Exploration of the effect and mechanism of indirubin on infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus based on network pharmacology [PDF]

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Our team’s previous research indicates that infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV) induces mitochondrial damage in bovine kidney cells (MDBK). Indirubin, a bisindole alkaloid, can alleviate mitochondrial damage.

Combined Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Analysis Reveals an Ethylene-Activated Regulatory Model on Monoterpenoid Indole Alkaloid Biosynthesis in Catharanthus roseus. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J
ABSTRACT Catharanthus roseus contains nearly 200 bioactive monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) that are effective in treating cancer and other diseases. Ethylene plays a significant role in enhancing MIA biosynthesis, and we have found that it greatly induces the accumulation of anhydrovinblastine.

Oxidative Rearrangements of the Alkaloid Intermediate Geissoschizine. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
19E‐geissoschizine is a key precursor in the biosynthesis of monoterpene indole alkaloids such as strychnine, ibogaine, and vinblastine. Using enzymatic assays and gene silencing, three CYPs were identified from C. roseus that oxidize this compound to four alkaloid scaffolds: strychnos, sarpagan, akuammiline, and mavacurane. Mutational analysis reveals

Bisindole alkaloids from Voacanga grandifolia leaves

Journal of Natural Medicines, 2021
Two new bisindole alkaloids, 12'-O-demethyl-vobtusine-5-lactam and isovobtusine-N-oxide (1 and 2), were isolated from the leaves of Voacanga grandifolia, together with two known bisindole alkaloids. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR data. 1 and 2 showed potent antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 and very
