The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is devoted to new experimental and theoretical developments in areas
related to steroids. The Journal publishes a variety of contributions, including original articles, general and focused reviews,
and rapid communications (brief articles of particular interest and clear novelty). Selected cutting-edge topics will be addressed in
Special Issues managed by Guest Editors. Special Issues will contain both commissioned reviews and invited original research to provide
comprehensive coverage of specific topics, and all articles will undergo rigorous peer-review prior to publication.
Manuscripts
relating to unsolved issues in genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, structural biology, steroid chemistry, cell biology, molecular
medicine, and clinical medicine, are encouraged. Both basic and clinical areas of research are within the scope of the Journal,
provided they address mechanisms or yield a functional explanation of processes involving steroids. A further aim of the Journal
is to provide steroid-related tools, synthesis and analysis methods, and reference data.Contributions on case studies or descriptions
of new compounds should provide new functional data. Otherwise they will be not considered. Reports on translational research are encouraged.
The aims of the Journal cover studies on steroid signal transduction pathways, functional annotation of genes and kinetics
of metabolic pathways, as well as the creation of enduring and validated resources for metabolomics and systems biology analyses. Furthermore,
the Journal also publishes results on lipid research, functional association studies or 'omics' that are instrumental in our
understanding of common complex human diseases like metabolic syndrome, diabetes or obesity. Further aspects like steroid-related cancers
or neurosteroids are within the scope of the Journal. The Journal aims to enhance our understanding, and the development
of approaches to study, the interplay between the environment, genomes, metabolism and disease.
