Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to inform our readers about the biomarkers of non-communicable diseases, such as obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), thyroid gland diseases, and cancer. The role of various biomarkers with regard to metabolic-related disorders, such as obesity, diabetes mellitus, NAFLD, metabolic syndrome, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, hyperparathyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, and adrenal gland diseases, will be elaborated upon. Biomarkers, such as Vitamin D, omentin, various adipokines, cardiac biomarkers, inflammatory biomarkers, the gut microbiome, etc., will be further discussed in relation to non-communicable diseases. Apart from obesity and metabolic-related disorders, the role of biomarkers in cancer, especially in obesity-related cancers such as breast cancer and colorectal cancer, will be thoroughly explored.
Prof. Dr. Jorge Joven
Guest Editor
