Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is a pleasure to invite you to submit a review or a research article for publication in the Special Issue ‘Hemorheology and Metabolism’ for the journal Metabolites (MDPI).
Hemorheology deals with macro- and micro-dimensions of blood flow properties, its cellular and plasmatic factors, and the vessel wall with which the flowing blood comes into direct contact. In this sense, hemorheology plays an important role in determining the characteristics of blood flow, the tissue perfusion, microcirculation and the shear-stress-related endothelial functions in health and disease. In the past decades clinical and experimental studies revealed that micro-rheological parameters, such as red blood cell deformability and aggregation, are influenced by numerous factors, including metabolic ones. However, several questions remained unanswered related to the magnitude and dynamics of changes, border of reversibility/irreversibility, pathophysiology, as well as preventive and therapeutic issues. Thanking to the modern investigative methods a new insight have been provided into the relation of blood rheology and metabolites. This relation has a significance in cardiovascular and metabolic disorders, in inflammatory processes, including sepsis and ischemia-reperfusion, in intensive therapy, sports medicine, as well as in exercise and comparative physiology.
This Special Issue is dedicated to the novel findings and recent advances in this field. Clinical or clinically oriented experimental research, or review articles in the context of metabolites/metabolic alterations and blood macro- and micro-rheology will be welcome.
Prof. Dr. Norbert Nemeth

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.
