Plectranthus-derived Abietanes as Protein Kinase C-δ Activators: In Silico Design, Human Serum Albumin Interaction, and Stability Evaluation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cancer remains a major global health challenge. Among protein kinases (PKCs), PKC‐δ acts as a tumor suppressor in colon cancer and represents a valuable therapeutic target. Human serum albumin (HSA) is gaining attention as an efficient drug carrier, while Plectranthus spp. offers a rich source of bioactive compounds.

Electrochemical oxidation of abietanes
Pine trees are coniferous, from which we can extract wood, raw tall oil, wood gum, and gum. Through the distillation of gum, we can acquire turpentine and colophony. Colophony is a complex mixture of neutral terpenes and acidic diterpenes, including abietanes, which are tricyclic diterpenoids to which abietic acid (AA) and dehydroabietic acid (DHA ...

Abietic Acid Enhances the Sedative Activity of Diazepam: In vivo Approach along with Receptor Binding Affinity and Molecular Interaction with the GABAergic System. [PDF]
Abietic acid (AA) reveals potent sedative potential by expressing fast sleeping onset and increased sleeping duration compare to the control group in thiopental sodium induced sleeping mice. The compound also exhibited notable binding affinity (–7.9 kcal/mol) toward GABAA receptors.

Antibacterial profiling of abietane-type diterpenoids [PDF]
Abietic and dehydroabietic acid are interesting diterpenes with a highly diverse repertoire of associated bioactivities. They have, among others, shown antibacterial and antifungal activity, potentially valuable in the struggle against the increasing antimicrobial resistance and imminent antibiotic shortage.
