Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metabolic pathways and their correction need urgent and thorough evaluation to elucidate their role in non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Notably, natural compounds (plants, nutrients, mineral water, therapeutic mud) and physical therapy have been shown to have anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and regenerative effects. Nevertheless, their complete metabolic effects are still insufficiently elucidated in relation to the evolution of metabolites and metabolic pathways in NCDs. This Special Issue is dedicated to the study of metabolic effects produced by natural compounds, physical therapy, and environmental factors in NCDs. We also aim to highlight the regenerative effects of tissue as a consequence of correcting metabolic pathways.
Topics:
- Analysis of metabolite(s) in NCDs;
- Analysis of the metabolic effects of plants, nutrients, environmental factors, therapeutic mud, mineral water, and physical agents on the metabolism and metabolic pathways in NCDs;
- Methodology development for detecting metabolites or changes in metabolic pathways in NCDs
- Metabolic pathways, networks, diseases, and errors in metabolism in NCDs;
- Metabolic pathways of autophagy in non-communicable diseases.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
