In order to develop new anti-Helicobacter pylori agents, five new and three already known N-substituted-2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyran-3-carboxamides (coumarin-3-carboxamides) were prepared and evaluated for their antibacterial activity. All synthesized compounds showed little or no activity against different species of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria of clinical relevance and against various strains of pathogenic fungi. Among the prepared compounds those with a 4-acyl-phenyl group showed the best activity against H. pylori metronidazole resistant strains in the 0.25-1 microg/ml MIC range, indicating the presence of an acyl function as an important feature for activity.

Anderss (Salicaceae), commonly referred to as Korean willow, is native to East Asia, particularly Korea and China, and it has been used in traditional Korean folk medicine for its potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antioxidant properties. In our ongoing research efforts to discover biologically new natural products, phytochemical analysis on an ethanolic extract of twigs yielded the isolation and identification of ten phenolic compounds (-), including a newly discovered phenolic glycoside () named isograndidentatin D, isolated via HPLC purification. The structure of compound was determined through extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectral data analysis and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR-ESIMS).

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is complicated with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Gastroesophageal reflux disease is prevented by infection and is a predisposing factor for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. However, the prevalence of infection in RA patients with ILD has not been sufficiently investigated.

Chemical Variation and Biological Properties of the Essential Oil and Main Volatiles of Pimenta dioica Harvested in the Northern Highlands of Puebla, Mexico.

Chem Biodivers

November 2024

CONAHCYT-Centro Universitario de Vinculación y Transferencia de Tecnología, Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, ICUAP, 24 Sur y San Claudio, Ciudad Universitaria, Puebla, Puebla, Mexico.

The chemical variation of the annual essential oils from Pimenta dioica (PdEOs) grown in the Northern Highlands of Puebla, Mexico, and their biological activities were determined. Eugenol (>50%) and β-myrcene (>16%) were the main volatiles contained in the annual PdEOs (2022-2024) extracted from fruit and leaves. PdEOs showed inhibitory properties on human pancreatic lipase (IC, 33-44 µg/mL) through mixed-type inhibition with clear eugenol involvement (IC, 47 µg/mL).
