Biochimica et Biophysica Acta: Molecular Basis of Disease
BBA Molecular Basis of Disease addresses the biochemistry and molecular genetics of disease processes and models of human disease.Manuscripts should emphasize the underlying molecular mechanisms of human disease pathways and provide significant advances to the understanding and/or treatment of these disorders.Studies in model organisms or systems are strongly recommended in order to validate mechanistic insights.

Atherosclerosis
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) causes one third of all deaths worldwide and is a major threat to global health. Atherosclerosis aims to provide a comprehensive platform for researchers, clinicians and healthcare professionals to share the latest findings and advances in the field of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis covers a wide range of topics, including:Pathophysi... and Mechanisms: We explore the intricate cellular and molecular processes involved in atherogenesis, from the initial formation of fatty streaks to the development of complex plaques. We also welcome studies on cardiac biology and disease.Risk Factors: We consider manuscripts that examine both traditional and emerging risk factors for atherosclerosis, such as dyslipidaemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, thrombosis and genetic predisposition.Preve... of CVD: Since prevention will become a major focus in the future (see e.g. the European Cardiovascular Health Plan), an important focus will be on preventive strategies, including lifestyle modifications and pharmacological interventions.Diagno... Techniques: We features articles on cutting-edge diagnostic techniques, ranging from invasive procedures such as selective coronary arteriography to non-invasive techniques such as blood biomarkers.Treatment Approaches: Atherosclerosis covers the latest developments in the treatment of atherosclerosis, including lipid-lowering therapies, anti-inflammatory treatments and novel targeted approaches aimed at modifying disease progression and improving clinical outcomes.Translation... Research: We bridges the gap between basic science and clinical practice by highlighting translational studies that bring laboratory findings closer to practical applications in patient care.By fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange between researchers and clinicians, Atherosclerosis aims to accelerate progress in the understanding, prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis, ultimately improving the lives of the millions of people affected by this pervasive disease.- ISSN: 1050-1738

Nutrition Research
An International Publication for Nutrition to Advance Food and Life Science ResearchThe mission of Nutrition Research is to serve as the premier journal for the global communication of nutrition sciences research. Our primary goal is to publish research across the broad field of nutrition sciences that advances human health and promotes clinical applications through a comprehensive understanding of dietary patterns, foods, nutrients, and bioactive food components. This understanding includes exploring diet-related interactions with environmental exposures, human behavior, genetics, and underlying health status.Nutrition Research aims to contribute to the advancement of fundamental knowledge and facilitate research translation in support of public health. We achieve this by publishing nutrition sciences research that establishes mechanisms and demonstrates the efficacy or detriment of dietary exposures and interventions. We welcome studies conducted in humans, populations, and cellular and animal models, particularly those related to biomolecular nutrition, precision nutrition, (multi)omic workflows, nutrition interventions, randomized controlled trials, and novel methodological approaches and techniques that advance the nutrition sciences field. Furthermore, Nutrition Research is committed to promoting diversity, equity, inclusivity, and justice in the field through the dedicated efforts of its globally diverse editorial board. We also actively encourage the submission of research from all geographic regions and topics addressing health inequities and improvements in the health of vulnerable and/or underrepresented populations.Nutritio... Research publishes peer-reviewed research and articles related to all aspects of nutrition sciences that are relevant to the health of humans and populations. We welcome the following types of submissions:Original research articles presenting hypothesis-driven studies performed in humans, or in animal models or cellular systems with physiological relevance to humans.Narrative and systematic reviews and meta-analyses focusing on fundamental and applied nutrition.Research methodology and study design of human clinical trials.Short communications.Edito... and opinions on emerging or controversial nutrition and dietary issues.Since 2010 Nutrition Research has sponsored the David Kritchevsky Graduate Student Award with support provided by Elsevier. This prestigious award recognizes outstanding articles published in Nutrition Research by graduate and professional students. Annually, two awards of $1000 (USD) each are presented to these early-career scientists.- ISSN: 1522-2942
