Journal of Inflammation welcomes research submissions on all aspects of inflammation. Non-research articles are specially commissioned by the Editors-in-Chief.
Journal of Inflammation is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal publishing articles on all aspects of research into inflammation.
The five classical symptoms of inflammation, namely redness (rubor), swelling (tumour), heat (calor), pain (dolor) and loss of function (functio laesa), are only part of the story. The term inflammation is taken to include the full range of underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms involved, not only in the production of the inflammatory responses but, more importantly in clinical terms, in the healing process as well. Thus the journal covers molecular, cellular, animal and clinical studies, and related aspects of pharmacology, such as anti-inflammatory drug development, trials and therapeutic developments. It also considers publication of negative findings.
