Literature data underscore the significance and diversity of secondary metabolites extracted from plants, with alkaloids standing out as a particularly crucial group for drug discovery and development. Alkaloids, nitrogenous compounds, exhibit notable structural diversity and are recognized for their diverse pharmacological effects, including impacts on the central nervous system and tumo…
Natural products (NPs) have been part of drug discovery process, including cancer therapy. However, a constant hurdle in cancer area is drug resistance. Alternatively, treatment strategies can be combined to control or inhibit the proliferation. In executing such strategies, Science observes the return of NPs discoveries, after decades of focus on synthetic chemistry. The advances regardi…
The Rutaceae family, which includes around 170 genera and 2,000 species, is predominantly found in tropical and temperate regions. Within this family, Conchocarpus J. C. Mikan holds particular significance, having recently led to the establishment of the genus Dryades Groppo, Kallunki & Pirani based on morphological and molecular analyses. However, there is a notable scarcity of chemical …
Natural products (NPs) have played a crucial role in drug discovery, including those intended for cancer therapy. However, a persistent challenge in oncology is drug resistance. As an alternative, combined treatment strategies can be employed to control or inhibit cell proliferation. In implementing these strategies, a return to a focus on natural products has been observed after decades …
Natural products, when used as herbicide, destroy the vegetal tissues by contact action, featuring quickly action and some cases, require less half an hour for the target plant becomes vulnerable to these compounds. The use of natural products as prototypes for finding of herbicides is an area which is being operated slowly, perhaps by small number of researchers in the area, fault jobs i…
This research initiative is based on the use of new methodologies for designing chloroplasts from plants in different biological systems aiming the biosynthesis of active natural products. The main strategy will be accomplished through the redirection of biosynthetic pathways (towards the chloroplast) of some important classes of natural products, and also by the optimization of the elect…
