Marine Drug Research in China

<p>The Book covers this whole field from the discovery of structurally new and bioactive natural products (including biomacromolecules) from marine macro-/micro-organisms to the pharmacodynamics pharmacokinetics metabolisms and mechanisms of marine-derived lead compounds both in vitro and in vivo along with the synthesis and/or structural optimization of marine-derived lead compounds and their structure-activity relationships. Taken together this Special Issue reprint not only provides inspiration for the discovery of marine-derived novel bioactive compounds but also sheds light on the further research and development of marine candidate drugs.</p>
