Cell Biology and Pathology

The Cell Biology and Pathology section covers all aspects of this general field, from molecular machines that enable or adversely modify cell function to the pathology of complete organisms. Both review articles and original research contributions are welcome, as long as they conform to the highest scientific standards. Contributions that explore the origin of diseases at the molecular level, such as structural, biochemical, and genetic studies of receptors, oncogenes, tumor suppressor and regulatory proteins, signal pathways, RNA/DNA, as well as articles that propose new routes for the cure and prevention of diseases, are of particular interest. Cutting-edge diagnostic tools ranging from PCR to magnetic resonance, as applied to the detection of cellular or organismic pathological dysfunctions on all levels, will be accepted.
