The International Journal for Experimental and Clinical Reproductive ImmunobiologyAffiliated with the European Society of Reproductive Immunology and with the International Society for Immunology of Reproduction and the Japanese Society for Immunology of ReproductionThe aim of the Journal of Reproductive Immunology is to provide the critical forum for the dissemination of results from high quality research in all aspects of experimental, animal and clinical reproductive immunobiology.This encompasses normal and pathological processes of: * Male and Female Reproductive Tracts * Gametogenesis and Embryogenesis * Implantation and Placental Development * Gestation and Parturition * Mammary Gland and Lactation.Including: * Infectious disease, including STDs * Inflammation * Autoimmunity * Mucosal Immunology * Cytokines and Other Immune Mediators * Immunoendocrinology * Reproductive Immunotherapies * Immunogenetics * Developmental Immunology * Immunology of Reproductive Cancers * Application of Immunological Techniques in Eluciation of Reproductive Processes or Dysfunction.The international character of the Journal is reflected in the breadth of its Editorial Board and commitment to publish new and outstanding studies in different aspects of reproductive immunobiology from all five continents. Within the Journal, the Editors wish to bridge the gap between basic and clinical studies in all subareas of research relevant to reproductive immunobiology.

Life Sciences

ISSN: 0024-3205
5 Year impact factor: 5.3
Impact factor: 5.2

Life Sciences is an international journal publishing articles that emphasize the molecular, cellular, and functional basis of therapy. The journal emphasizes the understanding of mechanism that is relevant to all aspects of human disease and translation to patients. All articles are rigorously reviewed.The Journal favors publication of full-length papers where modern scientific technologies are used to explain molecular, cellular and physiological mechanisms. Articles that merely report observations are rarely accepted. Recommendations from the Declaration of Helsinki or NIH guidelines for care and use of laboratory animals must be adhered to. Articles should be written at a level accessible to readers who are non-specialists in the topic of the article themselves, but who are interested in the research. The Journal welcomes reviews on topics of wide interest to investigators in the life sciences. We particularly encourage submission of brief, focused reviews containing high-quality artwork and require the use of mechanistic summary diagrams.Manuscripts should present novel preclinical findings addressing questions of biological significance to human disease. Studies that fail to do so may be rejected without review. Quantitative conclusions must be based on truly quantitative methods. Life Sciences does not publish work on the actions of biological extracts of unknown chemical composition. Compounds studied must be of known chemical structure and concentration. The study must be reproducible; materials used must be available to other researchers so they can repeat the experiment. Clinical studies may be considered if they expand understanding of mechanism, but the journal does not encourage clinical trial reports.Four common reasons for rejection include: out of scope (the manuscript does not conform to the goal of identification of mechanisms related to therapy for human disease); too preliminary (manuscript is based on a limited amount of experimental data diminishing significance); lack of novelty (manuscript is well done but does not address a significant question); unidentified structure (actions of biological extracts of unknown chemical composition).

A Journal on Infectious Agents and Host Defenses A publication of the Institut PasteurThis journal has no page charges, publication is free of charge.Microbes and Infection publishes 8 peer-reviewed issues per year in all fields of infection and immunity, covering the different levels of host-microbe interactions, and in particular:the molecular biology and cell biology of the crosstalk between hosts (human and model organisms) and microbes (viruses, bacteria, parasites and fungi), including molecular virulence and evasion mechanisms.the immune response to infection, including pathogenesis and host susceptibility.emerging human infectious diseases.systems immunology.molecular epidemiology/genetics of host pathogen interactions.microbiota and host "interactions".vaccine development, including novel strategies and adjuvants.Clinical studies, accounts of clinical trials and biomarker studies in infectious diseases, unless purely descriptive, are within the scope of the journal.Microbes and Infection publishes articles on human pathogens or pathogens of model systems. However, articles on other microbes can be published if they contribute to our understanding of basic mechanisms of host-pathogen interactions. Purely descriptive and preliminary studies are discouraged.Reviews of a major topic of current interest must be commissioned by a Microbes and Infection editor. Unsolicited contributions and presubmission enquiries will not be considered.Special issues focus on the present knowledge of a virulent microbe and the disease it causes, the immune response in infectious disease, or on critical issues relevant to the scope of the journal.The journal is entering its 20th year of publication, and Essential Science IndicatorsSM (ESI) states that "Microbes and Infection has had a significant impact in the field of Immunology." https://www.editorialmanager.com/MICINF/default.aspxhttps://www.pasteur.fr/fr/ceris/publications-scientifiques/microbes-infectionThe full-text articles, etc, are available at:https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/microbes-and-infection

Molecular Immunology

ISSN: 0161-5890
5 Year impact factor: 3.6
Impact factor: 3.2

Molecular Immunology publishes original articles, reviews and commentaries on all areas of immunology, with a particular focus on description of cellular, biochemical or genetic mechanisms underlying immunological phenomena. Studies on all model organisms, from invertebrates to humans, are suitable. Examples include, but are not restricted to:Infection, autoimmunity, transplantation, immunodeficiencies, inflammation and tumor immunologyMechanisms of induction, regulation and termination of innate and adaptive immunityIntercellular communication, cooperation and regulationIntracellular mechanisms of immunity (endocytosis, protein trafficking, pathogen recognition, antigen presentation, etc)Mechanisms of action of the cells and molecules of the immune systemStructural analysisDevelopment of the immune systemComparative immunology and evolution of the immune system"Omics" studies and bioinformaticsVaccines, biotechnology and therapeutic manipulation of the immune system (therapeutic antibodies, cytokines, cellular therapies, etc)Technical developmentsArticles based primarily on studies in silico must adhere to the following principles; (i) The article must report novel analytical tools, approaches and/or databases rather than using publicly available ones; or (ii) The article must include substantial experimental validation of the conclusions obtained in silico.Manuscripts related to regulatory RNA (e.g. microRNAs, lncRNAs or circRNAs) are welcome but please note: (i) they must show clear physiological relevance supported by in vivo results or clinical observations; (ii) Correlations between regulatory RNA expression with human diseases should be experimentally validated; (iii) Functions associated with the regulatory RNAs must within the scope of the journal i.e. inflammation and/or immune responses.To be acceptable for publication, studies that describe correlations between disease and genetic polymorphisms would normally be required to include novel mechanistic findings underlying the associations.Clinical studies correlating disease and measurements of a molecule or cell type would likewise not be suitable for publication without novel mechanistic insights.Studies describing pharmacological agents are welcome if they provide significant novelty on the mechanisms of action.
