Unveiling the Dynamic World of Adaptive Unfolded Protein Responses in Metabolic Disease: A Scientist’s Perspective

Dear Colleagues,

We call on you to embark on a captivating journey into the intricate realm of adaptive unfolded protein responses, as seen through the discerning eyes of a seasoned physician. In this exploration, we delve into the fascinating interplay between metabolic disease and the body’s ingenious mechanisms for coping with protein folding challenges. Join us as we unravel the mysteries of cellular resilience and witness the unfolding narrative of how the body adapts to the demands of metabolic intricacies. This compelling perspective, offered by a dedicated physician, unveils the nuanced strategies that underscore our understanding of metabolic diseases. Discover the synergy between medical insight and the unfolding events in our cells and gain a fresh appreciation for the intricate mechanisms of proteins in the context of metabolic well-being. Engage with the narrative that bridges physicians’ expertise with the complex mechanisms at play, promising a richer comprehension of the intersection between health and adaptive responses. For this Special Issue, we invite you to peer through the lens of a physician’s perspective, where science meets the art of healing, and the story of adaptive unfolded protein responses takes center stage in the captivating metabolic disease.

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.
