Autoimmune Disorders and Secondary Plant Metabolites (Part 1)

Introduction

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.
