Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Phytochemicals are natural compounds produced by many kinds of plants, and function to support them in thriving with or in thwarting predators or pathogens. It is reported that phytochemicals can have several potentially beneficial effects on human health, serving as, e.g., anti-cancer, anti-immune response, anti-bacteria, and antioxidant products. In the past ten years, phytochemicals have been widely investigated to develop effective medicine for the treatment of various diseases through the regulation of reactive oxygen species in specific types of cells, with high efficacy and few side effects.
In this Special Issue, we invite manuscripts (reviews and articles) on the regulation of cell fate through the generation of reactive oxygen species by the novel phytochemicals, leading to the therapeutic option for caring for that specific disease in the human body.
