Journal Title：Progress In Lipid Research

The importance of lipids as one of the fundamental classes of biological compounds is well established. The application of our of the biochemistry, chemistry and physiology of lipids to biotechnology, the fats and oils industry and medicine have continued to expand apace. In addition new dimensions such as lipid biophysics, especially with relevance to membranes and lipoproteins, and basic liposome research and applications have been added. To cope with all these advances in knowledge a journal is needed to review recent progress in particular fields and to set current research against its historical background. Progress in Lipid Research fulfils this role.

Each volume contains up-to-date surveys of special aspects of lipid research. The invited reviews are comprehensive enough to provide sufficient overview but concentrate on reporting and critically appraising the most recent data. Subjects are chosen for their timeliness or because major developments have taken place in the last few years. They include methodological reviews as well as chemical, biochemical and medical articles. All lipid compounds and derivatives are covered, ranging from fatty acids and other simple molecules, through steroids, terpenoids and phospho- or glycolipids to complex structures such as lipoproteins and biological membranes. We hope that those whose main interest is in lipid biophysics and liposome research will join as new readers, benefiting from the journal's classical aspects of lipid metabolism, lipids in signal transduction and lipid enzymology, and that current readers will benefit from the exposure to top quality research on the new aspects.

脂質(zhì)作為生物化合物的基本類別之一的重要性已得到充分證實(shí)。脂質(zhì)的生物化學(xué)、化學(xué)和生理學(xué)在生物技術(shù)、油脂工業(yè)和醫(yī)學(xué)中的應(yīng)用持續(xù)快速擴(kuò)展。此外，還增加了新的維度，例如脂質(zhì)生物物理學(xué)（特別是與膜和脂蛋白相關(guān)的）以及基本的脂質(zhì)體研究和應(yīng)用。為了應(yīng)對(duì)所有這些知識(shí)進(jìn)步，需要一本期刊來回顧特定領(lǐng)域的最新進(jìn)展，并將當(dāng)前研究與其歷史背景進(jìn)行比較。脂質(zhì)研究進(jìn)展履行了這一職責(zé)。

每卷都包含脂質(zhì)研究特殊方面的最新調(diào)查。邀請(qǐng)的評(píng)論足夠全面，可以提供足夠的概述，但集中于報(bào)告和批判性地評(píng)估最新數(shù)據(jù)。選擇主題是因?yàn)樗鼈兊募皶r(shí)性或因?yàn)檫^去幾年發(fā)生了重大發(fā)展。它們包括方法論評(píng)論以及化學(xué)、生物化學(xué)和醫(yī)學(xué)文章。涵蓋所有脂質(zhì)化合物和衍生物，從脂肪酸和其他簡單分子，到類固醇、萜類化合物和磷脂或糖脂，再到脂蛋白和生物膜等復(fù)雜結(jié)構(gòu)。我們希望那些主要對(duì)脂質(zhì)生物物理學(xué)和脂質(zhì)體研究感興趣的人能成為新讀者，從該期刊關(guān)于脂質(zhì)代謝、信號(hào)轉(zhuǎn)導(dǎo)中的脂質(zhì)和脂質(zhì)酶學(xué)的經(jīng)典方面受益，并希望當(dāng)前的讀者能從接觸新方面的頂級(jí)研究成果中受益。

Progress In Lipid Research創(chuàng)刊于1978年，由Elsevier Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋生物 - 生化與分子生物學(xué)全領(lǐng)域，在行業(yè)領(lǐng)域中學(xué)術(shù)影響力很大，屬于國際一流期刊，關(guān)注度和專業(yè)度非常高，所以對(duì)原創(chuàng)文章要求創(chuàng)新性很高，過審難度很高，如果您有志于一流期刊，建議關(guān)注此刊。平均審稿速度 約稿?周期不定 約14.6周，影響因子指數(shù)14，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
