Ein Kapitel aus dem Buch Phytochemicals in Medicinal Plants

Abstract

Cancer, as numerous diseases, can start from each organ including the development of abnormal and uncontrolled cells in human body. On the other hand, human immunoviros (HIV) is caused by virus and makes humans susceptible to infection which is then acquired to immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). Every year many people are diagnosed and around 1 million people die due to both diseases. Thus, for treatment, natural products especially from plants were produced from related medicinal compounds used for the preparation of ideal and medicinal anticancer and anti-HIV agents like Taxol, Vinblastine, Podophyllotoxin, Betulinic acid, Camptothecin, and Vincristine. For the research of drugs from medicinal plants, biological, botanical, phytochemical, and molecular techniques were involved. Medicinal plants provide new and important medicinal eminent for various pharmacological treatment of cancer and HIV/AIDS.
