Using well-documented studies over the past decade, this timely monograph demonstrates the current importance and future potential of natural products as starting points for the development of new drugs with improved properties over their progenitors. The examples are chosen so as to represent a wide range of natural products with therapeutic relevance among others, as anticancer agents, antimicrobials, antifungals, antisense nucleosides, antidiabetics, and analgesics UR - http://dspace.fue.edu.eg:8080/jspui/bitstream/123456789/217/1/Natural%20products%20in%20medicinal%20chemistry.pdf UR - http://repository.fue.edu.eg/xmlui/handle/123456789/1792 ER -
