  • The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

    • ISSN: 0960-0760
    General The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is devoted to experimental and theoretical developments in areas related to steroids, sterols, hopanoids, vitamin D and lipids. JSBMB is interested in functional analyses of signal transduction pathways, impact on molecular phenotypes and clinical outcome, and metabolomics of these molecules. Our journal publishes a variety of contributions, including:Original research articlesGeneral and focused reviewsMini-reviews (addressing controversial or hot contemporary topics)Rapid communications (brief articles of particular interest and clear novelty).Selected cutting-edge topics are addressed in Special Issues managed by Guest Editors. Special Issues contain both commissioned reviews and original research papers to provide comprehensive coverage of specific topics. Regardless of the type of submission, all submissions undergo rigorous peer-review prior to publication.ScopeMan... related to unsolved issues in genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, structural biology, steroid chemistry, cell biology, evolution, comparative endocrinology, molecular medicine, translational research and clinical medicine, and systems biology “omics” are encouraged.Specific aimsEnhancement of our understanding, and the development of approaches to study the interplay between the environment, genomes, metabolism and diseaseStudies on signal transduction pathways, functional annotation of genes and kinetics of metabolic pathwaysAnalyses of mechanisms underlying homeostasis in aging, health and diseaseEffects of ethnicity on signal transduction pathways and reference valuesStudies on steroids, molecular endocrinology and metabolism in transgender individualsInvestiga... on target and off-target effects for therapies or drugs (including doping and anabolic steroids)Provision of new analysis tools, synthesis and analysis methods, and reference dataCreation of enduring and validated resources for metabolomics and systems biology analysesExclusion criteria for manuscriptsWe do not accept data that have been as a whole, or in part, published elsewhere (does not apply to data that has been deposited in a data repository or documents that have been posted on a preprint server)We do not accept case descriptions or clinical descriptions of cohorts without analyses of mechanisms leading to changed phenotypesWe do not accept observations collected by experiments in a single cell line, single sample of organism, reagents or tools that are not validated (e.g. antibodies that are not characterized, origin and identity of cells that are not depicted, analytical methods not characterised for LOD, precision and accuracy)We do not accept data based on technical replicates rather than biological replicates, or the use of inappropriate statistical analysesWe do not accept GWAS without functional analyses explaining associations or at least a functional discussions on correlationsWe do not accept manuscripts prepared using generative AI.

    The journal Arthropod Structure & Development publishes original research and review articles dealing with all levels of fossil and extant arthropod structure, morphology, and development in a comparative, functional, paleontological, phylogenetic, and evolutionary framework. Structures range from gene expression and ultrastructure to morphological body organization, including at the levels of cells, tissues, and organs. Developmental aspects comprise pattern formation, cell lineage, organogenesis, regeneration, embryology, and postembryonic development. Arthropod Structure & Development invites suggestions for special issues. Specifically, the following research areas are covered:• Exoskeleton, integument, musculature, and glands. • Sensory structures, central nervous systems, and neuroendocrine systems. • Circulatory, respiratory, visceral, and excretory organs. • Reproductive systems, organogenesis, and repair. • Embryology, pattern formation, and development. • Comparative morphology from the phylogenetic perspective. • Paleontology.A thorough and efficient peer-review system with the assistance of section editors and advisory board members of world-wide reputation will ensure that published papers conform to high scientific standards. Review articles and article series on relevant topics will be invited at regular intervals and will be subject to peer-review. Particular emphasis will be given to high quality line and half-tone illustrations. Exceptional colour plates will be printed free of charge. Supplementary 3-D and videos and other electronic addenda can be submitted with the manuscript and published on the journal's website after acceptance.

    Journal of Genetics and Genomics (JGG), founded in 1974 and previously known as Acta Genetica Sinica, is an international journal publishing peer-reviewed articles of novel and significant discoveries in all areas of biology and biomedicine.JGG publishes papers reporting findings of general interest that provide significant insights into important biological processes in any living organisms, from microbes to plants, animals, and humans. The primary criterion for publication in JGG is whether the results report novel discoveries, mechanistic insights, or new technologies/tools and resources. In addition to research articles, we also publish reviews or opinion articles on recent cutting-edge studies and advances. We also welcome fast-track papers and presubmission inquiry.

  • Molecular Aspects of Medicine

    • ISSN: 0098-2997
    Molecular Aspects of Medicine is a review journal for Physicians and Biomedical Scientists and an official journal of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Molecular Aspects of Medicine aims to encourage the bridging of the gap between clinicians of all relevant specialities and biomedical scientists. The journal anticipates that most of the authors contributing to the series will be practising clinical scientists who will develop their own personal perspective as an extended review on the molecular aspects of a field of medicine in which they are working, addressing themselves both to the doctor who is ill-at-ease with basic science, and to the basic scientist with little awareness of the problems of clinical practice.It publishes articles on a spectrum of topics in medicine to illustrate not only the molecular insights that derive from the application of basic science, but also the variety of challenging problems that medicine is able to offer the basic scientist.Submission... on from biochemistry and molecular and cell biology to physiology, pharmacology and pathology are particularly welcomed.
