Abstract
The International Society of Differentiation was born from the First International Conference on Cell Differentiation conceived by D.V. and held in Nice, France in 1971. The conference also resulted in the creation of the journal of the Society named Differentiation. The Society advocates for the field of differentiation through the journal Differentiation, organizing and supporting international scientific conferences, honoring scientific achievements, and supporting trainees.
期刊介绍:
Differentiation is a multidisciplinary journal dealing with topics relating to cell differentiation, development, cellular structure and function, and cancer. Differentiation of eukaryotes at the molecular level and the use of transgenic and targeted mutagenesis approaches to problems of differentiation are of particular interest to the journal.
The journal will publish full-length articles containing original work in any of these areas. We will also publish reviews and commentaries on topics of current interest.
The principal subject areas the journal covers are: • embryonic patterning and organogenesis
• human development and congenital malformation
• mechanisms of cell lineage commitment
• tissue homeostasis and oncogenic transformation
• establishment of cellular polarity
• stem cell differentiation
• cell reprogramming mechanisms
• stability of the differentiated state
• cell and tissue interactions in vivo and in vitro
• signal transduction pathways in development and differentiation
• carcinogenesis and cancer
• mechanisms involved in cell growth and division especially relating to cancer
• differentiation in regeneration and ageing
• therapeutic applications of differentiation processes.
