期刊簡介預計審稿時間： 14 Weeks

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience is a first-tier electronic journal devoted to identifying key molecules, as well as their functions and interactions, that underlie the structure, design and function of the brain across all levels. The scope of our journal encompasses synaptic and cellular proteins, coding and non-coding RNA, and molecular mechanisms regulating cellular and dendritic RNA translation. In recent years, a plethora of new cellular and synaptic players have been identified from reduced systems, such as neuronal cultures, but the relevance of these molecules in terms of cellular and synaptic function and plasticity in the living brain and its circuits has not been validated. The effects of spine growth and density observed using gene products identified from in vitro work are frequently not reproduced in vivo. Our journal is particularly interested in studies on genetically engineered model organisms (C. elegans, Drosophila, mouse), in which alterations in key molecules underlying cellular and synaptic function and plasticity produce defined anatomical, physiological and behavioral changes. In the mouse, genetic alterations limited to particular neural circuits (olfactory bulb, motor cortex, cortical layers, hippocampal subfields, cerebellum), preferably regulated in time and on demand, are of special interest, as they sidestep potential compensatory developmental effects.

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience 是一本一流的電子期刊，致力于識別構成大腦各個層面結構、設計和功能的關鍵分子及其功能和相互作用。我們期刊的范圍涵蓋突觸和細胞蛋白、編碼和非編碼 RNA，以及調(diào)節(jié)細胞和樹突 RNA 翻譯的分子機制。近年來，從簡化系統(tǒng)（如神經(jīng)元培養(yǎng)）中識別出了大量新的細胞和突觸參與者，但這些分子在活體大腦及其回路中的細胞和突觸功能和可塑性方面的相關性尚未得到驗證。使用從體外工作中識別出的基因產(chǎn)物觀察到的脊柱生長和密度的影響通常無法在體內(nèi)重現(xiàn)。我們的期刊特別關注基因工程模型生物（秀麗隱桿線蟲、果蠅、小鼠）的研究，其中細胞和突觸功能和可塑性的關鍵分子的改變會產(chǎn)生明確的解剖、生理和行為變化。在小鼠中，局限于特定神經(jīng)回路（嗅球、運動皮層、皮質層、海馬亞區(qū)、小腦）的基因改變尤其令人感興趣，因為它們最好是按時和按需進行調(diào)節(jié)，從而避免潛在的補償性發(fā)育效應。
