Pharmacogenetics and Precision Medicine:We are especially interested in GWAS studies and studies reporting pharmacogenetic data that are relevant in terms of safety and efficacy of drugs. They must provide insight into novel genomic or therapeutic associations that can help guide therapy selection or suggest new indications for established drugs. Studies can also provide details of exceptional responses in limited numbers of patients.We also publish n=1 studies of exceptional responses, provided they are backed up by compelling genomic or experimental data.Studies must include full clinical description of the case, along with details of the response and supporting molecular information. The molecular information should support the clinical observations and offer a definitive pharmacogenomic insight. Standard clinical sequencing assays (Foundation ONE, Genoptix etc) are only appropriate when the therapeutic or phenotypic response is novel. Ideally, the observational patient studies should be supported by lab based functional data.Bioactive molecules derived from medicinal plants or natural products:New, effective bioactive molecules;Drug target identification;Treat... mechanism;Mechanism investigation with -omics and computational technologies;Combina... therapy with natural products;Multi-targe... and network pharmacology;Herbal bioinformatics;Preci... medicine of natural products;Evidenced-b... research and clinical trials.Studies reporting on plant extracts in which the active principle(s) has not been defined do not fall into the scope of this journal. Exceptions can be made for papers addressing the mechanisms of actions or the clinical applications of standardized herbal preparations. Clinical studies on commercially-availab... nutraceuticals are also taken into consideration.Rare diseases and orphan drugs, and drug repositioningWe also publish articles focusing on:Gastrointestinal and urogenital apparatuses when involving pharmacological issues;Pharmacology of tissue repair/regeneration;... of aging;Nutraceuticals (if relevant to human disease);Pharmacoeco... do not publish:Papers reporting pharmacological activities of novel compounds if no proper controls with known substancesare performed;Bioequival... studies or studies reporting only the pharmacokinetics profile of a compound;Descriptive pharmacovigilance studies;Single dose/concentration studies and those measuring only one endpoint.
