for publication. Please avoid submitting studies relying on only one

cell line.

Data Submission: For research articles involving Western blots, it is

recommended to provide all raw data images during the revision stage or

upon editorial request. These should be submitted as supplementary files

(preferably in a single PDF) along with the corresponding figure

legends.

Data

Availability: Authors are encouraged to make genomic and transcriptomic

data publicly available before acceptance or as soon as possible.

Ethical

Approval: Experimental research involving humans or animals must be

approved by the relevant institutional review board or ethics committee,

with the approval number and committee name provided. Research

involving human subjects must adhere to the principles of the

Declaration of Helsinki.

Submission

revisions are needed, the manuscript must comply with the journal’s

formatting requirements. However, it is recommended to follow best

practices to ensure the accessibility and impact of your manuscript.

This

publication in this journal. If your submission is deemed suitable, it

will typically be sent to a minimum of two reviewers for an independent

expert assessment of the scientific quality. The decision as to whether

your article is accepted or rejected will be taken by our editors. This

decision is final.

Our editors are not involved in making decisions about papers which:

they have written themselves.

have been written by family members or colleagues.

relate to products or services in which they have an interest.

Any

such submissions will be subject to the journal's usual procedures and

peer review will be handled independently of the editor involved and

their research group.

All

manuscripts are reviewed by the editorial office. Any papers which fail

to meet the basic standards of the journal will be desk-rejected for

reasons like out of scope, ethical conflicts, high similarities, lack of

originality, flaws in research design or methods, etc. The editorial

office will reassign selected papers to the Editor-in-chief.

The

Editor-in-chief will invite multiple reviewers to review the paper or

assign an editorial board member to invite reviewers to review this

paper.

After

at least two reviewers give their reviews and comments, the

Editor-in-chief (or the assigned Editor) provides feedback to the

authors, based on reviewer comments and his own review comments.

When

the author submits the revised manuscript, the assigned editor and

Editor-in-chief will collaborate to make a final decision.

For

submissions from the Editor-in-Chief, Associate Editors, Guest

Editor(s), other journal Board members, and authors who have conflicts

of interest with them, we ensure that the paper is handled

confidentially by a different team member.

For

submissions to Special Issues; if there are conflicts of interest

between the Guest Editor(s) and authors, the submissions will be handled

by another Editor from the Editorial Board who will manage the peer

review process and make the decision whether to accept or reject the

paper after peer review.
