Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The first volume of the Special Issue Dietary Selenium and Its Antioxidant Properties Related to Growth, Lipid and Energy Metabolism, has received good citations, especially the publications related to the use of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs). SeNPs have been reported to have many unique biological activities since they have a wide surface, and are more biologically available with less Se. These characteristics make SeNPs less toxic and highly effective.
The last Special Issue highlighted the immunomodulatory and metabolic characteristics of SeNPs. Moreover, other important contributions addressed different aspects of Se on adipose tissue as well as obesity, adipose-tissue insulin sensitivity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) progression and dyslipidemia. Some of these alterations are described in adults, adolescent and offspring animals, pointing to a correct dietary Se intake as a crucial element to reproductive physiology. In this second release, we welcome papers concerning Se, SeNPs and selenoproteins and their relationship to oxidative stress, growth and lipid and energy metabolism, which could lead to metabolic disorders.

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.

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.
