Autoimmune Disorders and Secondary Plant Metabolites (Part 1)

by M. S. Ashawat, Aditi Kaushik (ed.), Akash Jain (ed.), Jasmine Chaudhary (ed.), Manish Kaushik (ed.) Autoimmune Disorders and Secondary Plant Metabolites provides a crisp overview of immune system dysfunction, then examines the therapeutic potential of medicinal plants in managing major autoimmune and immune-related disorders such as Type 1 Diabetes, Multiple Sclerosis, Psoriasis, Systemic Lupus, Vitiligo, and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis. Each chapter identifies disease-specific phytochemicals, explains mechanisms of action, and highlights emerging plant-based pharmacotherapy strategies, while linking traditional pharmacology with modern molecular and diagnostic advances. Key Features: - Provides disease-wise phytochemical insights. - Explains immunomodulatory mechanisms using plant bioactive compounds. - Bridges traditional and molecular pharmacology concepts. - Presents evidence through simplified tables and visuals for comparison.
