INFLAMMOPHARMACOLOGY
Scope & Guideline
Connecting researchers to the pulse of cutting-edge pharmacology.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Pharmacological studies on anti-inflammatory agents:
Research articles investigating the efficacy and safety of pharmacological agents, including traditional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, and emerging therapies like biologics and small molecules. - Natural products and herbal medicine:
Exploration of the anti-inflammatory properties of natural compounds and extracts from various plants, including traditional medicinal herbs, and their potential applications in treating inflammatory conditions. - Mechanistic studies of inflammation:
Detailed investigations into the cellular and molecular pathways involved in inflammation, including the role of cytokines, signaling pathways (such as NF-κB and NLRP3), and the immune response. - Clinical trials and translational research:
Reports on clinical trials assessing the effectiveness of new treatments for inflammatory diseases, including studies that bridge laboratory findings with clinical applications. - Innovative therapeutic strategies:
Research on novel therapies, including nanomedicine, gene therapy, and repurposing existing drugs for new indications in the context of inflammation.
Trending and Emerging
- Research on COVID-19 and inflammatory responses:
A significant increase in studies concerning the inflammatory responses associated with COVID-19, including the role of cytokine storms and the therapeutic potential of anti-inflammatory agents in managing COVID-19 complications. - Focus on neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases:
Growing interest in the relationship between inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, with an emphasis on understanding the underlying mechanisms and exploring potential neuroprotective therapies. - Exploration of gut-brain axis and inflammation:
Emerging research on the gut-brain axis and its implications for inflammatory diseases, particularly in understanding how gut microbiota can influence systemic inflammation and neurological health. - Novel therapeutic modalities and drug repurposing:
Increased focus on innovative therapeutic strategies, including drug repurposing for inflammatory diseases, utilizing existing medications in new contexts to enhance treatment efficacy. - Natural products and phytotherapy:
A resurgence in interest towards natural products and phytochemicals for their anti-inflammatory properties, reflecting a growing trend towards integrative and holistic approaches to health.
Declining or Waning
- Conventional DMARDs studies:
Research on conventional Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) appears to be declining, possibly due to the increasing interest in biologics and targeted therapies that offer more personalized and effective treatment options for autoimmune conditions. - Basic research on inflammation without therapeutic implications:
There seems to be a waning interest in purely basic research studies that do not directly translate to therapeutic applications or clinical implications, as the journal shifts towards more clinically relevant findings. - Vaccine-related inflammation studies:
As vaccine development and research have become more established, the focus on inflammation specifically related to vaccine responses has decreased, possibly as the field matures and becomes less of a novelty. - Historical perspectives and reviews:
While historical reviews have their place, the trend indicates a decreasing number of purely historical or retrospective studies, as the journal emphasizes current research trends and forward-looking therapeutic strategies.
