Dear Editor,We would like to submit the enclosed manuscript entitled “GDNF Acutely Modulates Neuronal Excitability and A-type Potassium Channels in Midbrain Dopaminergic Neurons”， which we wish to be considered for publication in Nature Neuroscience.
GDNF has long been thought to be a potent neurotrophic factor for the survival of midbrain dopaminergic neurons, which are degenerated in Parkinson’s disease. In this paper, we report an unexpected, acute effect of GDNF on A-type potassium channels, leading to a potentiation of neuronal excitability, in the dopaminergic neurons in culture as well as in adult brain slices. Further, we show that GDNF regulates the K+ channels through a mechanism that involves activation of MAP kinase. Thus, this study has revealed, for the first time, an acute modulation of ion channels by GDNF. Our findings challenge the classic view of GDNF as a long-term survival factor for midbrain dopaminergic neurons, and suggest that the normal function of GDNF is to regulate neuronal excitability, and consequently dopamine release. These results may also have implications in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.
Due to a direct competition and conflict of interest, we request that Drs. XXX of Harvard Univ.， and YY of Yale Univ. not be considered as reviewers. With thanks for your consideration, I am
Sincerely yours,case2
Dear Editor,We would like to submit the enclosed manuscript entitled “Ca2+-binding protein frequenin mediates GDNF-induced potentiation of Ca2+ channels and transmitter release”， which we wish to be considered for publication in Neuron.
We believe that two aspects of this manuscript will make it interesting to general readers of Neuron. First, we report that GDNF has a long-term regulatory effect on neurotransmitter release at the neuromuscular synapses. This provides the first physiological evidence for a role of this new family of neurotrophic factors in functional synaptic transmission. Second, we show that the GDNF effect is mediated by enhancing the expression of the Ca2+-binding protein frequenin. Further, GDNF and frequenin facilitate synaptic transmission by enhancing Ca2+ channel activity, leading to an enhancement of Ca2+ influx. Thus, this study has identified, for the first time, a molecular target that mediates the long-term, synaptic action of a neurotrophic factor. Our findings may also have general implications in the cell biology of neurotransmitter release.

Dear Editor of the [please type in journal title or acronym]:
Enclosed is a paper, entitled “Mobile Agents for Network Management.” Please accept it as a candidate for publication in the [journal title]。 Below are our responses to your submission requirements.
1、 Title and the central theme of the article.
Paper title: “Mobile Agents for Network Management.” This study reviews the concepts of mobile agents and distributed network management system. It proposes a mobile agent-based implementation framework and creates a prototype system to demonstrate the superior performance of a mobile agent-based network over the conventional client-server architecture in a large network environment.
2、 Which subject/theme of the Journal the material fits
New enabling technologies （if no matching subject/theme, enter 'Subject highly related to [subject of journal] but not listed by [please type in journal title or acronym]）
3、 Why the material is important in its field and why the material should be published in [please type in journal title or acronym]？
The necessity of having an effective computer network is rapidly growing alongside the implementation of information technology. Finding an appropriate network management system
has become increasingly important today's distributed environment. However, the conventional centralized architecture, which routinely requests the status information of local units by the central server, is not sufficient to manage the growing requests. Recently, a new framework that uses mobile
agent technology to assist the distributed management has emerged. The mobile agent reduces network traffic, distributes management tasks, and improves operational performance. Given today's bandwidth demand over the Internet, it is important for the [journal title/acronym] readers
to understand this technology and its benefits. This study gives a real-life example of how to use mobile agents for distributed network management. It is the first in the literature that reports the analysis of network performance based on an operational prototype of mobile agent-based distributed
network. We strongly believe the contribution of this study warrants its publication in the [journal title/acronym]。

投稿信格式
1、投稿信的概念及其作用
投稿信，是个人或集体（写作集体）向报刊、电台或电视台投送稿件时写的专用书信。它一般随稿件同时寄发。投稿信，主要是介绍作者自己和稿件的有关情况，给对方考虑是否采用稿件时作参考。
2、投稿信的写作格式
投稿信的写作格式与一般书信相同，只是内容侧重点不同，所写事项更明确、更单一。
（1）第一行顶格写对方的称呼，如“《××× ×》杂志编辑部”、“编辑同志”、或“×× ×编辑同志”。
（2）开头。另起一行，空两格写问候语，如“你好”、“您好”或“你们好”。
（3）正文。正文的内容应根据具体情况来写，主要是介绍自己稿件的有关情况。一般应反映出以下几方面内容：
①表示对对方刊物、栏目的关注之情，并作出诚挚、中肯的评价，切忌措辞唐突或过分溢美之词。
②如实介绍自己的有关情况。
③写明投稿的缘由和稿件的有关情况。
④希望对方对稿件提出宝贵意见。
⑤希望对方采用稿件，并适当表达谢意。
⑥希望对方及时复信，表明是否采用稿件的明确态度。

《××××》编辑部诸同志：
你们好！
贵刊是国内学术界有影响的经济理论刊物，我一直比较关注。
近来，“知识经济‘’问题已成为学术界、经济理论界探讨的热点。贵刊
在全国同类刊物中最早推出专栏，研讨这一专题，把热点问题的探讨引入较高的理论层次，功不可没。专栏所载的诸篇大作，我都仔细拜读过，受益颇多。
我也是从事经济研究工作的，平时对”知识经济“这一专题也略有涉猎，通过社会考察实践也积累了一些资料。现根据自已的粗浅认识，写了《”知识经济“初探》一文，寄给你们。不顾汗颜，也想参与专栏讨论，以求抛砖引玉。不知是否够格入选？
拙文奉上，望诸位行家斧正，对此先致以诚挚的感谢。无论如何，还望你们拨冗及时回示，并请提出宝贵意见。
顺致
编安！
