Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The central and peripheral nervous systems have a high demand for nutrients and xenobiotics with neurotrophic and neuromodulating activity, which often exceed the endogenous metabolic supply. Many organs in the body act in concert to satisfy such needs, using a quite sensitive communication network of intermediate metabolites, in which dietary bioactives converge as external signals and parent compounds. Functional Neuronutrition as a basic and applied science has advanced exponentially in the last decade, contributing to the prevention and control of numerous physiological deviations of the neurocognitive process. Moreover, the so-called “Neuronutritional approach” can influence a plethora of key neuro-epigenetic, immunological, and metabolic processes related to behavioral problems. The objective of this Special Issue on metabolites is to gather scientific articles that demonstrate new knowledge and advances in this field, welcoming systematic/narrative reviews, original articles, and future perspectives on the subject. Of special interest for this Special Issue are manuscripts that describe or outline the metabolic pathways involved in correct neuroendocrine functioning and those that describe abnormal metabolomic events (due to disease) and their correction by dietary bioactives.

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.
