期刊简介

研究范围与定位

Archives of Physiology and Biochemistry: The Journal of Metabolic Diseases is an international peer-reviewed journal which has been relaunched to meet the increasing demand for integrated publication on molecular, biochemical and cellular aspects of metabolic diseases, as well as clinical and therapeutic strategies for their treatment. It publishes full-length original articles, rapid papers, reviews and mini-reviews on selected topics. It is the overall goal of the journal to disseminate novel approaches to an improved understanding of major metabolic disorders.The scope encompasses all topics related to the molecular and cellular pathophysiology of metabolic diseases like obesity, type 2 diabetes and the metabolic syndrome, and their associated complications.Clinical studies are considered as an integral part of the Journal and should be related to one of the following topics:-Dysregulation of hormone receptors and signal transduction-Contribution of gene variants and gene regulatory processes-Impairment of intermediary metabolism at the cellular level-Secretion and metabolism of peptides and other factors that mediate cellular crosstalk-Therapeutic strategies for managing metabolic diseasesSpecial issues dedicated to topics in the field will be published regularly.
