    Abstract Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of misfolded α-synuclein fibrils, leading to the formation of Lewy bodies. Currently, no effective treatment exists to halt the progression of the disease. Only symptomatic relief and dopamine replacement therapy are available, but they are unable to halt the underlying disease process. Therefore, there is an urgent need for targeted drugs that can effectively stop the progression of Parkinson's disease by specifically targeting the aggregation and clearance of α-synuclein through various mechanisms. In this context, natural products have emerged as a promising source of potential therapeutic agents. A significant number of drugs used in the treatment of central nervous system diseases are either natural products or derived from them. In this review, we focus on natural products discovered from 2015 onwards that target the aggregation and/or clearance of α-synuclein using diverse approaches. By exploring these natural compounds, we aim to shed light on their potential as therapeutic interventions for Parkinson's disease.

    Abstract A silver-catalyzed decarboxylative cyclization process has been developed for the synthesis of substituted pyrazoles from the readily available 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes and α-keto acids. Under the optimized conditions, a series of multisubstituted pyrazoles were well prepared in moderate to good yields. In addition, the synthetic utility of this protocol has been demonstrated by synthesizing analogs of FDA approved drugs such as anti-inflammatory drug, lonazolac and antiobesity drug, rimonabant.

    Abstract DNA topoisomerase 1 (Topo 1) is a pivotal player in various DNA processes, including replication, repair, and transcription. It serves as a target for anticancer drugs like camptothecin and its derivatives (Topotecan and SN-38/Irinotecan). However, the emergence of drug resistance and the associated adverse effects, such as alopecia, anemia, dyspnea, fever, chills, and painful or difficult urination, pose significant challenges in Topo 1-targeted therapy, necessitating urgent attention. Human DNA Ligase 1 (hLig I), recognized primarily for its role in DNA replication and repair of DNA breaks, intriguingly exhibits a DNA relaxation activity akin to Topo 1. This raised the hypothesis that hLig I might compensate for Topo 1 inhibition, contributing to resistance against Topo 1 inhibitors. To explore this hypothesis, we assessed the efficacy of hLig I inhibition alone and in combination with Topo 1 in cancer cells. As anticipated, the overexpression of hLig I was observed after Topo 1 inhibition in colorectal cancer cells, affirming our hypothesis. Previously identified as an inhibitor of hLig I's DNA relaxation activity, compound 27 (C 27), when combined with Topotecan, demonstrated a synergistic antiproliferative effect on colorectal cancer cells. Notably, cells with downregulated hLig I (

    Abstract Obesity-related metabolic disorders are increasing at an alarming rate worldwide. The FDA has approved many molecules for weight loss therapy; most of them act on the gut level by inhibiting lipid uptake or on the central nervous system by controlling appetite. Limitations and drawbacks have propelled the search for new pharmacophores exhibiting favourable metabolic alteration at adipocytes, and natural products have always been there to prove their worth. In our efforts, we have identified 16-hydroxy-ent-halima-5(10),13-dien-15,16-olide (PLH), a halimane diterpene isolated from Polyalthia longifolia, demonstrating anti-adipogenic and anti-dyslipidemic activity. It inhibited adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocyte and C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cell lines. Furthermore, it decreased set of adipogenic markers at transcript and protein levels. Cell cycle studies indicated that PLH halts the mitotic clonal expansion. Mechanistic studies shows that PLH activate Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway to inhibit the adipogenesis. The study suggested that PLH inhibited adipogenesis during the early phase of differentiation by targeting mitotic clonal expansion and arresting the cell cycle in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. It improved the dyslipidemic condition in HFD-fed hamsters by decreasing the body weight, fat mass, eWAT weight and improving the serum lipid profile. Overall, PLH has been found as a potential drug candidate and a pharmacophore for combating metabolic disorders including obesity and dyslipidemia.

    Abstract Glucocorticoid induced osteoporosis (GIOP) is the second most leading cause of osteoporosis. We have identified a compound, a benzofuran pyran hybrid compound 4e that has osteogenic potential and we wanted to assess its efficacy in GIOP in male mice. We assessed the effect of dexamethasone and compound 4e on primary osteoblasts using various cell based and immunofluorescence assays. For in vivo studies we administered methylprednisolone and compound 4e as a prophylactic measure in male Balb/c mice for 28 days and then evaluated the effect on bone microarchitecture by microCT, bone formation by histology along with clinically relevant bone markers. Compound 4e preserved osteoblast differentiation as evident by higher ALP positive cells and mineralization in compound treated groups. Compound 4e also increased the expression of osteogenic genes. This compound guarded β-catenin expression both in vitro and in vivo as confirmed by western blot and immunofluorescence assays. This led to the preservation of bone microarchitecture and cortical thickness at 2.5 mg kg

    Abstract The role of natural products in the drug development and discovery has been phenomenal. There has been an enormous interest in exploring all possible natural sources to identify structures exhibiting pronounced hypolipidemic activity albeit with no toxicity. The present review describes the profile of some interesting naturally occurring compounds and their derivatives as potential hypolipidemic agents. Some of the interesting natural chemotypes that can control the increased levels of plasma lipids and discussed in this review are compactin, lovastatin, gugglesterone, berberine, lupeol, phytol, polyprenol, aegeline, 4-hydroxyisoleucine, α-asarone, resveratrol, esculeoside A, swertiamarin, rutin, saucerneol B, curcumin and a clerodane diterpene.
