The American Journal of Physiology Lung Cellular
and Molecular Physiology is seeking manuscripts that highlight new scientific advances in key
concepts and challenges to the design, implementation and utilization of
engineered lung tissue for transplantation. Basic,
translational, and clinical research papers as well as review articles will be
considered, especially those focusing on these specific concepts: 1) Biocompatible Scaffolds and
Mechanisms of Cellularization; 2) Mechanical Forces; 3)
Graft Vascularization; and 4) Immune
Responses to Bioengineered Lung Tissues.
All papers will be reviewed promptly, thoroughly, and
fairly by members of the Editorial Board and guest reviewers who are recognized
experts in this field. Accepted manuscripts will be published under a distinct
heading and will receive special attention and handling. Only those papers not
requiring extensive revision will be published under this call. If you
currently have a manuscript on this topic that has already been submitted and
would like it to be included in this Special Call, please contact Dr. Sadis Matalon,
Editor-in-Chief via e-mail at sadis@uab.edu.
