Polyphenols as Cellular Metabolic Regulators
This special issue belongs to the section “Bioorganic Chemistry and Medicinal Chemistry“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polyphenols are a large group of natural compounds well known for their specific functions in plants. However, due to the increase of the in vitro and in vivo experimental data some of these plant-based chemicals are also regarded as potential pharmaceutical compounds providing antipathogenic, anti-inflammatory and therapeutic effects on either human or animal cardiovascular system, brain, liver or kidney.
Therefore, this Special Issue is dedicated to present the latest research on various polyphenols as bioactive compounds and metabolic regulators in plant, bacterial, fungal, animal and human cells or experimental models.
