In the present era, a significant increase in neurological disorders has been observed throughout the globe due to Covid-19 pandemic or as co-morbidities of post Covid-19 complications. The partial or complete lockdown situations in the last two years have confined everyone in their respective territories, which has led to the development of neurological complications like anxiety, depression, stress and psychological disturbances in the general public, especially in children. The synthetic drugs and pharmacological interventions that are currently available for the treatment of neurological disorders are associated with severe adverse effects. The management of such disorders with natural products seems to be a viable approach.
It is the hour of need to deal with the increasing neurological disorders in developing, as well as developed, countries with safer and therapeutically efficacious medicines. This goal can be achieved with advanced clinical and translational research, combined with bioinformatic tools, on traditionally used and medicinally potential natural products (herbal drugs). Researchers and clinicians working in the field of Natural Products / Pharmacology are invited to contribute their valuable research in this Research Topic article collection. Bioactive constituents or chemo-profile of bioactive extract / fraction defining pharmacologically active molecules should be included in the manuscript.
1. Research articles on pre-clinical and clinical studies of Natural Products / Traditional Plants in neurological disorders (Anxiety, stress, Depression, Epilepsy, Dementia, Alzheimer, etc.).
2. Case studies / clinical reports emphasizing role of natural products in neurological disorders.
3. Review articles focusing on 'Neuropharmacological Studies of Natural Products' covering following aspects:
(i) Clinical and translational research with bioinformatic tools,
(ii) SAR and molecular docking studies,
(iii) Mechanistic Insights.
