Ten new norterpene alkaloids, coscinoderines A–J (1–10), were isolated from the marine sponge Coscinoderma bakusi. Each coscinoderine contains a 1,2,5-trisubstituted pyridinium moiety bearing terpene unit at C-2 position. Their structures elucidated by analysis of NMR and HRMS data, absolute stereochemistry 4 with 2-methylbutyl group attached to nitrogen was determined comparison calculated measured ECD spectra. The isolation expands repertoire alkaloids sponges.

Three furan-containing scalarane sesterterpenoids (1⁻3) and a novel pyrrole-containing analog (4) were isolated from the sponge Scalarispongia species. Compound 3, reported in literature as synthetic derivative of furoscalarol 2, was for first time natural source. During separation performed using silica column presence methanol, 16-methoxy derivatives (5, 6) obtained unintended reaction 2. The products 3 4 artifact 5 showed moderate to high cytotoxicity against six human cancer cell lines,...

We describe a synthetic approach for set of fluorescent thieno[3,2-b]pyridine-5(4H)-one derivatives and their photophysical properties. These fluorophores are prepared by series reactions employing the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction regioselective aza-[3 + 3] cycloaddition 3-aminothiophenes with α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids. Our findings revealed that properties chemically tunable an appropriate choice functional group on scaffold.

Three new phenazine derivatives (1–3), along with known compounds (4–7) of saphenic acid derivatives, were isolated from a deep-sea sediment-derived yeast-like fungus Cystobasidium larynigs collected the Indian Ocean. The structures (1–3) determined by analysis spectroscopic data, semi-synthesis and comparison optical rotation values. All (1–7), except for 2, showed nitric oxide (NO) production inhibitory effect against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cells...

Abstract Background and Purpose Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to the pathogenesis maintenance of chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), a significant limitation cancer chemotherapy. Recently, stimulation mitophagy, pivotal process for mitochondrial homeostasis, has emerged as promising treatment strategy neurodegenerative diseases, but its therapeutic effect on CIPN not been explored. Here, we assessed mitophagy‐inducing activity...
