Advances in Anticancer Drugs Based on Phytocompounds with Antioxidant Properties—2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Given the growing interest in identifying natural compounds with antioxidant and/or anticancer capacity, research on the characterization and establishment of their biological/therapeutic potential constitutes arguments for issuing a new edition of the Special Issue entitled "Advances in Anticancer Drugs Based on Phytocompounds with Antioxidant Properties—2nd Edition".

The second edition will both present updated research and approach this field from new perspectives. The emphasis will be on the response mechanisms of normal vs. tumor cells to the action of phytocompounds with potential for use in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries.

Plant compounds can be used in single administration or in combination with synthetic drugs, but can also form the basis of targeted therapies through the use of specific transfer vectors.

This Special Issue will be focused on the isolation and complex characterization of phytochemicals with antioxidant and antitumor activity, having a potential supportive role in anticancer therapies.
