    Abstract Historically, compounding has been always an integral part of pharmacy. Medications were prepared by pharmacists for individual patients and compounding was the only source of drugs before mass production by pharmaceutical companies. This trend started diminishing around the middle of the 20th century due to more drugs being produced by mass manufacturers. Shortly after, clinical pharmacy was introduced and many schools of pharmacy reorganized their curricula to address that change. As a result, many compounding courses have been removed and emphasis was shifted towards clinical classes. Currently, however, compounding is on the rise again, gaining more importance mainly due to the fact that it can provide an individualized approach to patient care. This review is aimed to discuss the challenges of compounding education and the main areas of growth for compounding, as well as advantages and disadvantages of compounded medications.

    Abstract Ilimaquinone (IQ), a marine sponge metabolite, has been considered as a potential therapeutic agent for various diseases due to its broad range of biological activities. We show that IQ irreversibly inactivates Mycobacterium tuberculosis shikimate kinase (MtSK) through covalent modification of the protein. Inactivation occurred with an apparent second-order rate constant of about 60 M

    Abstract In previous studies, we have isolated several marine indole alkaloids and evaluated them in the forced swim test (FST) and locomotor activity test, revealing their potential as antidepressant and sedative drug leads. Amongst the reported metabolites to display such activities was 5-bromo-N,N-dimethyltryptamine. Owing to the importance of the judicious introduction of halogens into drug candidates, we synthesized two series built on a 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethylethanamine scaffold with different halogen substitutions. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro and in vivo antidepressant and sedative activities using the mouse forced swim and locomotor activity tests. Receptor binding studies of these compounds to serotonin (5-HT) receptors were conducted. Amongst the prepared compounds, 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethyl-2-oxoacetamide (1a), 2-(5-bromo-1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethyl-2-oxoacetamide (1d), 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethylethanamine (2a), 2-(5-chloro-1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethylethanamine (2c), 2-(5-bromo-1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethylethanamine (2d), and 2-(5-iodo-1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethylethanamine (2e) have been shown to possess significant antidepressant-like action, while compounds 2c, 2d, and 2e exhibited potent sedative activity. Compounds 2a, 2c, 2d, and 2e showed nanomolar affinities to serotonin receptors 5-HT1A and 5-HT7. The in vitro data indicates that the antidepressant action exerted by these compounds in vivo is mediated, at least in part, via interaction with serotonin receptors. The data presented here shows the valuable role that bromine plays in providing novel chemical space and electrostatic interactions. Bromine is ubiquitous in the marine environment and a common element of marine natural products.

    Abstract A novel phenyl alkene (1) was isolated from a mixture of three Florida sponges, Smenospongia aurea, Smenospongia cerebriformis, and Verongula rigida. Unlike terpenoids or amino acid derivatives, which are commonly known classes of secondary metabolites from these genera, the chemical structure of 1 showed an unprecedented linear phenyl alkene skeleton. Through comprehensive analyses of NMR and MS data, the gross structure of 1 was determined to be (E)-10-benzyl-5,7-dimethylundeca-1,5,10-trien-4-ol. The absolute configuration at C-4 was established as R by a modified Mosher’s method. Based on the relative configuration between C-4 and C-7, the absolute configuration at C-7 was assigned as S. Compound 1 showed in vitro cytotoxic activity against HL-60 human leukemia cancer cells with an IC₅₀ value of 8.1μM. Molecular docking study suggests that the structure of compound 1 matches the pharmacophore of eribulin required to display cytotoxic activity through the inhibition of microtubule activity.
