Atherosclerosis

Impact factor: 4.9

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:Pathophysiology 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.Prevention 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.Diagnostics 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.Translational 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.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta: Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids

ISSN: 1388-1981
5 Year impact factor: 4.3
Impact factor: 3.9

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.

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids

ISSN: 0009-3084
5 Year impact factor: 3
Impact factor: 3.4

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids publishes research papers and review articles on chemical and physical aspects of lipids with primary emphasis on the relationship of these properties to biological functions and to biomedical applications.Accordingly, the journal covers: advances in synthetic and analytical lipid methodology; mass-spectrometry of lipids; chemical and physical characterisation of isolated structures; thermodynamics, phase behaviour, topology and dynamics of lipid assemblies; physicochemical studies into lipid-lipid and lipid-protein interactions in lipoproteins and in natural and model membranes; movement of lipids within, across and between membranes; intracellular lipid transfer; structure-function relationships and the nature of lipid-derived second messengers; chemical, physical and functional alterations of lipids induced by free radicals; enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms of lipid peroxidation in cells, tissues, biofluids; oxidative lipidomics; and the role of lipids in the regulation of membrane-dependent biological processes.Reviews, full articles and short communications will be considered for publication in each issue. Special Issues will consist of invited contributions organized and edited to cover specific themes.

Progress in Lipid Research

ISSN: 0163-7827
5 Year impact factor: 15.7
Impact factor: 14

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 list of key references. 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 homeostatis; eosinophils; cyclooxygenases, lipoxygenases, and cytochrome P450 monooxygenases.Kent Chapman: Plant lipid metabolism; plant lipid signaling; membranes; oilseeds; lipid storage; compartmentalization; organelle biogenesis; lipid analysis.John Harwood: Metabolism and function of acyl lipids; n-3 polyunsatruated fatty acids; oil accumulation in crops; algal lipids; regulation of metabolism; lipids in disease.Gabor Tigyi: Lysophospholipids, lysophosphatidic acid, sphingosine-1-phosphate, lipid signaling, radiation biology, drug discovery.Markus Wenk: Structure, function and metabolism of membrane lipids; application of lipidomics in drug and biomarker development; role of lipid metabolism in neurobiology.
