“…Polar microorganisms could represent an answer to the rising needs of novel and effective bioactive compounds for contrasting human diseases, and protecting human health and the environment [108]. In the coming decades, chemists and biologists will be required to closely collaborate with each other by cross-disciplinary interactions to provide innovative approaches and promising candidates within Polar bioprospecting activities.…”

“…In the coming decades, chemists and biologists will be required to closely collaborate with each other by cross-disciplinary interactions to provide innovative approaches and promising candidates within Polar bioprospecting activities. In addition to the screening and characterization of compounds, a further effort should also be made to address mechanisms driving their activities [108]. Finally, as it is well known, bioprospecting is regulated by various international law regimes worldwide.…”

“…In order to survive in the cold, extreme and inhospitable environment conditions, polar organisms produce an array of unique metabolites which confer an advantage and offers protection from predation. Out of all the natural products reported from polar organisms, 38% of them showed bioactivity of pharmaceutical relevance" [5]. This illustrates the tremendous potential of the polar organisms as a source of new therapeutic agents for infectious and lifestyle associated diseases.…”

“…Adaptation to extreme Arctic climatic conditions can be increased by changing a diet and implementing functional food products based on the Arctic bioresources (plant and animal raw materials). They have a huge value in pharmaceuticals industry as "molecules or templates for discovery or further development of new drugs" [5]. Recent genetic based studies showed that "the diversity of the polar region is much more than previously predicted.…”
