Description
General and Comparative Endocrinology is a leading journal dedicated to the study of hormones and their effects across a wide range of animal species. It publishes original research articles, reviews, and commentaries that advance our understanding of endocrine systems, hormone action, and their physiological roles. The journal bridges the gap between basic science and clinical applications in endocrinology. Key areas covered include hormone synthesis, secretion, transport, receptor binding, signal transduction, and effects on target tissues. It also explores the evolutionary aspects of endocrine systems, comparative physiology, and the role of hormones in development, reproduction, metabolism, and behavior. Indexed in databases such as Web of Science and Scopus, this journal targets endocrinologists, zoologists, physiologists, and researchers interested in the diverse world of hormones. By providing a platform for high-quality research, General and Comparative Endocrinology contributes to a deeper understanding of hormone function and its implications for animal health and well-being. Researchers are encouraged to submit manuscripts that showcase novel insights into endocrine systems and their regulation. It is a premier resource for those seeking to expand our knowledge of hormones across the animal kingdom.
