Metabolism and Molecular Pathology Related Features in Neurological Diseases

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue provides a focused exploration of the biochemical hallmarks underlying metabolic dysregulation in neurological disorders. Researchers have delved deeper into the intricate molecular mechanisms that link metabolism to the pathology of neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. From this perspective, research is uncovering key molecular events such as alteration of mitochondrial metabolism, oxidative stress, protein aggregation and neuroinflammation. By unraveling the molecular complexities of metabolic alterations, this Special Issue aims to provide insights into the pathogenesis of neurological disorders while striving to identify potential molecular targets for therapeutic intervention. The field is ripe for innovative molecular-based approaches to diagnosis and treatment. Through a rigorous examination of molecular pathways, this Special Issue will advance our understanding of the molecular foundations of neurological diseases, providing a basis to guide future translational research.

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. Current Issues in Molecular Biology 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 2200 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.
