Nuclear Receptor

Written by admin on Mar 24th, 2008 | Filed under: Molecular Biology

 

Nuclear Receptor is an Open Access, peer-reviewed, online journal publishing articles on all aspects of the molecular features of nuclear receptor biology, from steroid endocrinology to nematode ageing, from toxicology to the genetics of obesity. This journal provides a unique opportunity for such diverse studies, united by the nuclear receptor theme, to be brought together in a single publication. Manuscripts that deal with the descriptive effects of steroids or such-like substances without any molecular content will not be considered.
Nuclear Receptor
is aimed at a multidisciplinary, basic and clinical research community, and endeavours to integrate knowledge regarding nuclear receptors and their associated signaling molecules from a wide range of sources. We anticipate that lessons learned for one receptor in one organism may provide important insights into the function of other receptors in unrelated organisms. We also believe that the nuclear receptor super-family provides a diversity of function that will provide profound insights into the fundamental basis of the differences between species. The understanding of the role of nuclear receptors in health and disease will provide key strategies in the development of novel therapeutics, and manuscripts addressing these issues are particularly welcome.

Molecular Pain

Written by admin on Mar 24th, 2008 | Filed under: Molecular Biology

Molecular Pain is an Open Access, peer-reviewed, online journal that considers manuscripts in pain research at the cellular, subcellular and molecular levels.

 

Molecular Pain is a relatively new and rapidly expanding research field that represents an advanced step from conventional pain research. Molecular pain research addresses physiological and pathological pain at the cellular, subcellular and molecular levels. These studies integrate pain research with molecular biology, genomics, proteomics, modern electrophysiology and neurobiology. The field of molecular pain research has been rapidly expanding in the recent years, and has great promise for the identification of highly specific and effective targets for the treatment of intractable pain.

 

Although several existing journals publish articles on classical pain research, none are specifically dedicated to molecular pain research. Therefore, a new journal focused on molecular pain research is needed. Molecular Pain will provide a forum for molecular pain scientists to communicate their research findings in a targeted manner to others in this important and growing field.

Molecular Neurodegeneration

Written by admin on Mar 24th, 2008 | Filed under: Molecular Biology

 

Molecular Neurodegeneration is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal that will encompass all aspects of neurodegeneration research at the molecular and cellular levels.
Neurodegenerative diseases collectively refer to neurological disorders that result from neurodegeneration and include, but are not limited to, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson disease, Huntington disease, and prion diseases. These diseases, which are often associated with advanced aging and display varying degrees of dementia, have become a significant public health issue as humans live longer and the aging population grows larger. Recent advances in the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of these neurodegenerative disorders have allowed for a better understanding of the disease mechanisms.

Molecular Cytogenetics

Written by admin on Mar 24th, 2008 | Filed under: Molecular Biology

 

Molecular Cytogenetics is an open access, peer-reviewed, online journal soon to be launched by BioMed Central.Molecular Cytogenetics provides a home for the latest high-quality research concerning the chromosome biology and the application of molecular cytogenetic techniques in all areas of biomedicine. Molecular cytogenetics primarily defines a large set of the techniques that operate either with the entire genome or with specific targeted DNA sequences.

Topical areas include, but are not limited to:

  • Structural and functional organization of chromosome and nucleus
  • Genome variation, expression and evolution
  • Chromosome abnormalities and genomic variations in clinical genetics
  • Applications in preimplantation, pre- and postnatal diagnosis
  • Applications in the central nervous system, cancer and haematology research
  • Previously unreported applications of molecular cytogenetic techniques
  • Development of new techniques or significant enhancements to established techniques

This journal is a source for numerous scientists all over the world, who wish to improve or introduce molecular cytogenetic techniques into their practice.
