Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiometabolic diseases encompass a cluster of common metabolic and cardiovascular conditions that typically share various interrelated risk factors, such as insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, or elevated blood pressure. Although these non-communicable diseases are often preventable, their high prevalence and the frequent concomitance of other adverse health consequences make them a major public health issue today. A complex spectrum of different factors is well known to be involved in these multifactorial disorders, including oxidative stress, inflammatory processes, endocrine and metabolic alterations, gut microbiota dysbiosis, and exogenous factors (e.g., diet, lifestyle habits, exposure to endocrine disruptors). Accordingly, widely covered omics techniques (e.g., metabolomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, metallomics) stand out as reliable and powerful approaches to elucidate the multifaceted mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis and progression of these diseases, as well as to study the efficacy of therapeutic interventions (e.g., pharmaceuticals, antioxidant dietary compounds).
The aim of this Special Issue is to gather original research papers and review articles focused on the development and application of omics techniques to disentangle the complexity of cardiometabolic diseases, with particular emphasis on oxidative-related processes. Works addressing the identification of gut microbial and exogenous-related risk factors (i.e., the exposome) in the development of cardiometabolic disorders are also welcome.

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. Antioxidants 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 2900 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.
