Product details

The book "Catharanthus roseus" offers a comprehensive study of the production of indole alkaloids in the significant medicinal plant Catharanthus roseus, also known as periwinkle. This plant is renowned for its medicinal properties, particularly the anticancer agents vinblastine and vincristine, which are found in its leaves and inhibit the growth of cancer cells. The book discusses the mechanisms by which these alkaloids act and highlights the importance of vinblastine in the treatment of childhood leukemia and vincristine in Hodgkin's disease. Given the global demand for these valuable compounds, the work also addresses the large-scale production of alkaloids through plant cell cultures. It is aimed at researchers, educators, ethnobotanists, pharmacologists, and herbal growers interested in this significant medicinal plant.
