Human Vaccines Journal |
The field of vaccines is more than two hundred years old. Nevertheless, new technical developments and the terrific success record of vaccines have led to a recent explosion of interest in the field. Vaccines are one of the most highly cost-effective modalities in health-care. It has been estimated that vaccination is responsible for more than 10 years of the total increase in the average human lifespan worldwide during the 20th century, an increase second in impact only to that of clean water. There are over 10 million deaths annually worldwide, as well as considerable morbidity, mostly among young children, that are attributable to infectious diseases. Many of these deaths could be prevented by increased use of existing vaccines, while the great majority would be preventable by the development and wide-scale use of effective new vaccines. The increasingly broad array of new technologies is based upon breakthrough discoveries in the fields of immunology, biochemistry, molecular biology and related areas. The broad applications of such discoveries should result in the creation of vaccines not previously feasible or in the improvement of the safety and efficacy of existing vaccines. There were approximately 40 novel vaccines developed and introduced during the last 100 years, more than half of which were introduced in the last 25 years. The development of new technologies and the emergence of new mechanisms for funding development, purchase and worldwide distribution offer hope that existing and new vaccines will reach even more people.
The value of preventive health-care has recently become more appreciated due to the burgeoning cost of treating diseases. More doses of vaccines are distributed worldwide each year. Many new vaccines are either licensed or in development. As a result, many companies and academic laboratories are initiating new vaccine projects. Non-governmental donor organizations provide generous support for vaccines, and the number of vaccine-relat

Cell Cycle Journal |
The time is right for this new journal. The cell cycle has become a growth industry. Discoveries of its ever-increasing ramifications, complexity and detail need to be brought together.
Appearance of this journal is also at an opportune time. Just a half century ago the framework of the cell cycle with its four phases was created by Howard and Pelc (1951). Biology of the cycle gradually developed thereafter, including roles of growth and the off-on control of quiescence vs. proliferation.
A quarter century later there was an explosion of new findings and concepts. Cycle regulation was introduced, with the major proliferation control located at the restriction point in late G1. Genetics of the cycle originated with temperature conditional cycle mutants of yeast, and revealed that numerous key genes are required for progression through the cycle. Biochemistry of regulatory processes then developed with discovery of cyclins, proteins whose amounts oscillate during the cycle and which control phosphorylations by the key cyclin-dependent kinases. Inhibitors of these kinases (INKs) were discovered later. Numerous proteins involved in signal transductions, starting with fos, ras and myc, and on to RB, E2F, etc., have since been reported.
Newer features of the cycle include controls, such as by kinases and phosphatases, of transcription, translation, post-translation, compartmentalization, roles of multi-protein complexes and of chromatin structure by various modifications of histones. Importantly, apoptosis has become prominent, as a yin-yang counter to proliferation. This highly regulated process eliminates physiologically unneeded and damaged cells.
Ramifications of fundamental research include:
- regulation of entering and exiting the cycle during normal processes such as differentiation,
- effects of DNA damage and other stresses, which arrest cycling cells at specific checkpoints, and in which the ataxia telangiectasia gene ATM and p53 have major roles,
- aging a

- Macroautophagy, microautophagy and specific organelle degradation
- Chaperone-mediated autophagy
- The role of autophagy in diseases such as cancer, neurodegeneration and myopathies
- Protection against, and subversion by, pathogens
- Autophagy in the immune response
- Development and aging
- Connections of autophagy with cell death
- Regulation of autophagy
- Mechanism and structure/function studies
Research in the field of autophagy has started to increase exponentially and Autophagy serves a unique role in providing an outlet for original research as well as a resource for investigators who are trying to keep up with the latest views and information on this topic:
Autophagy continues to publish exciting research papers such as the first direct demonstration that autophagy plays a role in the host defense against viral pathogens, the first demonstration of selective autophagy in plant cells, and the first demonstration that a mutation in an autophagy gene reduces lifespan in a fly model.
Autophagy publishes addenda that provide overviews and extensions of work published in a wide array of other journals, so that you can stay up to date. Autophagy also publishes methodology and guideline papers that help to set standards for autophagy research.
Autophagy publishes speaker-approved meeting reports summarizing results from, for example, the International Symposium on Autophagy, and the Keystone Symposium on Autophagy in Health and Disease. Autophagy publishes reviews on all aspects of the field written by experts.
The Associate Editors and Editorial Board of Autophagy represent some of the top researchers in all areas of autophagy research, ensuring that your papers are reviewed by people who understand and appreciate your work. The wide audience of Autophagy also guarantees that your papers will be read
