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.
