About the journal
Online ISSN: 1600-065X
Issues per Volume: Bi-monthly
Current Volume: 191
While each volume of Immunological Reviews is devoted to a single topic of immunological resarch, collectively their aim is to provide a broad and continously updated survey of advances in basic immunology and their clinical applications. Selected topics may represent fields in which knowledge or understanding are expanding, areas in which previously seperated lines of investigation are being synthesized or subjects in which previously held view are challenged by more recent findings. Authors invited to contribute to each volume of Immunological Reviews are chosen by the Editorial Board. The tradition of Immunological Reviews is for each author (or group of authors) to focus on reviewing their own contributions and give a synthesis of their research and views. As a group the articles in each volume aim to provide comprehensive coverage of the topic.
Instructions to Authors
Please send 3 paper copies of your manuscript on paper and an electronic version of the manuscript on a newly formatted 3.5-inch floppy disk to:
Editor-in-Chief
Gary Koretzky, MD, PhD
Abramson Family Cancer Research Institute
415 BRBII/III
421 Curie Blvd
University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

Submission of an electronic version of your manuscript that is identical to the printed hard copy and ensure that your text is converted and typeset as accurately and rapidly as possible and is properly prepared for publication.
The preferred word-processing software for manuscript preparation is Word or WordPerfect for DOS, Windows or Macintosh, but other programs intended specifically for word processing can be used. Please do not convert your manuscript to ASCII format. Label the disk you submit clearly with the journal name, volume number, author and title, file content, article number, computer system (DOS, Windows or Macintosh), word processor (Word, WordPerfect etc.) and version. Also on the disk label indicate whether you prefer American or British English spelling. The first manuscript page (title page) should contain the title and authors' names, telephone and fax numbers and e-mail and full postal addresses. The first page must also specify your computer system (DOS, Windows or Macintosh) and word processor.

Summary
The second manuscript page should contain the running title (not more than 45 characters) and a 200-word summary of the article.
Text
Make headings in normal uppercase and lowercase letters as they appear in the journal. Use one or two levels of headings. Make the first level of headings bold and the second level in normal letters
Do not use the return or enter key at the end of lines within a paragraph - allow the word processor to wrap the text to fit the margins.
Only use a hyphen in compound words.
Separate words and sentences by one space only, made with the space bar.
Avoid emphasizing normal words. Italic has several specific purposes: for example, the Latin names of most plants and animals. Non-assimilated words from Latin or other languages should be italicized e.g. in vivo, in vitro, per se, etc. Indicate italics with the italic feature of your program and not underlining.
Number references in the order they appear in the text followed by those references that appear in the figure legends and tables.
Figure is abbreviated as Fig., but Table is not abbreviated. Avoid using a style with many footnotes; incorporate points into the main text wherever possible. If a footnote seems indispensable, use asterisk(s) (*) as superscript(s) and place a footnote at the bottom of the page on which the reference to it appears using the footnote function of your word processor.
Unpublished data from sources not yet accepted for publication, including your own, should not be included in the list of references, but may be referred to in the text or in a footnote as unpublished data or personal communications, including the source of data if relevant (for example, conference presentations).
Special Characters and Technical Instructions
Use the correct characters in your character set for Greek letters and for mathematical and other symbols. The Symbol font includes Greek and some mathematical characters and other symbols. Represent characters not available on your word processor by unique symbols such as @, #. £ or $ throughout the entire text, and provide the key to these characters.
Use the degree sign (ASCII code 161 ) when writing 37. Use (beta) and not ß (German double "s"). Use µ (not in italics) for mu (and not u or u), as in µ (micron). Use the prime symbol ( ') for minute only in reporting angles and measurement of latitude and longitude; otherwise use "min". The prime symbol is a special symbol: ASCII code 162, Symbol font in Word for Windows, Word for Macintosh and WordPerfect for Macintosh; or character 45 in character set 6 in WordPerfect for Windows. For example, prime is used in adenosine 5'-triphosphate: not a single quotation mark (5') or accent (5') or apostrophe (5').
Indicate clearly if Greek letters are to be printed as single letters or written in full (alpha, beta, gamma, etc.).
Use Arabic numbers wherever possible, instead of writing out numbers as words, even when beginning a sentence or paragraph: use 1 (one) instead of lowercase "l" (el) and 0 (zero) instead of O (uppercase o).
Use - for cross (multiplication sign and magnification) and not the letter x or X. Write N. cm and m. s-' (using a centered dot, ASCII code 225) instead of N.crn and m.s- (period).
Use the ASM style manual as a guide for abbreviations and symbols. All units must be metric. Use 37C, 3H, 14C, Min (for minutes), h (for hours), s (for seconds), ml and g; abbreviate liters as l in compound units such as g/l but "3 liters". Use official or standardized nomenclature whenever available.
Do not change your word processor's default font size for superscript and subscript. Indicate clearly where superscript and subscript should be used if you are unable to make it on your computer.
Abbreviations
If a number of abbreviations are used they can be listed before the references.
Tables and Figures
Tables should be supplied as paper copies and as electronic versions on the disk as separate files in Encapsulation PostScript (EPS) or TIFF.
Number tables and figures with Arabic numerals in the order they appear, and give them brief explanatory titles. Extensive description of the table content should be given beneath the table.
References to figures and tables in the text should be in italics: (Fig. 3. Table 1).
Indicate in both the electronic and paper versions the preferred location of figures and tables, stating figure or table number in parentheses in bold. (Place Fig. no.... Table no.... here) Leave 3 blank lines before and after the indication.
All figures should always be supplied as paper copies: that is, a non-electronic form such as original photographs, drawings, prints, etc. Figures created electronically should be included on the disk as separate files in Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) or TIFF.
Use the facilities of your word processor to create tables. Do not use a spreadsheet program. If your word processor does not have a table function, use only one tab to separate each column in a table.
Do not create lines above, within or below a table, as this makes it difficult to convert.
Footnotes in tables are indicated by letters a, b, c, d, etc., as superscripts and listed in separate rows at the bottom of the table. Insert one space between the footnote number and the subsequent text as shown below:
a This is the text for footnote a.
b This is the text for footnote b.
For photographs and micrographs, submission of original black and-white or colour negatives or slides will ensure the best possible reproduction.
No extra charge is made for colour illustrations.
Cover Illustration
The front cover of each issue of Immunological Reviews contains a colour illustration related to the topic of the issues. Authors are invited to submit illustrations for consideration for the cover.
References
Place the references as a separate section at the end of the article. All authors cited, and only these, must be listed at the end of the manuscript.
Number citations in the text in the order of appearance in the text with Arabic numerals in parentheses "according to Jones & Brown (5, 6) and Smith et al. (1 0) "; "following earlier work (1-4), we ...
Abbreviate the tides of journals according to the List of Journals indexed printed annually in the January issue of Index Medicus/MEDLINE.
In each reference, list all authors except when there are seven or more, in which case only the first one should be given and 11 et al." added. References should be in Vancouver style as described in BMJ 1991;302:338-341. Examples of this style are:
