The reference publication Bioprospecting of Natural Pigments in Human Health, 1st Edition, presents a detailed examination of the therapeutic potential of natural pigments derived from plants, algae, and microorganisms. Written for academic researchers and graduate students in natural product research, the book establishes the biological mechanisms through which these natural compounds influence human health.
The coverage synthesizes evidence regarding phytopigments used in breast cancer tumor prevention, protective agents against respiratory disorders, and therapeutic options for aging-associated disorders. It further addresses dietary pigments utilized in cancer chemoprevention and chemotherapy, alongside the antimicrobial characteristics of microbial pigments.
The work features dedicated content explaining chemical structure and targeted therapeutic pathways across different cell lines. This systematic organization provides targeted reference value for researchers working across pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and natural products pharmacology disciplines.
