About Journal of Evolving Stem Cell Research

Advancing molecular understanding of stem cell biology through rigorous peer-reviewed research in cellular differentiation, pluripotency regulation, and regenerative mechanisms.

Illuminating Stem Cell Molecular Landscapes

The Journal of Evolving Stem Cell Research (JESR) (ISSN 2574-4372) is a globally recognized, peer-reviewed, open access publication dedicated to advancing molecular and cellular understanding of stem cell biology. Published by Open Access Pub, JESR disseminates cutting-edge research that explores the fundamental mechanisms governing stem cell behavior, from gene regulatory networks to protein interactions that control cellular fate decisions.

Our editorial mission centers on three pillars: mechanistic rigor through comprehensive molecular analysis, reproducible methodology supported by transparent data sharing, and open accessibility via Creative Commons licensing. We publish original research, comprehensive reviews, and methodological innovations that reveal how stem cells maintain pluripotency, execute differentiation programs, and respond to microenvironmental signals at the molecular level.

JESR serves the international stem cell research community - molecular biologists, geneticists, biochemists, and cellular scientists - who investigate the molecular machinery underlying stem cell function and seek to translate basic discoveries into regenerative strategies.

Molecular Focus & Research Scope

JESR publishes research that elucidates the molecular foundations of stem cell biology through experimental investigation of cellular processes, signaling cascades, and genetic regulation. Our scope encompasses fundamental discoveries that clarify how stem cells function at the molecular and cellular level.

Gene Regulatory Networks

Transcription factor hierarchies, epigenetic modifications, chromatin remodeling, and regulatory elements controlling pluripotency and differentiation programs.

Cellular Signaling Pathways

Wnt, Notch, TGF-beta, and other signaling cascades that regulate stem cell self-renewal, lineage commitment, and microenvironmental responses.

Protein Structure & Function

Structural biology of stem cell-specific proteins, post-translational modifications, protein-protein interactions, and functional domains.

Omics-Based Discovery

Genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics approaches revealing molecular profiles of stem cell states and transitions.

Differentiation Mechanisms

Molecular cascades orchestrating lineage specification, including timing, sequence, and coordination of differentiation events.

Pluripotency Molecular Control

Core transcriptional circuits, reprogramming factors, and molecular mechanisms maintaining embryonic and induced pluripotent states.

Cellular Metabolism

Metabolic pathways, mitochondrial function, metabolite regulation, and bioenergetics underlying stem cell maintenance and differentiation.

Stem Cell Niche Interactions

Molecular mechanisms of cell-cell communication, extracellular matrix signaling, and niche factor regulation of stem cell behavior.

Model System Development

Organoid technologies, in vitro differentiation platforms, and experimental systems for molecular investigation of stem cell processes.

Scope Alignment: JESR focuses on fundamental molecular and cellular mechanisms. Research emphasizing basic science discovery, mechanistic investigation, and molecular pathway elucidation is prioritized. Studies must center on cellular and molecular processes rather than therapeutic outcomes or patient applications.
Publication Process & Peer Review

JESR maintains rigorous standards for molecular biology research through comprehensive peer review that evaluates experimental design, methodological validity, data interpretation, and reproducibility. Our editorial team ensures published research meets high standards for scientific rigor and contributes meaningful mechanistic insight.

Initial Submission Review

Editorial team assesses manuscript scope alignment, methodological soundness, and adherence to submission guidelines within 3-5 business days.

Expert Peer Evaluation

Two or more reviewers with specialized molecular biology expertise evaluate experimental design, data quality, statistical analysis, and interpretation validity.

Editorial Decision

Editors synthesize reviewer feedback to render decisions on acceptance, revision, or rejection, typically within 3 weeks of submission receipt.

Revision & Re-Review

Authors address reviewer concerns with revised manuscripts and detailed response letters. Re-review ensures adequate response to scientific critiques.

Publication Preparation

Accepted manuscripts undergo copyediting, formatting, and DOI assignment before rapid online publication with open access availability.

Submission Pathways

JESR offers multiple submission routes to accommodate researcher preferences and institutional workflows:

  • Online Submission Form: Streamlined digital submission through the online portal with real-time confirmation and tracking capabilities.
  • Email Submission: Direct manuscript submission via email to [email protected] with comprehensive submission documentation.
  • Manuscript Zone Platform: Advanced submission management through Manuscript Zone with integrated peer review tracking and dashboard monitoring.

All submissions must follow JESR author guidelines including structured abstracts, comprehensive methods sections, transparent data reporting, and adherence to community standards for experimental reproducibility.

Methodological Standards: JESR requires detailed methods documentation sufficient for independent replication. Authors must report sample sizes, statistical approaches, experimental controls, and validation strategies. Raw data availability and code sharing are strongly encouraged to support reproducibility.
Editorial Integrity & Stakeholder Roles

JESR's publication framework establishes clear responsibilities for authors, editors, and reviewers to maintain research integrity, ethical standards, and scientific quality throughout the publication process.

Author Responsibilities

Authors conduct original research with methodological rigor, report findings accurately without fabrication or falsification, ensure proper attribution and citation, disclose conflicts of interest transparently, and provide data access for verification when requested. Plagiarism and duplicate publication are strictly prohibited.

Editor Responsibilities

Editors oversee fair peer review processes, evaluate scientific merit impartially, maintain confidentiality of submissions, manage conflicts of interest appropriately, enforce ethical standards, and make publication decisions based on research quality rather than external pressures or commercial considerations.

Reviewer Responsibilities

Reviewers provide expert evaluation of methodology, data interpretation, and scientific significance. They assess reproducibility, identify potential flaws, offer constructive feedback for improvement, maintain submission confidentiality, declare conflicts of interest, and complete reviews within agreed timeframes.

Ethics & Compliance: Research involving human tissues, embryonic materials, or animals must include appropriate institutional approval documentation, ethical oversight verification, and adherence to international guidelines. JESR adheres to Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) standards for addressing misconduct allegations and ensuring research integrity.
Open Access & Research Dissemination

JESR publishes all content under open access licensing, ensuring global scientific community access without subscription barriers. This model accelerates discovery dissemination, facilitates data integration across studies, and maximizes research impact through unrestricted availability.

  • Immediate online publication following acceptance and copyediting completion
  • Creative Commons licensing enabling reuse with proper attribution
  • Permanent DOI assignment for reliable citation and archival stability
  • Indexing in major scientific databases for enhanced discoverability
  • No embargo periods or access restrictions limiting research availability
  • Author retention of copyright with broad dissemination rights

Authors can review complete open access policies, article processing charges, and waiver programs through JESR's aims and scope documentation. We support equitable access to publication for researchers globally regardless of institutional resources.
