Evolutionary Diversity as a Source for Anticancer Molecules discusses evolutionary diversity as source for anticancer agents derived from bacteria, algae, bryophytes, pteridophytes, and gymnosperms. The book goes over the isolation of anticancer agents and the technologyenabled screening process used to develop anticancer drugs. The book also includes discussion of the nutraceuticals and natural productsderived from invertebrates that can be used as part of cancer treatment.

Evolutionary Diversity as a Source for Anticancer Molecules also deals with some of the current challenges in the prevention of cancer as well as the side effects of conventional drugs used for cancer patients.This book is a valuable resource for cancer researchers, oncologists, biotechnologists, pharmacologists, and any member of the biomedicalfield interested in understanding more about natural products with anticancer potential.

Discusses the application of natural products in place of conventional drugs to minimize the side effects in cancer treatment Explains the relation between evolutionary mechanisms and climate change for production of secondary metabolites

Genome Damage: Repair and Adaptation Across Life explores the significance of nucleic acid damage from environmental pollutants, UV radiation, and other stressors that can lead to mutations, genetic instability, and various diseases, including cancer. This book delves into the mechanisms of DNA and RNA repair, which are crucial for maintaining cellular health and enabling evolutionary adaptations. It examines these intricate processes across microbes, plants, and animals, providing a comprehensive understanding of how genetic materials are regulated and repaired under diverse environmental conditions.Other sections cover a wide range of topics, including advanced molecular mechanisms of nucleotide repair, UV-induced damage, apoptosis cell death and autophagy, genetic instability in crops, and the role of post-translational modifications in DNA repair, the detection and quantification of DNA damage, the impact of synthetic chemicals and climate change on nucleic acids, and the therapeutic significance of DNA repair mechanisms. The book closes with a look towards future perspectives.Covers nucleic acid damage and repair mechanisms across a range of organismsProvides insights into environmental adaptability and the evolutionary significance of genetic mutationsDiscusses detection and prevention strategies for DNA damageOffers therapeutic applications for genetic disorders, including cancer and aging-related diseases

Phycobiliproteins are water soluble, brilliantly colored accessory light-harvesting macromolecules organized in a supramolecular complexes on photosynthetic apparatus in cyanobacteria, red algae and cryptomonads. The objective of this book is to provide state of the art knowledge and highlight the recent developments and future biotechnological and biomedical applications of phycobiliproteins. This book will be highly useful for students, researchers, professionals and experts in the field of Life Sciences and Biomedical Sciences as well as industries for potential applications of phycobiliproteins.

This book illustrates the role of photoprotective and radioprotective metabolites from natural sources. Various classes of radioprotective metabolites derived from cyanobacteria, algae, fungi, bryophytes, pteridophytes, gymnosperms, and higher plants have been explained to reinforce the current knowledge in this field. In addition, the book elucidates the potential applications of these metabolites in pharmaceutics, cosmetics, and biomedical sciences that will help develop commercial products in modern anti-radiation therapeutics.  Topics such as stress tolerance environmental strategies, evolutionary tendency, and biosynthetic route of radioprotective compounds for cost-effective large-scale industrial production of the metabolites are also covered in the book. This book will add to the understanding of radioprotective mechanisms and curative measures for various deleterious diseases leading to cancer development. This volume also offers the latest insights into current and upcoming issues that arise from solar and atomic radiations and their amelioration by inherent radioprotective mechanisms of green plants.  This book benefits readers from academia, industry, colleges, and research students to better understand the impacts of various radiations and the development of radioprotective green compounds.
