Biochimica et Biophysica Acta: Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids
BBA Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids publishes papers on original research dealing with novel aspects of lipid biology including the biosynthesis, degradation, and transport of lipids, the role of lipids and the lipidome in cells and whole organisms, and the regulation of lipid metabolism and function in normative health and disease states.Manuscripts should significantly advance the understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying biological processes in which lipids are involved using biochemical, biophysical, cell and molecular biological, genetic, or physiological approaches. Papers detailing novel methodology should also include biochemical, molecular, or functional insight in the area of lipids. Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission.

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.

Genomics StudiesComparative genomics studies (e.g., GWAS) will only be considered if they provide specific insights into the structural and/or functional properties of individual genes.Incremental WorkResearch that offers incremental advancements without significant novelty or impact will generally be declined.- ISSN: 0925-4439
Endocrine Practice
Endocrine Practice, the flagship journal of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology, is a double-blind, peer-reviewed journal publishing the latest clinical information on the treatment of diabetes, nutrition and obesity, thyroid disease, bone and parathyroid disease, lipid and cardiovascular health, and pituitary, gonad, adrenal, and neuroendocrine disorders.The journal is intended to enhance the clinical knowledge, treatment, and management of pediatric and adult endocrine diseases for the endocrinologist and endocrine care community, and publishes original research, clinical trials, reviews, commentaries, and editorials. Special articles include AACE's clinical guidance documents: clinical practice guidelines, consensus statements, and treatment algorithms.- ISSN: 1530-891X
Progress in Lipid Research
Publishing Invited ReviewsThe importance of lipids as one of the fundamental classes of biological compounds is well established. The application of our of the biochemistry, chemistry and physiology of lipids to biotechnology, the fats and oils industry and medicine have continued to expand apace. In addition new dimensions such as lipid biophysics, especially with relevance to membranes and lipoproteins, and basic liposome research and applications have been added. To cope with all these advances in knowledge a journal is needed to review recent progress in particular fields and to set current research against its historical background. Progress in Lipid Research fulfils this role.Each volume contains up-to-date surveys of special aspects of lipid research. The invited reviews are comprehensive enough to provide sufficient overview but concentrate on reporting and critically appraising the most recent data. Subjects are chosen for their timeliness or because major developments have taken place in the last few years. They include methodological reviews as well as chemical, biochemical and medical articles. All lipid compounds and derivatives are covered, ranging from fatty acids and other simple molecules, through steroids, terpenoids and phospho- or glycolipids to complex structures such as lipoproteins and biological membranes. We hope that those whose main interest is in lipid biophysics and liposome research will join as new readers, benefiting from the journal's classical aspects of lipid metabolism, lipids in signal transduction and lipid enzymology, and that current readers will benefit from the exposure to top quality research on the new aspects.PLR solely publishes review articles, and submissions are by invitation only. If you have not been invited, but would like to have a review article considered, please send your proposal to the Editorial Office (Mrs. Andy Deelen at [email protected]... thereby indicating which editor has the most appropriate expertise to handle the manuscript. Proposals must include a short abstract, proposed table of contents/chapters, a representative figure (if relevant), and a list of key references. Also provide the following information for all co-authors: affiliations, email addresses, and ORCID iDs. The number of co-authors is limited to five and each author is expected to make a substantial contribution to the writing of the manuscript. Your cover letter should include a brief description of the three most significant research papers relevant to the area of the review that are published by the authors’ research group, and an explanation of the current interest and significance to the broad readership of the journal, that is, compelling reasons why the review should be considered. If possible, please supply a timeline for submission of your article. After assessment of the proposal by the Editors, we will let you know whether it is suitable for inclusion in the journal.Editors and their expertise:Makoto Arita: Polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-derived mediators; LC-MS/MS-based lipidomics; role of lipid mediators in inflammation and tissue homeostasis; eosinophils; cyclooxygenases, lipoxygenases, and cytochrome P450 monooxygenases.
