Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on research into the therapeutic potential of natural products, particularly plant-derived compounds and extracts, for a range of human diseases and conditions. Studies investigate the mechanisms of action of these natural compounds, often involving molecular pathways, cellular processes, and their effects on biological systems. The scope includes applications in cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory conditions, metabolic disorders, and organ-specific injuries, with an emphasis on their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cell death-modulating properties.
