Chemistry and Molecular Aspects of Drug Design and Action

By E.A. Rekka

Drawn from the work of world-renowned pharmacochemistry scientists, this book explores research that defines the emergence of rational drug design. Offering insight from their own specialized subjects, these pioneers highlight the variety of approaches being employed in this field, including those that start by considering either molecular mechanisms of drug action, or the metabolizing enzyme action occurring in the structure of a drug molecule. Another approach they explore is one that starts from the pathobiochemistry and pathophysiology of target diseases. Furthermore, the book also considers drug development that makes use of already developed compounds stored in data banks.
