Developmental Cell

期刊简介：Developmental Cell, launched in 2001, is a broad-interest journal covering the areas of cell biology and developmental biology. In addition to publishing work spanning all areas of cell biology and developmental biology, we have particular interest in how these fields interface with each other and with other disciplines in biology. The journal aims to showcase work that examines, through a cell biological lens, the fundamentals of how a cell works, how cells interact with one another and with the environment, how cells come together to form a tissue, organ, and ultimately a whole organism, and what happens when any of these processes go awry. Developmental Cell will consider papers in any area of cell biology or developmental biology, as well as at the interface either of these fields make to any other areas in biology. Examples of these include signaling, cell proliferation, polarity, cell migration, cell lineage and fate specification, chromatin regulation and function, cancer cell biology, evo-devo, disease etiology, membrane traffic, metabolic regulation, morphogenesis and biomechanics, organ development, ncRNAs, stem cell biology, and regeneration. We are also interested in studies building on large datasets or developing new tools that could be good fits for our Resource or Technology formats. The primary criterion for publication in Developmental Cell, as for all Cell Press journals, is new biological insight. We are happy to consider any study that leads to important new conclusions about biological function.

【译文】《发育细胞》是一本于2001年创刊的广泛兴趣期刊，涵盖细胞生物学和发育生物学领域。除了出版涵盖细胞生物学和发育生物学所有领域的作品外，我们还特别关注这些领域如何相互联系以及与生物学其他学科的联系。该期刊旨在展示通过细胞生物学视角研究细胞工作原理、细胞相互及与环境的相互作用、细胞如何聚集形成组织、器官，最终形成整个生物体，以及当这些过程中的任何一个出现问题时会发生什么的研究成果。发育细胞将考虑细胞生物学或发育生物学任何领域的论文，以及这两个领域与生物学其他领域的接口。这些包括信号传导、细胞增殖、极性、细胞迁移、细胞谱系和命运指定、染色质调控和功能、癌细胞生物学、进化发育、疾病病因学、膜交通、代谢调控、形态发生和生物力学、器官发育、非编码RNA、干细胞生物学和再生。我们还对基于大型数据集的研究或开发新工具，这些工具可能适合我们的资源或技术格式感兴趣。与所有Cell Press期刊一样，发表在《发育细胞》上的主要标准是新的生物学见解。我们愿意考虑任何导致关于生物学功能的重要新结论的研究。
