This journal focuses on the mechanisms of disease, examining cellular and molecular processes that underlie various pathologies. It covers topics such as the role of specific cell types like microglia and fibroblasts in disease, the interplay between metabolism and epigenetics in cancer, the pathology of infectious diseases including viral infections, and the genetic and molecular underpinnings of cancers and inflammatory conditions. The journal also explores mechanisms of cell death, DNA repair, and tissue homeostasis in the context of disease.
