    Computational Approaches in Drug Discovery, Development and Systems Pharmacology
    (Elsevier, 2023-02-26) Gautam, Rupesh Kumar; Kamal, Mohammad Amjad; Mittal, Pooja
    Computational Approaches in Drug Discovery, Development and Systems Pharmacology provides detailed information on the use of computers in advancing pharmacology. Drug discovery and development is an expensive and time-consuming practice, and computer-assisted drug design (CADD) approaches are increasing in popularity in the pharmaceutical industry to accelerate the process. With the help of CADD, scientists can focus on the most capable compounds so that they can minimize the synthetic and biological testing pains. This book examines success stories of CADD in drug discovery, drug development and role of CADD in system pharmacology, additionally including a focus on the role of artificial intelligence (AI) and deep machine learning in pharmacology. Computational Approaches in Drug Discovery, Development and Systems Pharmacology will be useful to researchers and academics working in the area of CADD, pharmacology and Bioinformatics."

    Novel Approaches for the Application of Herbs for Skin Care
    (Bentham Science Publishers Ltd., 2023) Chopra, Hitesh; Tsagkaris, Christos; Matthews, Lauren; Gautam, Rupesh Kumar; Kamal, Mohammad Amjad
    Skin is the largest non-parenchymal organ of the human body. It constitutes a natural barrier against pathogens and harmful environmental exposures and contributes to the human body's homeostasis. Conditions affecting the skin range from infections and injury to autoimmune diseases and cancer. Herbs have been used to treat dermatological conditions for a long time. Traditional approaches to delivering herbs to the skin include ointments, gels, creams, and lotions. However, poor lipophilicity or hydrophilicity in most herbal preparations results in limited bioavailability and poor penetration, restricting their effectiveness. Nanotechnology-based approaches have major potential, showing more promising results in enhancing transdermal penetration than traditional approaches. This review article summarizes such advances and sheds light on future directions in using nanotechnology-based strategies.
