Mart. Fractions Promote Cell Cycle Arrest and Inhibit Autophagic Flux in Human Cervical Cancer Cell Lines.

Plant-based compounds are an option to explore and perhaps overcome the limitations of current antitumor treatments. Mart. is a plant with a broad spectrum of biological activities, but its antitumor activity is still unclear.

Synthesis and evaluation of the mutagenicity of 3-alkylpyridine marine alkaloid analogues with anticancer potential.

Theonella sp is an important source of biologically-active 3-alkylpyridine alkaloids (3-APAs) that has shown a wide variety of promising biological effects. In the present work, two new 3-APAs analogues were synthesized based on molecular modeling studies to act as potential antimalarial agents. These theoneladin C analogues, containing the thiocyanate group in their chemical structures, were synthesized and evaluated against Plasmodium falciparum (IC values ranging from 2.
