Human Diseases

The human body is made up of millions of cells each specialising in a particular function like the sensing light and smell or even the absorption of oxygen into the blood. Chromosomes are sub-cellular structures that exist in the nucleus of each cell that makes up the human body. There are 23 pairs of chromosomes existing in the human cell. Quite simply chromosomes are responsible for transferring genetic information from one generation to another. Humans have two types of chromosomes- sex chromosomes and autosomes. There are two sex chromosomes, the X chromosome and the Y chromosome. They determine the sex of the individual. A male child inherits a Y from his father and X chromosome from the mother whereas a female child inherits X chromosomes from both her parents. Chromosomes are made up of tightly packed lengths of Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid commonly referred to as DNA, which in turn contain information needed to control the production of proteins. DNA controls which proteins will be produced in what quantity and when. Proteins are molecules that play an important role in determining the structure and function of the body’s cells tissues and organs. Proteins are made up of amino acids. Citations are important for a journal to get impact factor. Impact factor is a measure reflecting the average number of citations to recent articles published in the journal. The impact of the journal is influenced by impact factor, the journals with high impact factor are considered more important than those with lower ones. This information can be published in our peer reviewed journal with impact factors and are calculated using citations not only from research articles but also review articles (which tend to receive more citations), editorials, letters, meeting abstracts, short communications, and case reports.
