Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the term metabolic syndrome (i.e., MetS) became one of the most commonly used phrases in medical sciences. This concept is defined as many interrelated metabolic factors, the co-occurrence of which contributes the increaed risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes. MetS includes, but is not limited to, obesity, impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance and/or hyperinsulinemia, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, or pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic conditions. The pathogenesis of this syndrome has not been fully understood. It is indicated that the predominant causes of MetS are primarily insulin resistance and visceral obesity; however, there are other plausible risk factors predisposed to metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, patients with MetS require substantial healthcare service, and consequently more medical professionals are involved in their treatment.
We welcome the submission of original research articles or review papers as contributions to this Special Issue of Metabolites, titled “Effects of Bioactive Compounds on Metabolic Syndrome”. This special edition aims to expand upon the knowledge on such an important health problem as MetS. We invite you to publish articles on the systematization of theories on this subject, as well as the patiogenesis, prevention, and treatment of metabolic syndrome.
