About the Journal

Natural Products and Translational Medicine (NPTM) is an international, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing research at the interface of natural products, drug discovery, experimental therapeutics, and translational medicine.

The journal provides a multidisciplinary platform for translating discoveries from plants, marine organisms, microorganisms, fungi, and other biological sources into scientifically validated approaches with potential applications in human health.

NPTM particularly encourages studies that progress beyond preliminary biological observations by establishing relationships among chemical composition, bioactive molecules, molecular targets, mechanisms of action, pharmacological effects, safety, and therapeutic relevance.

The scientific philosophy of the journal is represented by the continuum:

Natural Source → Bioactive Molecule → Molecular Target → Mechanism → Therapeutic Validation → Translation.

Aim

NPTM aims to advance the discovery, scientific validation, and translation of natural products and naturally inspired molecules into potential therapeutic interventions.

The journal seeks to bridge natural-product sciences with medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, computational sciences, pharmaceutical sciences, preclinical research, and clinical medicine.
