Pharmacological Research - Natural Products (PRENAP) publishes original, replications (if relevant for the scientific community), and follow-up studies, as well as scope and systematic reviews and meta-analysis, of the pharmacological and toxicological properties of extracts and single molecules of natural origin, either isolated or synthesized, and its derivatives. PRENAP also welcomes pre-registration (phase-I) and phase-II registered reports in the field.The journal scope covers all fields of pharmacology and toxicology (experimental and clinical), pharmacognosy, ethnopharmacology, and phytochemistry of natural products.PRENAP is a sound-science journal, therefore novelty and perceived impact will not be considered in the evaluation process. However, the journal will focus on quality studies that advance our knowledge and will take measures to guarantee the replicability of the published material.
Pharmacological Research - Reports (PREREP) is a sound-science journal dedicated to publishing a wide range of topics in biomedical sciences that move the pharmacology field forward. It provides a venue through which researchers can rapidly communicate original investigation, with stronger focus on methodological rigor and transparency in reporting, rather than on the perceived impact of the novelty of the findings. Our broad scope covers:In vitro and in vivo studies assessing the effects of bioactive compounds (synthetic or derived from natural sources) and their mechanism of action;Drug development (target identification and validation, PK/PD, preclinical and toxicological assessments);Experim... validation and new methods in pharmacology;Negativ... findings based on hypothesis-driven and well-controlled experiments;Studies focusing on reproducibility in pharmacology;Real world evidence on medical treatments;Case studies, Phase I and II studiesReview articles with a systematic approach and/or critical appraisal of the published literatureResearch reports on educational initiatives in pharmacology
