JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSIOLOGY

The Journal of Applied Physiology publishes original papers that deal with diverse areas of research in applied physiology, especially those emphasizing adaptive and integrative mechanisms. Adaptive physiology includes 1) inherent adaptations such as those related to development, aging, and pathophysiological conditions and 2) adaptations to the external environment such as those occurring with exercise, microgravity, hypoxia, hypo- and hyperbaria, and hypo- and hyperthermic conditions. Integrative physiology includes 1) horizontal integration across organ systems and 2) vertical integration from molecule to cell to organ. In all areas of applied physiology, the use of cutting-edge techniques including molecular and cellular biology is strongly encouraged.

《应用生理学杂志》发表了涉及应用生理学各个领域的原始论文，特别是那些强调适应性和整合机制的论文。适应性生理学包括1）与发育、衰老和病理生理条件有关的固有适应；2）对外部环境的适应，如运动、微重力、低氧、低气压和高气压以及低热和高热条件。整合生理学包括1）跨器官系统的横向整合；2）从分子到细胞到器官的纵向整合。在应用生理学的所有领域，强烈鼓励使用包括分子生物学和细胞生物学在内的尖端技术。
