The aim of Neuropeptides is the rapid publication of original research and review articles, dealing with the structure, distribution, actions and functions of peptides in the central and peripheral nervous systems. The explosion of research activity in this field has led to the identification of numerous naturally occurring endogenous peptides which act as neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, or trophic factors, to mediate nervous system functions. Increasing numbers of non-peptide ligands of neuropeptide receptors have been developed, which act as agonists or antagonists in peptidergic systems.

The journal provides a unique opportunity of integrating the many disciplines involved in all neuropeptide research. The journal publishes articles on all aspects of the neuropeptide field, with particular emphasis on gene regulation of peptide expression, peptide receptor subtypes, transgenic and knockout mice with mutations in genes for neuropeptides and peptide receptors, neuroanatomy, physiology, behaviour, neurotrophic factors, preclinical drug evaluation, clinical studies, and clinical trials.

《神經(jīng)肽》的目的是快速發(fā)表原創(chuàng)研究和評論文章，涉及肽在中樞和周圍神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)中的結(jié)構(gòu)、分布、作用和功能。該領(lǐng)域研究活動的激增已導(dǎo)致大量天然存在的內(nèi)源性肽被鑒定出來，它們作為神經(jīng)遞質(zhì)、神經(jīng)調(diào)節(jié)劑或營養(yǎng)因子，介導(dǎo)神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)功能。越來越多的神經(jīng)肽受體非肽配體已被開發(fā)出來，它們在肽能系統(tǒng)中充當(dāng)激動劑或拮抗劑。

該期刊提供了一個獨特的機會，可以整合所有神經(jīng)肽研究所涉及的許多學(xué)科。該期刊發(fā)表有關(guān)神經(jīng)肽領(lǐng)域各個方面的文章，特別強調(diào)肽表達(dá)的基因調(diào)控、肽受體亞型、神經(jīng)肽和肽受體基因突變的轉(zhuǎn)基因和基因敲除小鼠、神經(jīng)解剖學(xué)、生理學(xué)、行為、神經(jīng)營養(yǎng)因子、臨床前藥物評估、臨床研究和臨床試驗。
