Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation as a Translational Biomarker in Early‐Phase Anti‐Seizure Medication Development: A Randomized, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled Study in Generalized Epilepsy

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 120, Issue 3, Page 673-683, September 2026.
One‐third of epilepsy patients remain treatment‐resistant, underscoring the need for novel anti‐seizure medications (ASMs) and reliable biomarkers of central target engagement. Cortical hyperexcitability is a hallmark of epilepsy, making excitability a valuable pharmacodynamic biomarker for early‐phase drug development supporting go/no‐go decision ...

Alcoholic extracts of Russian sage (Salvia yangii) contain bioactive terpenoids with inhibitory activity against grapevine downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola)

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8159-8170, September 2026.
Alcoholic extracts from flowers, leaves, and shoots of Russian sage decreased downy mildew severity on grapevine leaf disks. Fractionation followed by metabolomic analysis revealed putative terpenoids as the main components of the active fractions. Specifically, 7‐methylrosmanol, 12‐O‐methylcarnosic acid, carnosic acid, and carnosol were identified as ...

β-Carboline Alkaloids in Soy Sauce and Inhibition of Monoamine Oxidase (MAO)

Molecules, 2023
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) oxidizes neurotransmitters and xenobiotic amines, including vasopressor and neurotoxic amines such as the MPTP neurotoxin. Its inhibitors are useful as antidepressants and neuroprotectants.

Systematic prioritization of candidate genes in camptothecin biosynthesis using multi‐omics and deep learning

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Camptothecin (CPT), a plant‐derived monoterpene indole alkaloid first identified in Camptotheca acuminata, is a drug precursor widely used for cancer chemotherapeutics. However, the full set of genes responsible for CPT biosynthesis remains unclear, hindering efforts to elucidate the complete pathway or establish biosynthetic production of CPT

The JAK1/2 Inhibitor Baricitinib Ameliorates Neuroinflammation and Symptoms in an Animal Model of Essential Tremor

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2026.
In a harmaline‐induced essential tremor mouse model, baricitinib attenuated tremor severity and affective‐like abnormalities, suppressed cerebellar TNF‐α, IL‐6, NF‐κB, and Lingo‐1 expression, and showed supportive Purkinje‐cell morphological preservation.

Anticancer α-, γ-, and δ-carboline derivatives: structures, mechanisms of action, and SARs

European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry Reports
Carboline consists of a pyridine ring fused with an indole skeleton, and it serves as a potential drug scaffold. Depending on the relative position of the pyridine N to the indole N, carbolines can be categorized into α-, β-, γ-, and δ-subfamilies.

Registered Clinical Trials of Ayahuasca and DMT: A Scoping Review

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 120, Issue 1, Page 94-108, July 2026.
Interest in ayahuasca and its main component, N,N‐Dimethyltryptamine (DMT), has currently moved from historical and experimental use into modern clinical development. Yet, current evidence is fragmented, and systematic mapping of trial methods and design choices remains limited.
