Abstract

Recently, extensive researches have emphasized the fact that polyamine conjugates are becoming important in all biological and medicinal fields. In this review, we will focus our attention on natural polyamines and highlight recent progress in both fundamental mechanism studies and interests in the development and application for the therapeutic use of polyamine derivatives.
Keywords: Natural polyamines, antimicrobial activities, toxins, marine drugs, anti-infective agents, anti-cancer agents.
