Research and Methods in Cell and Tissue BiologyActa Histochemica is a classic scientific journal established in 1954 currently focused on basic research and methodological innovations in cell and tissue biology. The aim of the journal is to promote the peer-reviewed publication of original articles and short communications reporting novel results and experimental approaches in the field, as well as comprehensive reviews, letters to the editor and meeting reports, serving as an open forum for the cell and histochemical research community. Manuscripts analysing the mechanisms of functional regulation of living systems at a cell/tissue level, in physiological or pathological conditions, or reporting new techniques and methodological approaches to quantify/visualize cellular activities are particularly welcomed.
Acta Oecologica is venue for the publication of original research articles in ecology. We encourage studies in all areas of ecology, including ecosystem ecology, community ecology, population ecology, conservation ecology and evolutionary ecology. There is no bias with respect to taxon, biome or geographic area. Both theoretical and empirical papers are welcome, but combinations are particularly sought. Priority is given to papers based on explicitly stated hypotheses. Acta Oecologica also accepts review papers.The forum section is reserved for short papers with critical discussion of current issues in ecology, as well as comments and viewpoints on previously published papers. Acta Oecologica does not publish book reviews, but comments on new books are welcome in the forum section.Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Addiction Neuroscience focuses on neuroscience research to understand brain mechanisms underlying addiction behaviors. It aims to advance understanding of the actions of drugs of abuse and of addictive processes, including eating disorders. Papers are accepted in both animal and clinical experimentation. The content includes behavioral, molecular, genetic, biochemical, electrophysiological, neuroimaging, neuropharmacologic and general neurobiologic approaches to these questions. Thus, we aim to integrate new knowledge into addictive processes across a broad spectrum of neuroscience.

The aim of the Journal is to provide a forum for the critical analysis of advanced drug and gene delivery systems and their applications in human and veterinary medicine. The Journal has a broad scope, covering the key issues for effective drug and gene delivery, from administration to site-specific delivery.In general, the Journal publishes review articles in a Theme Issue format. Each Theme Issue provides a comprehensive and critical examination of current and emerging research on the design and development of advanced drug and gene delivery systems and their application to experimental and clinical therapeutics. The goal is to illustrate the pivotal role of a multidisciplinary approach to modern drug delivery, encompassing the application of sound biological and physicochemical principles to the engineering of drug delivery systems to meet the therapeutic need at hand. Importantly the Editorial Team of ADDR asks that the authors effectively window the extensive volume of literature, pick the important contributions and explain their importance, produce a forward looking identification of the challenges facing the field and produce a Conclusions section with expert recommendations to address the issues.Articles review the current status of a specific topic, giving equal emphasis to the identification of major conceptual and technological challenges to successful drug and gene delivery, to an evaluation of triumphs as well as shortcomings in current conceptual and technical approaches, and to a discussion of their possible solution.Theme issues are commissioned by one of the Executive Editors or the Editor-in-Chief. The Journal does not publish stand alone manuscripts. If you wish to submit a theme issue topic for consideration, please contact one of the editors.Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Advances in Bamboo Science is an interdisciplinary journal covering all aspects of bamboo, ranging from the growth and silviculture of the product, processing technologies, and new products. The potential of bamboo as a nature-based solution to many of the environmental problems facing the world is being increasingly recognized. Bamboo is found in many temperate, sub-tropical and tropical countries around the world, and is being increasingly cultivated because of the wide range of products associated with it. The journal accepts original research and state-of-the-art reviews on the classification, physiology, growth, properties, ecology and management of bamboo, its use in bioremediation and habitat restoration, and also has a strong focus on the products derived from bamboo, including foodstuffs, medicines, cosmetics, biochemicals, textiles, utensils, papers and tissues, flooring and cabinetry, and construction materials. Research examining the cultural, socio-economic and regional impacts of bamboo will also be considered.
Advances in Biological Regulation (formerly Advances in Enzyme Regulation) reports cutting edge scientific progress on regulation at the molecular level, covering:The molecular biology of control of gene expression by hormones, drugs and growth factors in cancer cells and in clinical situations of metabolic diseases, inborn errors of metabolism and neoplasia.Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine issuesRegulatory networks, mainly in cellular signalling, differentiation, cell cycle & growth control, structure-function relationships, cell fate and lineage commitment or assembly mechanisms in cellsViruses, or supramolecular constructs, and signaling mechanisms mediating transcriptionGenomic, proteomic, bioinformatics and systems biology approaches to identify and characterize steps of biological control in cells.Complex cellular, pathogenic, clinical, or animal model systems studied by biochemical, molecular, genetic, epigenetic or quantitative ultrastructural approaches
Despite the progress in cancer diagnostic and treatment, the problem of cancer metastasis is still unsolved. Approximately 90% of cancer patients die due to the metastatic disease progression. It is assumed that elucidation of the molecular mechanisms associated with cancer cell spread to the distant organs and tissues could help in the improvement of therapy results and clinical outcome in cancer patients.The journal devotes itself to the publication of basic and translational research. It accepts reviews, research articles, mini-reviews and technical (methodology) papers. More clinically-oriented papers may also be accepted if they discuss therapeutic options dependent on specific molecular features of the primary and secondary (metastatic) tumors.Manuscripts addressing the following problems are especially welcome:Molecular mechanisms underlying metastatic spread;Molecular properties of carcinoma cells associated with their metastatic capacities;Molecular mechanisms of organ-specific metastasis;Role of microenvironment (tumor stroma and immune system) in metastatic progression;Site-specific metastasis;Tumor metabolism and metastatic spread;Cancer metastasis and dormancy;Role of cancer stem cells in the metastasis development;Circulating tumor cells;Exosomes and microvesicles in disease progression;Therapy-induced metastasis;Animal models to study the mechanisms of metastatic spread;Preclinical findings that could be useful in the clinical practice to combat metastatic disease;Diagnostic tools for metastasis detection;Translational research on metastatic disease;Therapeutic approaches to combat metastatic progression.Should you have a proposal or an idea for a thematic issue, please complete the thematic issue proposal form and send it to the Editorial Office ([email protected]).
