Special Issue Information
Advances in Medicinal chemistry in recent decades are increasing enormously due to pathogenesis of diseases. Medicinal Chemistry helps in collaboration with scientific people in researching and developing new drugs. As a result drug discovery and drug research became predominant in role of controlling diseases with the discovery of powerful medicines like cytotoxic drugs, hypertensive drugs, antipyretic, anti-analgesic, anti HIV drugs, etc. Synthetic organic chemistry especially is involved in design, synthesis and development of drugs which are bio-active molecules. Synthesis and development is only the part of drug discovery, but the efficacy of that drug and target to the particular site is important for the treatment of diseases like cancer, Cardiovascular, pulmonary diseases, and these involve many factors. Medical research became prominent and found treatment even for most of the lethal diseases. Scientific community with the drug discovery was able to synthesize: (a) new drugs to cure Malaria by cutting down the supply of proteins to the malarial parasite (b) Discovery of Imatinib, an eminent drug paved the way for the treatment of cancer. Drugs or chemical compounds prepared based on new strategies by finding the impact of the cells on proteins, enzymes and there was a breakthrough in combating different disease associated with heart, lung, and every part of the human body.
For this special issue Journal expects mostly research, review, short communication, survey reports and current communications in the field as letters.
