Cell-to-Cell Metabolic Cross-Talk in Physiology and Pathology—2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to present the second edition of the Special Issue on Cells, which continues to explore the intricate mechanisms and pathophysiological significance of the metabolic crosstalk between cells. This edition will feature a curated selection of papers from esteemed contributors, building upon the success of the inaugural edition.

The focus of this Special Issue remains on advancing our understanding of the dynamic interplay between cellular components, shedding light on the profound implications of the metabolic crosstalk in both physiology and pathology. The diverse range of topics covered in this collection reflects the multifaceted nature of cell-to-cell interactions, exploring key areas such as cell cycle regulation, the role of exosomes and extracellular vesicles, the interplay between cell adhesion and metabolism, the connection between cell death regulation and metabolism, the dynamic relationship between immune cells and the tissue microenvironment, and the compartmentalization of cellular signaling.

As we delve deeper into the complexities of exosomes, cell death, metabolism, diseases, autophagy, cell adhesion, cell migration, cell signaling, cell proliferation, and the intricate dynamics within the tissue microenvironment, this Special Issue aims to contribute valuable insights to the scientific community.

Submitted papers have undergone a rigorous peer review process, ensuring the publication of high-quality research results, developments and applications.

We hope that the knowledge shared within these pages will stimulate further research and discussions, fostering advancements in the field of cell biology and metabolic crosstalk.
