Journal scope
Endocrine Regulations (since 1967 to 1990 Endocrinologia Experimentalis) is an international journal devoted to publish outstanding original articles and reviews in experimental and clinical endocrinology. Manuscripts dealing with molecular and cellular endocrinology, neuroendocrinology/signal transduction, metabolism and diabetes, pharmacology, and genetic aspects of endocrinology will be considered.
Endocrine Regulations has now moved to online submission and review system.

Electronic artwork
When your electronic artwork is finalised, save it as or convert the images into JPG or TIFF formats. For color or grayscale photographs (halftones): always use a minimum of 300 dpi.

Tables
The tables should be numbered consecutively in accordance with their appearance in the text. The data presented in tables should not be duplicated in the results or described elsewhere in the article.
Case Reports: are considered for publication if they describe new and carefully confirmed clinical findings. The manuscript preparation should follow the Instructions for Research articles outline with the following alterations: Methods, Results and Discussion can be written as a one section.
Short Communications: are manuscripts containing new clinical and experimental data of smaller scope. They should not exceed 3 printed pages and may include 1 table and 1 figure. The list of references at the end of the paper should not exceed 10 citations. The manuscript preparation should follow the Instructions for Research articles outline with the following alterations: a) no keywords and b) Methods, Results and Discussion can be written as a one section.
Review Articles: should cover a specific topic of endocrinology. They do not only to be exhaustive reviews, but also shorter articles intended either to draw attention to developments in a specific field or to bring observations over a wide area which seems to point in a new direction.
