Xerophytic Lichens from Gypsiferous Outcrops of Arid Areas of Andalusia as a Source of Anti-Phytopathogenic Depsides

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
In a survey to evaluate the potential of lichens associated with gypsum areas as sources of new antifungal metabolites, six species of lichens were collected in the gypsum outcrops of the Sorbas Desert (Diploschistes ocellatus and Seirophora lacunosa ...

Synthesized Depside Molecules Suppress the Progression of Colorectal Cancer by Binding VDAC1/PHB/MMP9 Being at the Crossroads of Stemness, Motility, Apoptosis, and Metabolism

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2025.
This study suggests that newly synthesized depside compounds suppress the progression of colorectal cancer by directly targeting VDAC1/PHB/MMP9. Especially, SB4 demonstrated significant bioavailability and successfully suppressed the tumor growth. ABSTRACT Lichen secondary metabolites have shown potential in cancer therapy, but strategies to enhance ...

A Biosynthetic and Taxonomic Atlas of the Global Lichen Holobiont

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2025.
This analysis of 794 publicly available lichen shotgun metagenomic datasets, covering 467 unique lichen species from 34 countries, revealed that lichens are complex holobionts. They harbour a variety of fungal, algal, and bacterial players with remarkable biosynthetic capabilities.

Evernic Acid: A Low‐Toxic and Selective Alternative to Chemotherapeutic Agents in the Treatment of Ovarian Cancer

open access: yesArchiv der Pharmazie, Volume 358, Issue 5, May 2025.
The potential therapeutic effects of evernic acid (EA) were investigated using functional in vitro assays and the evaluation of gene and protein expression levels on ovarian cancer cell lines. EA demonstrated antiproliferative effects on ovarian cancer cells, primarily through the activation of apoptosis at both cellular and molecular levels.
