Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Pseudo‐Natural Products Inspired by Aryloctahydroindole Alkaloids [PDF]
Mesembrine alkaloid pseudo‐natural products were synthesized employing a microwave‐assisted Diels–Alder reaction as a key step. Morphological profiling by cell painting revealed compound‐topology‐dependent mitochondrial fragmentation or inhibition of respiration.

Organ‐Dependent Antioxidant, Redox‐Modulating, and Lifespan Effects of Galanthus elwesii Extracts in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Aerial (leaves and flowers) and belowground (bulbs and roots) parts of Galanthus elwesii were extracted using water, 70% ethanol, and 80% methanol. Phytochemical analyses revealed organ‐ and solvent‐dependent variations in total phenolic and flavonoid contents, which were associated with differences in in vitro antioxidant activity determined by DPPH ...
