Omics sudies of medicinal plants
Herbal drugs play a pivotal role in modern medicine and pharmaceutical care; however, only limited biotechnology applications have been seen in medicinal plants. Revolutions in high-throughput approaches emphasize omics approaches, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. A volume in the Exploring Medicinal Plants series, this book provides a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of breakthroughs in high-throughput approaches for the research of medicinal plants.
Natural anti-depressant drugs
Mental health problem and neurological disorders are a serious public health concern globally with more than one billion sufferers worldwide. Depression, anxiety, stress, and other mental disorders, which are on the rise worldwide, are indications that pharmacological therapy can have serious adverse effects, which is why many patients prefer to use herbal products to treat these symptoms. Because pharmacotherapy of depression is a long-term process associated with the risk of numerous adverse drug effects, much attention is paid to alternative therapy methods, including phytopharmacotherapy, especially in treating mild or moderate depression.
Herbal Products : Toxicology and Clinical Pharmacology
Herbal Products: Toxicology and Clinical Pharmacology, Second Edition builds upon the informative foundation laid by its predecessor. This fully revised and expanded second edition boasts over 200 new references that document efficacy studies and adverse effects and four new chapters devoted to dietary products.
Herbal pharmacopeia : Nanotechnology and advancing drug
Explores the intersection between traditional herbal medicine and cutting-edge nanotechnology. The chapters introduce modern techniques used in herbal extraction and analysis. The principles of drug discovery from plants are discussed, with a focus on the identification and development of bioactive compounds that have therapeutic potential. It discusses the pharmacological properties, biotechnological approaches in drug development, and challenges in the formulation and standardization of herbal medicines. Emerging trends and applications of nanotechnology in herbal pharmacotherapy, such as nanoparticle synthesis, enhanced bioavailability using nanocarriers, safety assessments, novel and targeted delivery systems, and regulatory considerations, are thoroughly discussed. Additionally, it includes a comparative analysis of traditional and nano-formulated approaches and their implementation in clinical settings. Towards the end, the book reviews the regulatory considerations for herbal products and future perspectives in herbal pharmacopeia. This book is intended for researchers, clinicians, and professionals in herbal medicine, pharmacology, and nanotechnology.
Fundamentals of drug and non-drug interactions : physiopathological perspectives and clinical approaches
Covers nutrients, active principles from phytotherapy/herbal products, and drug classes while identifying potential interactions. Didactic approaches to drug and non-drug interactions and cutting-edge reports are included in each chapter that promotes safer drug prescription and use. The physiopathological overview in this book provides background for chemistry, pharmacology, and mechanistic bases of drug and non-drug interaction as well as clinical cases and predictive screenings.
