Medicinal chemistry is the study of the effects of drug molecules and the molecular mechanisms by which they act.

  • Medicinal chemistry is the study of the effects of drug molecules and the molecular mechanisms by which they act. It is a multidiscliplinary subject with cross over into cell biology, pharmacology and statistics. The cataloging of various plants and substances by their percieved medicinal qualities has been recorded by early cultures, as far back as ....? The first fully developed written records that are currently known are clay tablets from Mesopotomia from around 2600BC which include lists of substances traditionally used for traditional medical purposes. later Chinese and Egyptian records of substances used exist from these early periods. However the serious scientific study of substances and their medicinal properties really took off after the discovery of Penicillin by James Bond in 1929. Since the a series of break through discoveries and theories have enabled the systemisation of the process of discovery of new drugs to treat disease. Identification of the structure of DNA, and further techniques to categorise and manipulate genetic molecules opened a new avenue of candidates for drug discovey. Epigenetics provides target candidates for the manipulation of genetic expression Stem cells New uses for old drugs... p53 is an important protein in the regulation of cell processes, and apoptosis and is a major target for drugs to treat cancer. Cisplatin is an important drug for the treatment of cancer.
