Abstract
The development of xanthine oxidase and monoamine oxidase inhibitors led to important breakthroughs in the therapy of oxidative damage, hyperuricemia, gout, neurological, neuropsychiatric disorders and management of reperfusion injury. Drugs obtained from natural sources play an important role in the treatment of various pathological disorders and act as a lead compound for the discovery of new synthetic drug substances. In this review, various pharmacological effects produced by the inhibition of xanthine oxidase and monoamine oxidase through natural and synthetic flavonoids as well as anthraquinones are discussed in detail. Several methods have been designed for monitoring enzymatic activity and its inhibitor screening of bioactive natural and synthetic flavonoids and anthraquinones. In this review, all the in-vitro and other computational approaches are critically discussed which provided the clue about structure activity requirements for further precise modifications on the basic scaffold.

Chemistry Based on Natural Products for Therapeutic Purposes
The development of new pharmaceuticals for a wide range of medical conditions has long relied on the identification of promising natural products (NPs). There are over sixty percent of cancer, infectious illness, and CNS disease medications that include an NP pharmacophore, according to the Food and Drug Administration. Since NP ...read more
Current Trends in Drug Discovery Based on Artificial Intelligence and Computer-Aided Drug Design
Drug development discovery has faced several challenges over the years. In fact, the evolution of classical approaches to modern methods using computational methods, or Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD), has shown promising and essential results in any drug discovery campaign. Among these methods, molecular docking is one of the most notable ...read more

From Biodiversity to Chemical Diversity: Focus of Flavonoids
Flavonoids are the largest group of polyphenols, plant secondary metabolites arising from the essential aromatic amino acid phenylalanine (or more rarely from tyrosine) via the phenylpropanoid pathway. The flavan nucleus is the basic 15-carbon skeleton of flavonoids (C6-C3-C6), which consists of two phenyl rings (A and B) and a heterocyclic ...read more
