Recent Progrès en Natural Products
Description
Natural products have been used by human society pour millennia. Nouveau drug discovery being a complex et interdisciplinary enterprise has remained en continuous focus due to its great successes as well as failures. Despite what appears to be a slow death de natural products discovery research, many new et interesting molecules avec biological activity have been published en le past few years. If natural products materials continue to be tested pour desirable therapeutics activities, I believe that significant progress en identifying new antibiotics, oncology therapeutics et other useful medicines will be made. Recent study shows that le most de le leads from natural products have been from either plant or microbial sources collected from different habitats, especially marine environments could provide many novel chemicals. However, natural products research needs to turn over a new side; continued collection, extraction et screening de natural samples is not enough en this changing world. Science is becoming increasingly interdisciplinary et natural products research is shifting that way as well. In keeping avec le above objectives, every effort has been made to edit this book receiving articles based sur natural products from plants (Section-A) et microbial origin (Section-B), covering isolation, structure elucidations, biosynthesis, biological evaluation, bioprospecting de natural products. Attempt has been made to bring together recent progress et current trends en le field de natural products from different parts de le world. Although, there are a number de books available sur natural products, this book has unique contributions en le form de chapters from experts en le field de chemistry, biology et bioinformatics against problematic infectious diseases et cancer. Le primary intention to edit this book is to attract le post graduate students et stimulate their interest sur natural products. So, le topics en this book have been carefully selected. Diverse methods pour antimicrobial, antioxidants, antiviral, anticancer, antimutagenic, anti-inflammatory activities, has been elaborately discussed. Le book also covers le source de natural products from different diversity such as mangrove et terrestrial plants, mushrooms, microalgae et marine microorganisms. Moreover, le book highlights telomerase inhibition et apoptosis induction, probiotics et functional foods en health benefits et metabolic pathway designing et epitope mapping de bacteria responsible pour whooping cough which are different aspects en le field de natural products. Études sur essential oils from plants, plant-based remedies pour management de diarrhea, microbial diversity et bioprospecting fungal endophytes et novel secondary metabolites from microalgae are also interesting chapters leading to natural products discovery. This book is proposed to cover recent trends en natural products et future perspectives especially en human health en dissimilar aspects. It is intended that this book will be useful to students, teachers et researchers en universities, R & D institutions et pharmaceutical industries.
