India is the fourth largest generic pharmaceutical market in the world. Indian pharmaceutical industries are very well established in today’s world and continuously producing a variety of products, which are useful in the treatment of various diseases and grabbing the market segments. India has a large number of resources to contribute vitality in the research and manufacturing process, and due to its large patient population & genetic pool, now it has become a region for cost-effective and speedy Clinical Trials (CTs) for Investigational New Drugs (INDs). Due to having these significant advantages, India now able to contract multinational pharmaceutical companies (MNPCs) to outsource operations in the fields of drug discovery and also able contract manufacturing and clinical research (CR) to organizations in India. On the other hand, understanding the regulatory scenario is not easy because the rapid and ongoing changes and the burden on the regulatory bodies to ensure a healthy supply of quality drugs at affordable prices to the population. The Indian pharmaceutical industry has shown impressive growth...

Currently, the knowledge on the oncogenic behaviour exhibited by microbial agents is the result of long and laborious studies conducted over the years. It started with the liver fluke infection associated with bile duct carcinoma and bilharziasis with bladder cancer. Following this, multiple pathogens got implicated in carcinogenesis, including bacteria, many viruses, and even fungi. For some of these infections, the cancer-causal association has confirmatory evidence, but the data is limited for others. There is a need to understand the pathogenesis of these infectious cancers and the oncogenic mechanism of newly implicated infectious agents being added to the list of infectious cancer. Cancers arising out of infections are theoretically preventable either by vaccination or early treatment and careful drafting of public health policies can help to reduce the cancer burden. The concept of herd immunity in cancer prevention is new and emerging, but as it has an established role in preventing some infectious diseases, the same advantage can be conferred in the prevention of infectious cancers. Cancer research has...

The aim of the present investigation was a systemic review of Trachyspermum ammi L. (Ajwain) coming from the family Apiaceae and its medicinal significance. The seeds of ajwain include approximate three-5% crucial brownish oil, and this species additionally incorporate thymol as the principal chemical constituent at the side of a few different important constituents like β-pinene, α-terpinene, α-pinene, p-cymene, γ-terpinene, and many others. Since ajwain possesses various phytoconstituents, it shows numerous pharmacological and biological properties which have been described. Based on the literature survey, we have focused light upon its pharmacological importance and its future perspective. The present investigation revealed information like its pharmacognostic profile, chemical composition, and its biological activity. These can help a researcher in developing novel entities in the...

Phytoconstituents like flavonoids, tannins, glycosides, alkaloids and terpenoids have medicinal values. In recent years herbal medicines are developed and used to treat almost all diseases with lesser or no side effects. But the plant constituents having low half-life, poor bioavailability and stability problems because of their high particle size and high aqueous solubility. Phytosomes are the carriers for the novel drug delivery system. It consists of two words “phyto” means “plant” and “some” means “cell-like”. They are used to improve the absorption, systemic bio-availability and prolongs their release by complexing with the phospholipids. It forms a weak hydrogen bond between polar heads while non-polar tail of phospholipids encloses over complex thereby imparts lipophilic character to herbal extracts. Hence increases the absorption of plant constituents than the conventional herbal extract. The current review describes the overview of phytosomes and its properties, method of preparations, evaluations of novel technologies and importance of...
