Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on exploring the intricate relationship between exercise, energy metabolism, and muscle physiology and its adaptation. Exercise has long been known to have a significant impact on these areas, and recent research has unveiled the underlying mechanisms and their implications for human health and performance.
This Special Issue features a collection of studies that investigate various aspects of this topic. These studies delve into the effects of different types of exercise regimens on energy expenditure, substrate utilization, metabolic pathways, skeletal muscle and exercise adaptation. Researchers have employed advanced techniques, such as metabolomics, proteomics and isotopic tracing, to uncover how exercise influences the way our bodies produce, utilize, and store energy within skeletal muscle and how this affects exercise performance and adaptation.
A key theme in this Special Issue is the adaptability of muscle metabolism in response to exercise and how this acutely and chronically affects muscle performance and adaptation. Studies have examined the molecular and cellular changes that occur in muscle tissue during and after exercise, shedding light on how exercise impacts mitochondrial function, oxidative stress and muscle fiber composition. Additionally, this Special Issue aims to explore the interplay between exercise-induced muscle contractions and metabolic signaling pathways, revealing insights into how these interactions contribute to overall metabolic health.

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. 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.
