Epigenetics
Epigenetics explores heritable changes in gene expression that occur without altering the DNA sequence itself. These changes are influenced by factors such as environment, lifestyle, stress, aging, and disease states. Epigenetic mechanisms—including DNA methylation, histone modification, and non-coding RNAs—act as molecular switches that turn genes on or off. Epigenetics plays a central role in development, cellular differentiation, cancer progression, neurological disorders, and metabolic diseases. Unlike genetic mutations, epigenetic changes are reversible, making them promising targets for therapeutic intervention. Epigenetic therapies aim to restore normal gene expression patterns through drugs that modify chromatin structure or regulatory pathways.

| Stage 1 |
Initial Quality & Plagiarism Check The manuscript is reviewed for journal scope, basic submission requirements, ethical compliance, and similarity/plagiarism concerns. |
| Stage 2 |
Editorial Assessment & Peer Review Manuscripts that pass the initial screening undergo editorial assessment and independent peer review in accordance with the journal's peer-review policy. |
| Stage 3 |
Revision & Editorial Decision Authors may be requested to revise their manuscript based on reviewer and editor comments. A final editorial decision is made after the required review and revision stages are completed. |
| Stage 4 |
Production & Publication Accepted manuscripts proceed to production, author proofing, final quality checks, and online publication. |
