthroughs that will redefine our understanding of life and health.
This Issue focuses on exploring the profound impact of meta-multiomics on a variety of domains:
- Aging and Exercise: Dive deep into the molecular intricacies of aging and the central role of exercise. How does the symphony of genes, proteins, and metabolites play out as we age? How does movement influence this complicated dance?
- Skeletal muscle and mitochondria: understand the dynamic interactions and changes of skeletal muscle and mitochondria, the critical components that underscore our physical health and energy dynamics.
- Heart and Cancer: embark on a journey through the molecular pathways of the heart and delve into the multi-faceted world of cancer. How are these vital areas affected by the cascade of molecular interactions? What new therapeutic and preventive insights emerge when viewed through the integrated omics lens?
- Therapy and prevention: explore the therapeutic potential unlocked by multi-omics data. From proteomics, which reveals protein interactions and functions, to metabolomics, which provides insights into small molecules: How can we better plan treatments and preventive measures?
- Proteomics, metabolomics, and Omnibus: explore the intricate fields of proteomics and metabolomics. Also appreciate the big data collections like the Omnibus dataset that serve as treasure troves of data and drive metamultiomics.
Our goal with this Special Issue is to provide more than just a collection of research articles. We intend to offer a testament to the power of integrated molecular science—a beacon for researchers, clinicians, and students alike. As you flip through these pages, you will find a tapestry of insights, revelations, and forward-looking discussions that promise to shape the future of molecular science.
We sincerely thank the many authors and reviewers who contributed their expertise and passion to this issue. Their collective efforts have made it possible to illuminate the tremendous possibilities of meta-multiomics data integration.
Join us on this insightful journey and be re-inspired and excited by the molecular world that lies within and around us.

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.
