A new compound containing a unique terpenoid-quinone skeleton, pycnanthuquinone C (1) along with the known sargachromenol (2), prunetin (3), biochanin A (4), calopiptin (5), (12 S,13 S)-12,13-dihydroxylabda-8(17),14-dien-18-oic acid (6), (12 R,13 S)-12,13-dihydroxylabda-8(17),14-dien-18-oic acid (7), and sitosterol 3- O-beta- D-glucopyranoside (8), were isolated from the stem bark of Pycnanthus angolensis. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic means and comparison with published data. The antifungal activity of compounds 1, 2 and 3 was evaluated. Compound 1 was active against Trichophyton soudanense. Compound 2 was active against Trichophyton mentagrophytes while compound 3 was active against Microsporum audouinii and Trichophyton mentagrophytes.

Protein hydrolysis targeted chimeras (PROTACs) represent a different therapeutic approach, particularly relevant for overcoming challenges associated with traditional small molecule inhibitors. These challenges include targeting difficult proteins that are often deemed "undruggable" and addressing issues of acquired resistance. PROTACs employ the body's own E3 ubiquitin ligases to induce the degradation of specific proteins of interest (POIs) through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.

Rearranged during transfection (RET) kinase is a validated therapeutic target for various cancers characterized by RET alterations. Although two selective RET inhibitors, selpercatinib and pralsetinib, have been approved by the FDA, acquired resistance through solvent-front mutations has been identified rapidly. Developing proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) targeting RET mutations offers a promising strategy to combat drug resistance.
