Special Issue Information
Genetic and environmental factors are driving the dynamics of metabolome. One of the most dominant factors projecting into the metabolome in health and disease is sex. This Special Issue deals with molecular mechanisms, biomarkers of processes, response patterns, efficacy of treatment, lifestyle, nutrition, and interactions with exo- and endomicrobiome causing sex-specific signatures in metabolites of human individuals and animal models. We are looking for contributions covering study design, analytical aspects, biostatistics, data interpretation (including mathematical modeling and mining), and sustainable data depositories involving information on sex-specific metabolome changes. We welcome contributions addressing the genetic determined sex (biological traits) and the gender-associated (personality traits) and their impact on the metabolites. The contributions could be in basic, clinical, and as well in translational research. Both original experimental research and review manuscripts are welcomed.

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. Metabolites is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
