SGLT2i in heart failure: Cardiorenal mechanisms, clinical evidence and translational perspectives
SGLT2 inhibitors improve heart failure outcomes through integrated cardiorenal mechanisms. In the kidney, they reduce glucose and sodium reabsorption, promoting natriuresis, osmotic diuresis and renal protection. In the heart, they enhance myocardial energetics, reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, fibrosis and adverse remodelling, resulting in fewer

Natural Alkaloids as Antimicrobial Agents: Mechanisms, Potentials and Challenges
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant global health threat, with multidrug-resistant pathogens undermining the effectiveness of conventional antibiotics. Natural alkaloids, a diverse group of nitrogen-containing compounds mainly derived from

Host-Guest Chemistry of Alkaloids
Binding of alkaloids by different hosts (native and modified cyclodextrins, cucurbiturils, calixarenes, and metal complexes of porphyrin and Salphen-type ligands), as well as receptor properties of alkaloid based hosts are reviewed.

Grandine A, a New Proaporphine Alkaloid from the Bark of Phoebe grandis
The stem bark of Phoebe grandis afforded one new oxoproaporphine; (–)-grandine A (1), along with six known isoquinoline alkaloids: (–)-8,9-dihydrolinearisine (2), boldine, norboldine, lauformine, scortechiniine A and scortechiniine B. In addition to that

ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are recognized as prolific sources of structurally diverse secondary metabolites with significant pharmaceutical potential. In the present study, endophytic fungi were isolated from healthy tissues of Atalantia racemosa (Rutaceae), an ethnomedicinal plant traditionally used for respiratory disorders and blood purification.

The splicing of phenoxypyridine moieties to isoquinolin‐3‐carboxylic acid enhanced its biological activity against plant pathogenic fungi. Among target compounds, compound X6 demonstrated significant antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea in vitro and in vivo assays, Molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, as well as SDH enzyme assay ...

Two new asperfurans (1 and 2) and 23 known compounds from marine Aspergillus flavus were characterized by NMR, HRESIMS, DP4+, and ECD. Asperfuran (3) potently inhibited RSL3‐induced ferroptosis (EC50 = 0.81 µM). ABSTRACT Marine microorganisms represent a prolific reservoir of chemically diverse natural products endowed with considerable therapeutic ...
