Preclinical Evaluation of Marine Natural Products for Neuroscience Drug Discovery
Offered By: Labroots via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the potential of marine natural products in neuroscience drug discovery through this 30-minute webinar presented by Dr. Marsha Pierce, assistant professor at Midwestern University. Delve into the world of marine-derived polycyclic alkaloids, particularly manzamines, and their unique biological properties. Learn about the anti-inflammatory and neuritogenic potential of these compounds isolated from marine sponges. Gain insights into Dr. Pierce's research on the effects of marine natural products on cellular signaling, neurite outgrowth, and post-stroke recovery. Discover the process of preclinical evaluation and the promising role of marine-derived compounds in developing new treatments for neurological disorders.
