Journal of Experimental Medicine

Journal of Experimental Medicine The Journal of Experimental Medicine publishes immunology, cancer, stem cells, microbial pathogenesis, vascular biology, and neurobiology research.

Since its inception in 1896, the goal of The Journal of Experimental Medicine (JEM) has been to publish outstanding and enduring studies in medical biology. At a time when many leading publishing groups are establishing topic-specific journals, we believe it is critical to complement that approach by offering a distinguished venue for publication of studies that integrate disciplines within the field of pathogenesis. A distinctive editorial system supports this goal with an emphasis on exceptional service to our authors. Two groups of editors work hand-in hand: professional editors with strong scientific backgrounds, and full-time practicing scientists. At least one editor from each group evaluates the merits of each paper prior to external review. The editors convene weekly to discuss all papers with external referee comments, and reach rapid decisions without excessive requests for revision. Within the field of medical biology we focus both on human studies and diverse in vivo experimental models of human disease that address such topics as genetics, inflammation, immunity, infectious disease, cancer, vascular biology, metabolic disorders, neuroscience, and stem cell biology. We welcome reports ranging from atomic-level analyses to clinical interventions that illustrate new mechanisms.

Shaima Salman, Alexander D. MacKerell, Gregg L. Semenza et al. develop the first dual HIF-1/2 inhibitors that bind to the most highly conserved domains of both proteins, show activity against a range of cancers, are orally bioavailable, & markedly improve responses to immune checkpoint blockade in mouse tumor models. https://hubs.la/Q049rWjN0

📰 : Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine and University of Maryland School of Pharmacy have developed a set of novel, first-in-class drugs that inhibit hypoxia-inducible factors 1 and 2, a pair of transcription factors considered to be “master regulators” of cancer progression 👉 https://hubs.la/Q049gfRy0

The study, published today in the Journal of Experimental Medicine (JEM), (https://hubs.la/Q049glrs0) shows that these drugs, when combined with immunotherapy, can completely eliminate breast, colorectal, melanoma, and prostate tumors in mice, suggesting that they could eventually be used to treat a broad range of cancers in humans.

Patrycja M. Forster, Christoph S.N. Klose and colleagues (Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin) identify the transcriptional network controlling effector functions of ILC2s downstream of the IL-33 receptor: the Blimp-1–IRF4 axis regulates IL-5 and IL-13 production, driving either worm expulsion or during allergic lung inflammation https://hubs.la/Q0493y0x0

Lun Li, Mark Kahn et al.

📰 : Researchers at Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania have identified a cell surface receptor protein called TIE2 as the missing link between two key signaling pathways that drive the growth of blood vessel abnormalities known as cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs). The study, published today in JEM (https://hubs.ly/Q048Cf260), suggests that drugs targeting TIE2 could be used to prevent the formation of CCMs, which, if left untreated, can cause brain hemorrhages, strokes, and seizures. https://hubs.ly/Q048CfBP0
