Chemical Composition of Cynanchum auriculatum Royle Ex Wight and Its Potential Role in Ameliorating Colitis. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr
In this study, the water extract of Cynanchum auriculatum Royle ex Wight root (CW) was prepared and its chemical composition was characterized using UPLC‐Q‐TOF‐MS. CW significantly alleviated DSS‐induced colitis in mice, as demonstrated by increased colon length, reduced disease activity index scores, and decreased histological damage in colon tissues.

Diterpenoid Diversity across Land Plants

Helvetica Chimica Acta, Volume 109, Issue 4, April 2026.
Here we bridge the knowledge of diterpene chemical diversity, biosynthesis, and evolution from nonvascular mosses and liverworts to that known from vascular plants. ABSTRACT The diverse array of diterpenoid natural products stems from the ease of manipulating the promiscuity of diterpene cyclases.

Acetylation‐Deacetylation‐Driven Natural Product Biosynthesis

ChemistryEurope, Volume 3, Issue 4, July 14, 2025.
This review summarizes the role of acetylation‐deacetylation in natural product biosynthesis, including acetylation followed by deacetylation after several biosynthetic steps, acetylation‐mediated rearrangement, acetylation‐triggered elimination, and the acetylation cycle as a regulatory mechanism. These processes are vital for the formation of complex

Loss of Pathogenicity and Evidence of Horizontal Gene Transfer in Colletotrichum gloeosporioides From a Medicinal Plant

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 6, June 2025.
A Colletotrichum gloeosporioides strain from Huperzia serrata lacks key pathogenicity genes CgDN3 and cap20 and has fewer pelB, pnl and pg genes. pksIII, for synthesis of huperzine A, was probably acquired by the host plant from the fungus. ABSTRACT Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is a major agricultural pathogen of crops that has also been identified ...
