This 2-volume book set, Phytochemistry and Pharmacology of Medicinal Plants, introduces and provides extensive coverage of 79 important medicinal plant species. Each chapter, written by noted experts in the field, focuses on one important medicinal plant, giving a brief introduction about the species and then delving into the plant’s bioactive phytochemicals along with its chemical structures and pharmacological activities. A wide array of biological activities and potential health benefits of the medicinal plant—which includes antiviral, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic properties as well as protective effects on liver, kidney, heart and nervous system—are given. An extensive collection of research literature on pharmacological activities on that species is reviewed. This volume, published under the AAP Focus on Medicinal Plants book series, edited by the accomplished editor, T. Pullaiah, who has taught, researched, written, and published on medicinal plants for over 35 years, will be an important reference resource for years to come for both new and experienced medicinal researchers.

This new 2-volume set offers a comprehensive review of more than 80 medicinal plant species, providing information on the bioactives and pharmacology of these beneficial plants. It describes the structures of the secondary metabolites found in these plants, the functions of these compounds in human and plant biology, and the biosynthesis of these compounds. Each chapter begins with a brief introduction about the species. The chapters then delve into the bioactive phytochemicals from the plant along with its chemical structure. The published literature on pharmacological activities on that species is comprehensively reviewed. A wide array of the biological activities and potential health benefits of the medicinal plant (which include antiviral, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and antidiabetic properties as well as protective effects on liver, kidney, heart and nervous system) are given. Phytochemical Composition and Pharmacy of Medicinal Plants aims to be valuable source book for scientists, researchers, industry professionals, faculty and students for the development of new and effective drugs from medicinal plants.
This book starts with a general introduction to phytochemistry, followed by chapters on plant constituents, their origins and chemistry, but also discussing animal-, microorganism- and mineral-based drugs. Further chapters cover vitamins, food additives and excipients as well as xenobiotics and poisons. The book also explores the herbal approach to disease management and molecular pharmacognosy and introduces methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis of plant constituents. Phytochemicals are classified as primary (e.g. carbohydrates, lipids, amino acid derivations, etc.) or secondary (e.g. alkaloids, terpenes and terpenoids, phenolic compounds, glycosides, etc.) metabolites according to their metabolic route of origin, chemical structure and function. A wide variety of primary and secondary phytochemicals are present in medicinal plants, some of which are active phytomedicines and some of which are pharmaceutical excipients.
Present volume 4 of the series, Medicinal Plants: Phytochemistry, Pharmacology and Therapeutics contains 29 review/research chapters received from eminent scientists from India and abroad, the notable amongst include: Phytochemistry, Pharmacology and Therapeutics of Coptis Pharmacological Activities and Therapeutic Potential of Sarca asoca Anticancer Activity of Indian Medicinal Plant Bael, Aegle marmelos (L.) Correa Efficacy and Pre-clinical Safety Pharmacological Evaluation of Lavangadi Vati Pharmacological and Phytochemical Screening of Callicarpa arborea Roxb. Ionic Liquids: Green Solvents for the Extraction of Phytoconstituents Elderberry, its Constituents and Use in Treating Gastrointestinal Ailments Pharmacognosy, Phytochemistry, Pharmacology and HPTLC Fingerprint Profile of Averrhoa bilimbi L.; Ficus Genera: A Promising Genera for Development of New Anti-Diabetic Drugs? The Cytotoxic Effect of Phellinus durrisimus with respect to other Anticancer Drugs Activity of Centella asiatica (Linn).U. on Bacterial Flora of Human Skin Antigenotoxic Potential of Punica granatum in Breast Cancer Patients Anti-allergic and Anti-anaphylactic Activity Profile of Pothos scandens in Rodents Anticancer Activity of Methanol Extract of Green Tea against Cervical Cancer Therapeutic Evaluation of Moringa oleifera Seeds against Trypanosma evansi Gastric Ulcer Protective Activity of Acorus calamus Linn. in Laboratory Animals UV-VIS and HPLC Studies on Amphiroa anceps (Lamarck) Decaisne Novel Synthesis of Silver Nanopeptides of Selaginella intermedia Pharmacological and Phytochemical Screenings of Bidens sulphurea Cav. Cytotoxic Activity of Ficus racemosa against Non-small Cell Lung Carcinoma A549 Cells The studies included are likely to lead further researches in this direction and it is hoped that this publication would attract world wide audience of phytochemists, biochemists, pharmacologists, ethnopharmacologists, ethnobotanists and others engaged in the allied disciplines.
This two-volume book presents an abundance of important information on the bioactive and pharmacological properties of medicinal plants. It provides valuable comprehensive research and studies on bioactive phytocompounds of over 68 important medicinal plants with beneficial properties. For each species included in the volume, a brief introduction is given along with their bioactive compounds and chemical structures, followed by their chief pharmacological activities that include antiviral, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, nephroprotective, and cardioprotective activities. A review of the published literature on pharmacological activities of each species is included also, providing a thorough resource on each of the plants covered in the volume. The book’s editor, an acknowledged expert in this area, foresees that these volumes will become a reliable standard resource for the development of new drugs. The volumes will be a valuable addition to the libraries of pharmacy institutes and pharmacy professors, research scholars, and postgraduate students of pharmacy and medicine, and enlightened medical professionals and pharmacists, phytochemists, and botanists will find much of value as well.
As volume 2 of this three-volume set on phytochemistry, this book features chapters that comprehensively review a selection of important recent advances in ethnopharmacology and alternative and complementary medicines. It also presents many informative chapters on the medicinal potential of phytochemicals in the treatment and management of various diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, diabetic nephropathy, autoimmune diseases, neurological disorders, male infertility, and more.
