Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mitochondrial dysfunctions intervene in multiple pathologies because of mitochondria’s role in energy production and its involvement in various signaling pathways. Moreover metabolic alterations were reported in cytopathology of mitochondrial diseases, cancer, infections and even neurodegenerative diseases. Despite the different tissues affected, pathophysiological mechanisms are continuously being deciphered, allowing us to increase our knowledge on the physiology of this organelle and highlighting specific therapeutic targets related.
In this Special Issue entitled “Mitochondria and Energy Metabolism Reprogramming in Diseases”, the latest alterations regarding mitochondrial functions are reported and discussed. The purpose consists in bringing new insights on mitochondrial altered functions, and metabolic remodeling on diseases with a mitochondrial implication.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
