Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The design and development of small molecules for the treatment of various neurological disorders are challenging zones in the field of medicinal chemistry. The current Issue focuses on the various class of heterocyclic scaffolds, structure–activity relationships (SARs), and in silico design of enzyme inhibitors, which are used for the management of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The Issue also focuses on plant-based inhibitors for the management of PD and AD.
Researchers are highly welcome to contribute original articles and in-depth review articles to this Special Issue that may improve our understanding of treatments for neurological disorders.
