Aims and scope

Neurotoxicity Research is dedicated to disseminating information obtained from quality research covering nervous system function including behavior, genetic, molecular, cellular, biochemical, anatomical, circuitry, and pathology within a framework of effects of exogenous or endogenous toxic factors across the lifespan as well as approaches for interventions to mitigate neurotoxic outcomes. Priority is given for original research that contributes to understanding mechanisms of neurotoxicity as well as critical reviews that demonstrate the current knowledge in the field.

Published papers have focused on:

NEURODEGENERATION and INJURY

Neuropathologies
Neuronal apoptosis
Neuronal necrosis
Neural death processes (anatomical, histochemical, neurochemical)
Neurodegenerative Disorders
Neural Effects of Substances of Abuse

NERVE REGENERATION and RESPONSES TO INJURY

Neural Adaptations
Neurotrophin mechanisms and actions

NEURO(CYTO)TOXICITY PROCESSES and NEUROPROTECTION

Excitatory amino acids
Neurotoxins, endogenous and synthetic
Reactive oxygen (nitrogen) species
Neuroprotection by endogenous and exogenous agents

Papers on related themes are welcome.
