Using modern data-mining software, it presents structures of acridines with nucleic acids and proteins and compares them with the native structures. Furthermore, the book presents modern methods of acridine synthesis, comparing them with the most useful conventional methods. Acridines interact with both nucleic acids and proteins, and due to their direct interactions with various enzymes, they can be suitable for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation, immunological disorders, and protozoal diseases. The characteristic spectral properties of acridines can  be employed in labeling proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and even cells and their compartments. Moreover, they can be applied in photodynamic therapy.Progress in Drug Research,0071-786X ;72Medicinal chemistryNeurochemistryPharmacologyProteins Bioorganic chemistryNucleic acidsMedicinal Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C28000Neurochemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B18010Pharmacology/Toxicologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21007Protein-Ligand Interactionshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14060Bioorganic Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C19010Nucleic Acid Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14011Medicinal chemistry.Neurochemistry.Pharmacology.Proteins .Bioorganic chemistry.Nucleic acids.Medicinal Chemistry.Neurochemistry.Pharmacology/Toxicology.Protein-Ligand Interactions.Bioorganic Chemistry.Nucleic Acid Chemistry.547.593Ježek Janauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut875487Hlaváček Janauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autŠebestík Jaroslavauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910253940703321Biomedical Applications of Acridines1954756UNINA
