Atherosclerosis brings together, from all sources, papers concerned with investigation on atherosclerosis, its risk factors, and clinical manifestations. Atherosclerosis covers basic and translational clinical and population research approaches to arterial and vascular biology and disease, as well as their risk factors which include: disturbances of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism, diabetesand hypertension, thrombosis, and inflammation. Atherosclerosis particularly welcomes original or review papers regarding the pathogenesis, the environmental, genetic, and epigenetic basis, and the diagnosis, treatment, and risk factors of atherosclerosis and related diseases.Complimentary online access is available to all members of the European Atherosclerosis Society.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta: Molecular Basis of Disease

  • ISSN: 0925-4439
  • 5 Year impact factor: 5.5
  • Impact factor: 4.2
BBA Molecular Basis of Disease addresses the biochemistry and molecular genetics of disease processes and models of human disease. This journal covers aspects of aging, cancer, metabolic-, neurological-, and immunological-based disease. Manuscripts focused on using animal models to elucidate biochemical and mechanistic insight in each of these conditions, are particularly encouraged. Manuscripts should emphasize the underlying mechanisms of disease pathways and provide novel contributions to the understanding and/or treatment of these disorders. Highly descriptive and method development submissions may be declined without full review.Given the complex regulation of gene expression by a vast network of miRNA's, manuscripts describing the regulation of (disease-associated) genes by single miRNAs will only be considered if they provide genuine, novel insight in a disease mechanism. Further, studies restricted to a single cell line will not be considered unless they present truly novel insights.Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission.

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.

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology

  • ISSN: 0303-7207
  • 5 Year impact factor: 3.7
  • Impact factor: 3.8
Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology was established in 1974 to meet the demand for integrated publication on all aspects related to the genetic and biochemical effects, synthesis and secretions of extracellular signals (hormones, neurotransmitters, etc.) and to the understanding of cellular regulatory mechanisms involved in hormonal control.The journal is fulfilling this aim by publishing full-length original research papers, rapid papers, reviews, invited Special Issues, and book reviews.The scope encompasses all subjects related to genetic, epigenetic, biochemical, and molecular aspects of endocrine research and cell regulation. These include: (1) mechanisms of action of extracellular signals (hormones, neurotransmitters, etc.), (2) interaction of these factors with receptors, (3) generation, action and role of intracellular signals such as cyclic nucleotides and calcium, (4) hormone-regulated gene expression, (5) impact of gene structure on endocrine functions, (6) structure and physicochemical properties of hormones, hormone receptors and other hormone-binding components, (7) synthesis, secretion, metabolism and inactivation of hormones, neurotransmitters, etc. (8) hormonal control of differentiation, (9) related control mechanisms in non-mammalian systems, (10) methodological and theoretical aspects related to hormonal control processes, (11) clinical and translational studies as far as they throw new light on basic research in this field, (12) control of intermediary metabolism at the cellular level, (13) ultrastructural aspects related to hormone secretion and action, (14) comparative aspects of endocrinology only if they elucidate novel hormonal mechanisms.
