Anticancer Drugs Sourced from Marine Life

  • Book

  • August 2024
  • Bentham Science Publishers Ltd
  • ID: 5993917
This inter-disciplinary volume provides information on anticancer medicines derived from marine organisms. Eight edited reviews extensively list the variety of organisms including marine plants, sponges, cnidarians and fish. Emphasis is placed on the source of the compounds, their structure and mechanism of action. Anticancer peptides from sponges are covered in a dedicated chapter. The specific biology and ecology of marine organisms yielding these anticancer compounds is also highlighted where appropriate. All chapters include detailed references for advanced readers.

This volume is a standard text-cum-reference for teachers, students and researchers of various disciplines such as Biomedical Sciences, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Marine Biology, and Fisheries Science, it also serves as a guide to marine anticancer compounds for professionals in the pharmaceutical industry who are involved in the development of new marine-derived anticancer drugs.

Readership:

Academics and scholars in Biomedical Sciences, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Marine Biology, and Fisheries Science; professionals in the pharmaceutical industry who are involved in the development of new marine-derived anticancer drugs.
