“…The diversity of plant-derived medicinal constituents assists in a plenty of ways to enrich our research for instances in drug design and development. My current research was focused on merely to explore the free radical scavenger; however, my theoretical research through existing research article has claimed that piperine (crystal material) may exist in a lot of medicinal plants such as Piper longum, Piper officinarum rather than Piper nigrum (black pepper) also [45,46].…”

Recent studies have claimed that people are now greatly relying on synthetic drug without considering any side effect; however, all the synthetic drugs have been formulated commercially by following the invention of an authentic source of crude drug; hence, people are still directly or indirectly dependent on natural source of medicine. Recently, I have completed a research work on black pepper (Piper nigrum), and piperine (in a crystal form) was isolated as a mother bioactive compound from black pepper through a plenty of in vitro investigations. After that, I have experimented some in vitro analysis to evaluate the antioxidant power of that pure compound, and it was found that the crystal compound has strong antioxidant power. After doing some theoretical analysis, it has been identified that piperine may exist in other medicinal plants also, and many plants belonging to the same species can able to show multiple types of biological activities, which actually reflected the diversity of bioactive compounds in nature. People can benefit from different types of bioactive compounds, such as piperine, if we biosysthesize and use them commercially.

A review of the use of natural products as starting points in the search for new pharmaceuticals, covering the broad areas of “Drugs affecting the centeral nervous system, ” “Neuromuscular blocking drugs,” “Anticancer drugs,” “Marine sources,” “Antibiotics,” “Cardiovascular drugs,” “Antiasthma drugs,” and “Antiparasitic drugs.” The review covers more than 100 years of development, from “old” drugs, such as morphine and quinine, to very recent discoveries, such as conotoxin and galantamine, and includes a discussion of the attributes of natural products as leads in the drug discovery process. Between 1990 and 2000, a total of 41 drugs derived from natural products were launched on the market by major pharmaceutical companies. In the chosen examples, the process of drug development is traced from the discovery of the activity of the natural compound, through chemical modification and biological evaluation, to either success or failure as a clinical product, highlighting the very different pathways to innovation that occur in each product.
