Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Anticancer is a wide range idea on research, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and recovery of cancer-related issues. Given the fact that cancer is a complex disease involving multiple pathogenetic mechanisms, the attention of researchers has been drawn to the strategies of anticancer, e.g., anticancer active substances from natural resources. To explore the active components via phytochemistry methods allows for the identification of specific targets for each individual tumor. The principle of anticancer by using the active components is based on interference with the mechanisms that regulate the life and proliferation of cancer cells, causing their death or through the effect in immune system. In recent years, more and more scientists continuously work on the development of natural active substances against cancer, which has become one of the important strategies of anticancer.
In this Special Issue, we focus attention on new anticancer agents from natural resources and related targets of different cancers. We welcome the submission of research articles on the advances in discovery, application, and development of new compounds with potency against various cancer types.
