Journal of Endocrinology and Hormones

Advancing mechanistic understanding of endocrine pathophysiology through rigorous investigation of hormonal signaling, molecular targets, and disease pathways

Elucidating Molecular Mechanisms of Endocrine Disease

The Journal of Endocrinology and Hormones (JEH) serves as a premier platform for disseminating high-impact research that illuminates the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying endocrine disorders. Our interdisciplinary journal connects researchers investigating hormone action, signaling pathways, disease pathogenesis, and biomarker discovery across the endocrine system.

JEH publishes original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and mechanistic case studies that advance fundamental understanding of how endocrine diseases develop and progress at the molecular level. We prioritize studies that identify novel disease mechanisms, validate biomarkers for pathophysiological processes, characterize molecular targets, and establish experimental models that enable mechanistic discovery.

Aligned with COPE guidelines, JEH maintains rigorous peer review standards while ensuring rapid dissemination through open access publication. Our editorial commitment centers on scientific integrity, methodological rigor, and mechanistic depth.

Research Focus: Pathophysiological Mechanisms

JEH concentrates exclusively on mechanistic research that elucidates how endocrine diseases work at the molecular and cellular level. We publish investigations into disease pathways, molecular mechanisms, biomarker discovery, and experimental models—not clinical practice, treatment protocols, or patient management.

Hormone Signaling Mechanisms

Molecular pathways of hormone action, receptor interactions, signal transduction cascades, and post-receptor signaling events in disease states

Endocrine Disease Pathogenesis

Molecular mechanisms underlying diabetes, thyroid disorders, adrenal dysfunction, pituitary diseases, and gonadal disorders

Metabolic Dysregulation Pathways

Cellular and molecular mechanisms of metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism disorders, and energy homeostasis disruption

Neuroendocrine Pathophysiology

Molecular mechanisms linking neural and hormonal systems in disease, hypothalamic-pituitary axis dysfunction, and stress response pathways

Reproductive Endocrine Mechanisms

Molecular pathways in reproductive disorders, fertility regulation mechanisms, gonadal hormone action, and developmental programming

Endocrine Tumor Biology

Molecular mechanisms of hormone-driven carcinogenesis, tumor progression pathways, oncogenic signaling, and growth factor networks

Biomarker Discovery & Validation

Identification and mechanistic validation of molecular biomarkers for endocrine disease states, progression, and pathway activity

Experimental Disease Models

Development and characterization of cellular, animal, and organoid models that recapitulate endocrine disease mechanisms

Environmental Endocrine Disruption

Molecular mechanisms by which environmental factors alter hormone signaling, receptor function, and endocrine homeostasis

Scope Clarity: JEH focuses on mechanistic understanding of disease processes, not clinical applications. We publish research explaining how diseases develop and progress at molecular/cellular levels—including pathway analysis, biomarker discovery, and model development—but not clinical diagnosis protocols, treatment guidelines, or patient management strategies.
