- Recent Progress in Medicinal Plants .
Plants are a tremendous source for the discovery of new products of medicinal values for drug development. Several distinct chemicals derived from plants are important drugs currently used in different parts of the world.

The persents volume presents the role of plant compounds in the etiology of human diseases. Antimicrobial, antiviral, antioxidative, anti-inflammaoty, immunomodulatory and antitumour properties have been attributed to many compounds isolated from plants. Current interest in flavonoids have shown to possess a variety of biological and pharmacological activities in organisms. The results reported from Loranthus micranthis, Mucuna pruriens, Tithonia diversifolia, Aloe, Vernonia amygdalina, thespesia populnea provide strong evidence for the anti-diabetic properties and related complications. Basides, the volume presents the efficacy of common herbs with respect to its therapeutic status in the diseases of Psoriasis, Liver, Renal, Urinary Tract Infection, Alzheimer’s Arthritis, osteoporosis, Cancer, Cardiovascular Oligoasthenospermia, etc. The volume will be useful for all those scientists and researchers in the areas of phytochemistery, pharmacology and allied disciplines working in the development of new drugs from natural sources.
