Cell Death & Disease is delighted to announce it has
published its 1000th article:The traditional Chinese medical compound Rocaglamide protects non- malignant primary cells from DNA damage-induced toxicity by inhibition of p53 expression. Read more about the accomplishments of the journal in the Editorials by Eric H. Baehrecke and Gerry Melino. To mark this achievement, we have published a web focus from Cell Death & Disease and Cell Death and Differentiation on anti-cancer therapies. Submit your paper to the only journal which provides centre stage to fundamental, disease- orientated and translational research in cell death and receive an excellent author experience. The future of next generation sequencing? A web focus from European Journal of Human Genetics and Oncogene Next generation sequencing is rapidly pervading all areas of Human genetics: improving speed, precision, and last but not least breadth of diagnostics; opening up new avenues of screening; are screening and testing still different or is there a confluence? In parallel, it profoundly affects basic biology discovery by unravelling mutation mechanisms and causes and consequences in gene regulation and what goes wrong in genetic disease and cancer. Besides many insights, the data deluge also brings questions: on how to handle this, internally and towards the patients; the role of geneticists in the process; how - and if - to integrate direct to consumer services; how to maintain a proper public-private balance to allow therapy development but avoid undue restrictions in data access. Follow the contributions to this debate in European Journal of Human Geneticsand Oncogene. 'Open' option for authors Oncogene offers authors the option to publish their articles with immediate open access upon publication. Open access articles will also be deposited on PubMed Central at the time of publication and will be freely available immediately. Find out more from our FAQs page. Using animals properly Read the updated guidelines on the welfare and use of animals in cancer research. All experiments should incorporate the 3Rs: replacement, reduction and refinement. Recommendations in this BJC article include topics in study design, choice of tumor models, and humane endpoints.
