Publisher: Brill Academic Publishers

Official Publication of the Gastrointestinal Section of the International
Union of Pharmacology (IUPHAR)

Inflammopharmacology publishes papers on all aspects of inflammation and its
pharmacological control emphasizing comparisons of (a) different
inflammatory states, and (b) the actions, therapeutic efficacy and safety of
drugs employed in the treatment of inflammatory conditions.

The comparative aspects of the types of inflammatory conditions include
gastrointestinal disease (e.g. ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease),
parasitic diseases, toxicological manifestations of the effects of drugs and
environmental agents, and arthritic conditions.

The journal has four main interest areas:

    * Conditional Pharmacology/Toxicology ­ i.e. where the condition
(disease or stress state) influences the therapeutic response and side
(adverse) effects from anti-inflammatory drugs. Mechanisms of drug-disease
and drug disease interactions and the role of different stress states
    * Rheumatology ­ particular emphasis on methods of measurement of
clinical response effects of new agents, adverse effects from anti-rheumatic
drugs
    * Gastroenterology ­ with particular emphasis on animal and human
models, mechanisms of mucosal inflammation and ulceration and effects of
novel and established anti-ulcer, anti-inflammatory agents, or antiparasitic
agents
    * Pulmonary Inflammation ­ model systems, pharmacology of new agents and
mechanisms of inflammation.
