C. elegans-based screen identifies lysosome-damaging alkaloids that induce STAT3-dependent lysosomal cell death

open access: yesProtein & Cell, 2018
Lysosomes are degradation and signaling centers within the cell, and their dysfunction impairs a wide variety of cellular processes. To understand the cellular effect of lysosome damage, we screened natural small-molecule compounds that induce lysosomal ...

The Therapeutic Effects of Bioactive Compounds on Colorectal Cancer via PI3K/Akt/mTOR Signaling Pathway: A Critical Review

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 12, Page 9951-9973, December 2024.
This study discussed the therapeutic capacity of various polyphenols, terpenoids, and alkaloids on CRC via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. Each bioactive component causes various physiological processes, such as triggering free radical production, disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential, cell cycle arrest, inhibition of CRC stem cell migration ...

Biosynthesis of Arcyriaflavin F from Streptomyces venezuelae ATCC 10712

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 25, Issue 20, October 16, 2024.
We report the characterisation of the Streptomyces venezuelae ATCC 10712 arcyriaflavin F biosynthetic gene cluster. We express the gene cluster using Streptomyces coelicolor M1152 as a heterologous host, isolate the product and confirm distinct C‐5/C‐5’ indole ring hydroxylation catalysed by a regioselective flavoprotein AcfX.

The Raputindoles: Novel Cyclopentyl Bisindole Alkaloids from Raputia simulans

open access: yesOrganic Letters, 2010
A novel class of bisindole alkaloids is established by the isolation and structural determination of raputindoles A-D (1-4) from the Amazonian plant Raputia simulans Kallunki (Rutaceae). Complete spectroscopic characterization was accomplished by means of NMR spectroscopy and APCI (+) HRMS.

A Simplified Procedure for Indole Alkaloid Extraction from Catharanthus roseus Combined with a Semi-synthetic Production Process for Vinblastine

open access: yesMolecules, 2007
Dried leaves of Catharanthus roseus were extracted with aqueous acidic 0.1 M solution of HCl. Alkaloid-embonate complexes were obtained as precipitates by treating the extract with an alkaline (NaOH) solution of embonic acid (4,4-methylene-bis-3 ...
