Recent update on the anti-infective potential of β-carboline analogs

β-Carboline, a naturally occurring indole alkaloid, holds a momentous spot in the field of medicinal chemistry due to its myriad of pharmacological actions like anticancer, antiviral, antibacte-rial, antifungal, antileishmanial, antimalarial, neuropharmacological, anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombot...
