Progress in Biophysics & Molecular Biology
Aims and Scope: Progress in Biophysics &Molecular Biology is an international review journal and covers the ground between the physical and biological sciences since its launch in 1950. It indicates to the physicist the great variety of unsolved problems awaiting attention in biology and medicine. The biologist and biochemist will find that this journal presents new and stimulating ideas and novel approaches to studying and influencing structural and functional properties of the living organism. This journal will be of particular interest to biophysicists, biologists, biochemists, cell physiologists, systems biologists, and molecular biologists. The purpose of the journal is to present invited, informative and critical reviews of recent advances in different aspects of biophysics and molecular biology. The Editors welcome suggestions of topics and potential authors. As the scope of Progress in Biophysics &Molecular Biology is wide and of interest to scientists in many disciplines, authors should treat their subject matter in a manner that is authoritative yet also easily comprehensible to those who are not experts in the field. Whilst the aim of the journal is primarily to publish substantial articles reviewing progress over an extensive field, review articles covering recent advances on more limited topics are also welcome. In addition, the journal publishes many Thematic Special Issues dedicated to specific areas of investigation - often linked to high-level international conferences - that contain both substantive reviews and original research papers.- ISSN: 0079-6107

Box 11 24 12, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates is the Editor-in-Chief. The journal has a broad international perspective.Types of Papers: - Original Article- Review Article- Editorial- Letter to the Editor- Correspondence- Book Review- Discussion- Opinion Paper- ISSN: 0303-8467
Matrix Biology
Affiliated with the American Society for Matrix Biology and the International Society for Matrix BiologyMatrix Biology is the leading journal devoted to publishing the latest research on molecular components of the extracellular matrix and the biological impact of cellular interactions with extracellular matrices. The journal welcome articles in any area of extracellular matrix research that provide new mechanistic and functional insights, have significant potential impact for the field, or which challenge longstanding biological paradigms. Matrix Biology publishes original studies in, but not limited to, cell and molecular biology, developmental biology, genetics, structural biology, chronobiology, infection and immunity, immunology, virology, signaling, disease mechanisms, and therapeutics related to the extracellular matrix and its interactions with cells. Papers considered for peer review document substantial advances for the field of extracellular matrix and/or cell-matrix interactions. In addition to original research articles, Matrix Biology welcomes highly timely, impactful reviews. Please view our Guide for Authors for more information. Matrix Biology was established in 1980 as Collagen and Related Research, an international scientific journal for publication of research on the extracellular matrix. The journal became Matrix (1989-1993) and then Matrix Biology in 1994 to reflect the expansion of knowledge and interest in the diversity of extracellular matrix-associated molecules and their importance in development, health, and disease.Matrix Biology, has a companion title, Matrix Biology Plus. Matrix Biology Plus is an online-only, open access journal that welcomes papers reporting novel advances in the field of matrix biology and related research tools and resources without a strict requirement for novel biological mechanisms.- ISSN: 0945-053X
Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology
Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology (FIN) is comprised of comprehensive review articles, systematic reviews, opinion pieces, and meta-analyses. Most of the reviews are invited but we welcome unsolicited reviews and meta-analyses, and proposals for thematic special issues provided they meet the quality threshold of the journal. We also encourage authors to submit proposals for commentaries which succinctly raise new ideas or provide additional analysis to further explore ramifications of an article published in the journal.Research areas of interest include:Endocrine interactions that influence neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative diseaseSex differences in clinical populations and in pre-clinical modelsStress and stress systems interactions with health and diseaseNeuroendocrin... influences on health across the lifespan from development, puberty, adulthood and agingMicrobiota/neur... interactions with health and diseaseNeuroendocrin... -immune interactions: links to behavior and diseaseIntegrative cellular, molecular and behavioral aspects of hormonally active neuropeptidesCompara... and clinical neuroendocrinologyNe... control of energy balance, glucose homeostasis, and metabolism- ISSN: 0091-3022
Zoologischer Anzeiger
Zoologischer Anzeiger (A Journal of Comparative Zoology) is devoted to comparative zoology with a special emphasis on morphology, systematics, biogeography, and evolutionary biology targeting all metazoans, both modern and extinct. The journal also considers taxonomic submissions addressing a broader systematic and/or evolutionary context. The overall aim of the journal is to contribute to our understanding of the organismic world from an evolutionary perspective.- ISSN: 0044-5231

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism
Molecular Genetics and Metabolism is the official journal of the Society for Inherited Metabolic Disorders, dedicated to advancing the understanding of inborn metabolic diseases and metabolic dysfunction in Mendelian conditions, through innovative research in molecular genetics and metabolic pathways.The journal publishes high-quality original full-length research articles, short communications and reviews, studied in human patients, animal models, cellular systems, and computational frameworks. The journal does not consider case reports, which should be directed to the companion title, Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports.Molecular Genetics and Metabolism spans the fundamental, translational, and clinical research domains.The journal considers articles on the following topics:Fundamental mechanisms of inherited metabolic diseases:Studies on pathophysiology in inborn metabolic disease,Molecular mechanisms of enzyme function and dysfunction in metabolic processes,Mechanisti... studies of disease at the cellular and biochemical levels,Investigation... into mitochondrial function and its role in inherited metabolic disorders,Studies on cellular metabolism, including bioenergetics and metabolic flux,Genetic and epigenetic mechanisms influencing metabolic pathways,Crosstalk between metabolic pathways using multi-OMICS technologies, including proteomics, metabolomics, etc,Innovations in experimental techniques, such as gene editing,Study of metabolic dysfunction in congenital disorders,Bioinforma... and computational models.Translational and clinical investigations:Advan... in metabolic engineering, gene therapy, and personalized medicine; evaluation of novel therapeutic approaches.Clinical trials and longitudinal studies assessing the outcomes of early intervention and treatment strategies.Novel methods in newborn screening and their validated results.Diagnosis of Inherited Metabolic Diseases, including validation of new diagnostic approaches.Definitio... of new phenotypes and description of novel genetic disordersPatient-cen... research focusing on the management, quality of life and healthcare needs.Clinical guidelines and treatment protocols for IMDs.Studies primarily focused on acquired metabolic conditions, such as metabolic syndrome, obesity, lifestyle-associated metabolic disorders, non-inherited cancers, or other multifactorial metabolic diseases, are outside the scope of the journal.Authors are also welcome to submit to the journal's gold open access companion title, Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, which welcomes, in addition to case reports, brief research articles, sequence reports, and letters to the editors.- ISSN: 1096-7192
