Abstract

Nitric Oxide is entering a new phase, marked by a redefinition of its scope, editorial policies, and structural organization. Reflecting the evolution of the nitric oxide field toward a broader focus on small molecule signaling in redox biology and medicine, the journal now explicitly welcomes mechanistic, translational, and interdisciplinary studies, including work on hydrogen sulfide, persulfides, and carbon monoxide. Key editorial changes include a streamlined peer review process eliminating major revisions, invitation-only review articles, and accelerated decision timelines. A newly appointed Editorial Board and a dedicated Reviewer Board aim to enhance scientific rigor and mentorship. Additional initiatives include curated method collections and a strengthened social media presence to improve reproducibility, engagement, and visibility. These changes are designed to position Nitric Oxide as a focused and responsive journal serving the evolving needs of the redox biology community.

一氧化氮的新方向——聚焦、快速和前瞻性。

《一氧化氮》正在进入一个新的阶段，其标志是其范围、编辑政策和结构组织的重新定义。反映了一氧化氮领域向氧化还原生物学和医学中更广泛关注小分子信号的发展，该杂志现在明确欢迎机制、转化和跨学科的研究，包括硫化氢、过硫化物和一氧化碳的研究。关键的编辑变化包括精简的同行评审流程，消除重大修改，仅限邀请的评审文章，以及加快决策时间表。新任命的编辑委员会和专门的审稿委员会旨在加强科学严谨性和指导。其他计划包括策划方法集合和加强社会媒体的存在，以提高再现性、参与度和可见性。这些变化的目的是定位一氧化氮作为一个专注和响应杂志服务于氧化还原生物界不断发展的需求。

期刊介绍： Nitric Oxide includes original research, methodology papers and reviews relating to nitric oxide and other gasotransmitters such as hydrogen sulfide and carbon monoxide. Special emphasis is placed on the biological chemistry, physiology, pharmacology, enzymology and pathological significance of these molecules in human health and disease. The journal also accepts manuscripts relating to plant and microbial studies involving these molecules.
