Aims and Scopes

The journal 'NEUROIMMUNOMODULATION' focuses on the intricate interactions between the nervous system and immune response, exploring the mechanisms underlying neuroinflammation and its implications for various neurological disorders. This journal aims to provide a platform for advancing knowledge in neuroimmunology through a variety of methodologies, including experimental studies, clinical research, and reviews.
  1. Neuroimmunology and Neuroinflammation:
    The core focus of the journal is on the relationship between the immune system and the nervous system, particularly how neuroinflammatory processes affect neurological diseases.
  2. Pain and Inflammatory Responses:
    Research on the mechanisms of pain and inflammation, including the role of cytokines and the sympathetic nervous system, is a significant area of interest.
  3. Psychoneuroimmunology:
    The intersection of psychological factors and immune function is explored, particularly how stress and psychological states can influence neuroinflammatory responses.
  4. Clinical and Experimental Studies:
    Publications include both clinical studies in human populations and experimental studies using animal models to investigate neuroimmune interactions.
  5. Therapeutic Approaches:
    The journal emphasizes novel therapeutic strategies aimed at modulating neuroinflammation and related disorders, including pharmacological interventions and complementary therapies.
The journal has shown a dynamic evolution in its thematic focus, with several emerging trends reflecting contemporary challenges in neuroimmunology, particularly in the context of global health issues and advancements in technology.
  1. Impact of COVID-19 on Neuroinflammation:
    Research exploring the neuroimmune consequences of COVID-19, including long-term neuropsychiatric effects and immune-endocrine changes, has surged, highlighting the pandemic's influence on neuroimmunological research.
  2. Sympathetic Nervous System Modulation:
    There is a growing interest in the role of the sympathetic nervous system in mediating neuroinflammation and pain, with studies investigating its therapeutic modulation.
  3. Psychoneuroimmunology and Mental Health:
    An increased focus on the interplay between mental health, inflammation, and immune responses, particularly in conditions like depression and anxiety, reflects a trending interest in holistic approaches to neuroimmunology.
  4. Innovative Therapeutic Strategies:
    Emerging research on novel therapeutic interventions, including nutritional and lifestyle modifications, as well as the use of non-invasive techniques like vagus nerve stimulation, indicates a shift towards integrative treatment approaches.
  5. MicroRNA and Exosomal Research:
    The exploration of microRNAs and exosomes in the context of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases is becoming more prominent, suggesting a trend towards utilizing molecular biomarkers for diagnosis and treatment.

Declining or Waning

While 'NEUROIMMUNOMODULATION' has maintained a strong focus on neuroinflammation and its effects on various conditions, certain themes appear to be declining in publication frequency. This may reflect shifts in research priorities or advancements in understanding specific areas.
  1. Traditional Autoimmune Disorders:
    Research focused on classic autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis has seen a decrease, possibly due to a broader focus on neuroinflammatory mechanisms rather than specific diseases.
  2. Basic Mechanistic Studies:
    There appears to be a waning interest in purely mechanistic studies without translational implications, as the journal increasingly favors studies with direct clinical relevance.
  3. Role of Specific Cytokines:
    While cytokines remain a key area, studies focusing on isolated cytokine effects without a broader context of neuroinflammation or clinical implications are appearing less frequently.
