Why is it important?

Parkinson's disease presents a significant medical challenge, and current therapies have limitations. Exploring natural products as potential treatments using computational methods offers a promising avenue for the development of new and effective drugs. This approach may lead to the discovery of novel therapeutic options with improved efficacy and reduced side effects for Parkinson's disease.

Perspectives

The integration of computational techniques in drug discovery opens up new possibilities for identifying effective treatments for complex diseases like Parkinson's. By leveraging the power of advanced computational methods, this research provides insights into the potential of natural products as multi-target-directed drugs, offering hope for improved therapeutic interventions in Parkinson's disease.
