Special Issue Description

Lipid metabolism is the synthesis and degradation of lipids in cells, which includes the breakdown or storage of fats for energy as well as the synthesis of structural and functional lipids, such as those involved in cell membrane construction. These fats are obtained from food or synthesized by the liver in animals. Lipogenesis is the process by which these fats are synthesized. The majority of lipids found in the human body as a result of food consumption are triglycerides and cholesterol. Fatty acids and membrane lipids are two other types of lipids found in the body. Lipid metabolism is frequently thought of as the digestion and absorption of dietary fat; however, organisms can obtain energy from two sources of fat: consumed dietary fats and stored fat. Both sources of fat are used by vertebrates (including humans) to generate energy for organs such as the heart to function. Because lipids are hydrophobic molecules, they must be dissolved before metabolism can begin. Hydrolysis, which occurs with the help of various enzymes in the digestive system, is a common starting point for lipid metabolism. Plants also have lipid metabolism, though the processes differ slightly from those found in animals.

Manuscript Submission information

Manuscripts should be submitted online via the manuscript Engine. Once you register on APID, 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 email address:[email protected] 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 Double-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for the submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page.
