The intricate interplay between brain network dysfunction and impaired brain energy metabolism lies at the heart of many neurological and psychiatric disorders. Understanding these complex relationships is essential for advancing our knowledge of brain disorders and developing innovative therapeutic strategies. This Research Topic aims to gather cutting-edge research that delves into the mechanisms underpinning brain network dysregulation and energy metabolism deficits in various brain disorders. By fostering collaboration among multidisciplinary experts, our goal is to uncover novel insights that can lead to more effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for these debilitating conditions.
Brain disorders, ranging from neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's to neuropsychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia and depression, present a significant global health challenge. These disorders often share common underlying pathophysiological features, including disruptions in brain network connectivity and energy metabolism. Brain networks are intricate structures that facilitate communication among different brain regions, and disruptions in their function can lead to cognitive, emotional, and motor deficits. Concurrently, energy metabolism is fundamental for sustaining neuronal activities, and impairments in this process can result in neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Investigating the intricate connections between brain network abnormalities and energy metabolism dysfunction is crucial for unraveling the complexities of brain disorders and developing targeted interventions.
We invite researchers from diverse fields, including neuroscience, neurology, psychiatry, biochemistry, and imaging sciences, to contribute to our Research Topic. Explore key themes within brain network and energy metabolism impairments in brain disorders:
1. Understand the mechanisms driving brain network disruption and their impact on disease progression.
2. Gain insights into the significance of mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic pathways in brain disorders.
3. Utilize neuroimaging and electrophysiology to evaluate brain network integrity and energy metabolism.
4. Discover biomarkers for early diagnosis and continuous monitoring of brain disorders.
5. Explore therapeutic interventions targeting brain network function and energy metabolism.
We welcome original research, reviews, mini-reviews, and opinion pieces that advance our understanding of these aspects. Our aim is to foster collaboration, unite diverse perspectives, and expedite progress in the field. Ultimately, we aspire to enhance the quality of life for those with brain disorders. Join us in unraveling the complexities of brain network networks and energy metabolism impairments and translating this knowledge into meaningful clinical applications.
