Scope
The Journal of Phytomolecules & Pharmacology (JPP) is a peer-reviewed journal that brings out original research papers, reviews and short communications on the natural product & derivatives, phytoconstituents, and biological & pharmacological investigations of the extracts and products. The journal specifically invites interdisciplinary articles on phytochemistry, biotechnological approach for phytomedicines, biological and toxicological mechanisms of action, structure and bioactivity of phytochemicals (bioinformatics/computational methods).
Moreover, JPP emphasizes the fascinating insights of ethnic medicines involved in tribal communities. Therefore, we particularly prefer scientific investigations on either pharmacological or phytochemical aspects of the medicinal, aromatic, economical plants and other related botanically species, fungi, and other organisms. Manuscripts dealing with significant new findings on the plant's phytochemistry and pharmacological experiment for drug discovery will also be considered.
The journal operates a double-blind peer review policy. All articles will be made freely and permanently available in online. Articles are published as “Just Accepted Articles” as soon as possible after acceptance and in 3 issues of a volume per year.
Topics of interest in the Journal include, but are not limited to:
· New and novel bioactive molecules from medicinal plants, marine organisms and microorganisms.
· Target identification of bioactive molecules
· Mechanism of drug action and metabolism of bioactive compounds
· Structural modification and structure-activity relationship studies
· Analytical evaluation, clinical efficacy, safety and toxicological studies of herbal medicines
· Biosynthesis and biocatalysis of natural products
· Plant biotechnology-based drug discovery
· Clinical trials of the target molecules
· Plant bioinformatics
· Ethnobotany and traditional usage
· In Silico and computational technologies
· Chemometric analysis of plant constituents
· Omics and bioinformatics/computational biology approach for drug designing and discovery.
· Network pharmacology and Multi-targeting
