The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Tabernaemontana catharinensis: A Source of Indole Alkaloids With Potential Activity as Chemotherapeutic Agents

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the antitumor activity of fractions rich in indole alkaloids extracted from the leaves of the species Tabernaemontana catharinensis. The chemical composition was analyzed using high‐resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), which identified nine known indole alkaloids, including voacangine, voacangine hydroxyindolenine,

Modulatory Effects of Cirsimarin on Lung Cancer A549 Cells Migration in 2D and 3D Cultures Involves Transcriptional Regulation of Metalloproteinases

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
In 2D culture, the cirsimarin (i) decreased cell viability in both assays, (ii) induced apoptosis, (iii) reduced clonogenicity, (iv) prevented cell migration, (v) induced DNA damage, and (vi) negatively modulated gene expression. In the 3D model, reductions in spheroid viability, area, and cell migration were also observed.

A cell‐type‐specific regulon controlling monoterpene indole alkaloid biosynthesis with feedback and feedforward activation loops

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 945-960, January 2026.
Summary Monoterpene indole alkaloids (MIA) are a diverse class of plant natural products produced by a subset of lineages within the Asterid clade of eudicots. The diversity of MIAs provides a unique opportunity to study not only the evolution of biosynthetic genes but also their regulation.
