Abstract

The increasing proliferation of diseases, with the associated drug resistance, has underscored the need for new drug development. Plant-derived natural products possess diverse pharmacological activities and consequently are an attractive resource for the development of advanced chemotherapeutics to treat a wide range of disease conditions, including microbial infections. Jute leaves rich with active diterpenoids for the potential discovery of new drugs and boost up the immune system.
