由生物醫(yī)學(xué)中心出版。ISSN: 1744 - 8069。分子疼痛是一個(gè)相對(duì)較新的、發(fā)展迅速的研究領(lǐng)域，是傳統(tǒng)疼痛研究的一個(gè)新進(jìn)展。分子疼痛研究涉及細(xì)胞、亞細(xì)胞和分子水平的生理和病理疼痛。這些研究將疼痛研究與分子生物學(xué)、基因組學(xué)、蛋白質(zhì)組學(xué)、現(xiàn)代電生理學(xué)和神經(jīng)生物學(xué)相結(jié)合。近年來，分子疼痛研究領(lǐng)域得到了迅速的發(fā)展，對(duì)于確定治療頑固性疼痛的高度特異性和有效靶點(diǎn)具有重要的前景。盡管已有幾家期刊發(fā)表了關(guān)于經(jīng)典疼痛研究的文章，但沒有一家專門致力于分子疼痛研究。因此，需要一本新的研究分子疼痛的雜志。《分子疼痛》是一本開放獲取、同行評(píng)議的在線期刊，它將為分子疼痛科學(xué)家提供一個(gè)論壇，讓他們有針對(duì)性地將自己的研究成果傳達(dá)給這個(gè)重要且正在發(fā)展的領(lǐng)域的其他人。

Published by BioMed Central. ISSN: 1744-8069.Molecular pain is a relatively new and rapidly expanding research field that represents an advanced step from conventional pain research. Molecular pain research addresses physiological and pathological pain at the cellular, subcellular and molecular levels. These studies integrate pain research with molecular biology, genomics, proteomics, modern electrophysiology and neurobiology. The field of molecular pain research has been rapidly expanding in the recent years, and has great promise for the identification of highly specific and effective targets for the treatment of intractable pain. Although several existing journals publish articles on classical pain research, none are specifically dedicated to molecular pain research. Therefore, a new journal focused on molecular pain research is needed. Molecular Pain, an Open Access, peer-reviewed, online journal, will provide a forum for molecular pain scientists to communicate their research findings in a targeted manner to others in this important and growing field.
