  • Gene Expression Patterns

    • ISSN: 1567-133X
    Gene Expression Patterns is devoted to the rapid publication of high quality studies of gene expression in development. Studies using cell culture are also suitable if clearly relevant to development, e.g., analysis of key regulatory genes or of gene sets in the maintenance or differentiation of stem cells. Key areas of interest include:In-situ studies such as expression patterns of important or interesting genes at all levels, including transcription and protein expressionTemporal studies of large gene sets during developmentTransgeni... studies to study cell lineage in tissue formation"Omic" studies: In addition of the aims described above, Gene Expression Patterns will publish "Omics" studies (genomics, transcriptomic, proteomics, including single cell RNAseq, etc) relevant for embryo development.

  • Ageing Research Reviews

    • ISSN: 1568-1637
    As the average human life expectancy has increased, so too has the impact of ageing and age-related disease on our society. Ageing research is now the focus of thousands of laboratories that include leaders in the areas of genetics, molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, and behaviour. Ageing Research Reviews (ARR) covers the trends in this field. It is designed to fill a large void, namely, a source for critical reviews and viewpoints on emerging findings on mechanisms of ageing and age-related disease. Rapid advances in understanding of mechanisms that control cellular proliferation, differentiation and survival are leading to new insight into the regulation of ageing. From telomerase to stem cells to energy and oxyradical metabolism, this is an exciting new era in the multidisciplinary field of ageing research. The cellular and molecular underpinnings of manipulations that extend lifespan, such as caloric restriction, are being identified and novel approaches for preventing age-related diseases are being developed. ARR publishes articles on focussed topics selected from the broad field of ageing research, with an emphasis on cellular and molecular mechanisms of the aging process and age-related diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and neurodegenerative disorders. Applications of basic ageing research to lifespan extension and disease prevention are also covered in this journal.

  • Differentiation

    • ISSN: 0301-4681
    Differentiation is a journal published on behalf of the International Society of Differentiation. It publishes articles on cell & tissue differentiation, organogenesis, development, cellular structure and function. Submissions on differentiation at the molecular, cellular and tissue levels, and the use of transgenic, targeted mutagenesis, transcriptomic, computational and synthetic approaches to problems of differentiation are particularly welcomed.Differentia... publishes full-length articles and research reports containing original work in any of these areas. We also welcome reviews and commentaries on topics of current interest, as well as perspectives.The journal publishes topics including: • Embryonic patterning and organogenesis in diverse research organisms • Human development and congenital malformation • Mechanisms of cell lineage commitment • Stem cell differentiation • Cell reprogramming mechanisms • Stability of the differentiated state • Cell and tissue interactions in vivo and in vitro • Signal transduction pathways in development and differentiation • Differentiation in regeneration and ageing • Therapeutic and synthetic applications of differentiation processes

  • Cells & Development

    • ISSN: 0925-4773
    Cell and Developmental Biology and their Quantitative approaches The Official Journal of The International Society of Developmental BiologistsCells & Development is an international journal covering the areas of cell biology and developmental biology. In addition to publishing work at the interphase of these two disciplines, we also publish work that is purely cell biology as well as classical developmental biology.C&D is the official journal of The International Society of Developmental Biologists (ISDB) which supports the world-wide community of developmental biologists.Cells & Development will consider papers in any area of cell biology or developmental biology, in any model system like animals and plants, using a variety of approaches, such as cellular, biomechanical, molecular, quantitative, computational and theoretical biology.Areas of particular interest include:Cell and tissue morphogenesisCell adhesion and migrationCell shape and polarityBiomechanics... modelling of cell and developmental biologyQuantitative biologyStem cell biologyCell differentiationCell proliferation and cell deathEvo-DevoMembran... trafficMetabolic regulationOrgan and organoid developmentRegenerat... at the interface of physics and biology often include theoretical work which is summarised in a short form in a Supplementary Text or Supplementary Theory. Authors may want to further describe, extend and give higher visibility to the theoretical work that they have published in this way. We are therefore pleased to announce that Cells & Development will now consider submissions of extended and more detailed versions of Supplementary Theory material published in other biological or generalist journals. To be considered, these articles must introduce significant additional material and discussion of previously published results. They must explicitly refer to the article where the Supplementary Theory text was originally published. Reproduction of the previously published figures or text materials should be minimal and appropriately referenced, in accordance with copyright requirements of the other journal.With this initiative, Cells & Development is aiming at promoting quantitative approaches to biology by giving the opportunity to theorists to better explain and highlight their contribution to multidisciplinary studies.Cells & Development does not publish descriptive studies of gene expression patterns and molecular screens; for submission of such studies see Gene Expression Patterns .

  • Gene

    • ISSN: 0378-1119
    Gene is dedicated to advancing understanding of genes and genomes, including their regulation, expression, function, and evolution, and their roles in biological processes, phenotypes, and diseases across all biological systems, from prokaryotes to eukaryotes and viruses.The journal provides a broad and inclusive forum for genetics and genomics research spanning molecular, cellular, organismal, and evolutionary biology. Gene welcomes well-executed studies across diverse organisms and approaches and encourages contributions that provide insights into gene function and genome biology, including those linking genetic or genomic variations to biological processes, phenotypes, or diseases. With its wide scope, the journal supports the dissemination of sound research, while promoting studies that contribute to biological understanding. Computational approaches are welcome, including quantitative, statistical, and data‑driven analyses of genetic and genomic data, provided they are supported by appropriate experimental evidence or other compelling lines of validation that substantiate their biological conclusions.The journal publishes original research articles, reviews, and short communications. Topics covered in the journal include, but are not limited toGene regulation, transcription, RNA biology, and epigeneticsGenome organization, chromatin structure, and nuclear architectureFunction... genomics and multi-omics approachesComputatio... and data-driven approaches to genetics and genomicsGenome editing, genetic engineering, and synthetic biologyHuman, animal, plant, microbial, and viral geneticsDisease and cancer genetics, including molecular mechanisms and genotype–phenotype relationshipsEvoluti... comparative, and population genomicsSystems biology and gene regulatory networksThe journal does not generally consider manuscripts that are solely descriptive, lack clear biological or genetic relevance, or do not support their main conclusions with appropriate analysis or evidence. Case reports and study types that do not directly advance understanding of gene function or genome biology are also outside the scope of the journal.Gene is part of the Gene Family of journals, including Gene Reports, Human Gene, and Plant Gene, providing a comprehensive forum for research on genes, genetic variation, and gene function across biological systems.
