Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Tumor cell metabolism is a complex and dynamic field in cancer research. Research in tumor cell metabolism is rapidly evolving, and ongoing studies aim to unravel the complexity of metabolic reprogramming in different cancer types. The intersection of cancer metabolism and epigenetics alterations represents a fascinating area of research that sheds light on how metabolic alterations influence the epigenetic landscape in cancer cells and vice versa.

The intricate interplay between cancer metabolism and epigenetics highlights the complexity of cancer biology. This Special Issue aims to unravel these connections, potentially identifying new therapeutic avenues and biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment response in cancer patients. In this Special Issue, we welcome high-quality original research and review articles focusing on (but not limited to) the following topics: crosstalk between metabolism and epigenetics; metabolic reprogramming and epigenetics; therapeutic strategies; and biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment response.

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.
