MOLECULAR IMMUNOLOGY

Molecular Immunology is primarily devoted to the publication of immunological knowledge which can be delineated at the molecular level. Within this framework are included contributions concerned with the molecular analysis of the cellular components and processes which underlie the physiological behavior of cells involved in immune phenomena. Papers which merely describe new monoclonal antibodies and/or epitope mapping will no longer be accepted unless they have a direct relevance to the understanding of the immune system. The various forms of communications in Molecular Immunology will be as follows: Research Reports. These constitute the major category of communications. Each report consists of a detailed and complete description of the research problem, the experimental approach and the findings. It must provide new and significant knowledge and contain the information essential for verification of conclusions by other laboratories. Manuscripts are subject to detailed scrutiny by expert reviewers whose recommendations are the primary determinants of acceptability for publication. Groups of research reports as 'mini symposia' may also be organized by a Guest Editor, in agreement with the board of Regional Editors. Such reports will also be subject to critical review. It is anticipated that the publication of such invited groups of papers in selected areas may promote new openings in recently emerging fields and encourage individual contributions in these new areas. Short Communications. To provide rapid dissemination of timely and significant observation in molecular immunology, the journal will publish short communications in the form of a photographic reproduction of the original manuscript (2 or 4 pages). These manuscripts will also be evaluated by experts.

MOLECULAR IMMUNOLOGY期刊中文简介

分子免疫学主要致力于在分子水平上描述免疫学知识的发表。在这一框架内包括了有关细胞成分和过程的分子分析的贡献，这些成分和过程是细胞参与免疫现象的生理行为的基础。仅仅描述新的单克隆抗体和/或表位图的论文将不再被接受，除非它们与对免疫系统的理解有直接关系。在分子免疫学中，各种形式的通讯将如下:研究报告。这些构成了通讯的主要类别。每一份报告都包括对研究问题、实验方法和结果的详细和完整描述。它必须提供新的和重要的知识，并载有其他实验室核查结论所必需的资料。手稿要经过专家审稿人的详细审查，他们的建议是决定出版可接受性的主要因素。经区域编辑委员会同意，作为“小型专题讨论会”的研究报告小组也可由客座编辑组织。这些报告也将受到严格审查。预期在选定的领域发表这类邀请的论文组，可促进最近出现的领域的新空缺，并鼓励个人在这些新领域作出贡献。简短的沟通。为了在分子免疫学领域提供及时而有意义的观察结果的快速传播，该杂志将以原稿(2或4页)的摄影复制形式发表简短的通讯。这些手稿也将由专家进行评估。
