Chemical agents future research needs

Another unexpected discovery was that of neurotrophic agents belonging to two distinct chemical series fellutamide A (15), a peptide, and epolactaene (142), a lactame of uncertain biosynthetic origin. These substances, for which only the in vitro activity has been reported, reflect a new area of interest in pharmaceutical research. Their activity will need to be compared with existing and/or future findings in this field.
