Article Synopsis
- - This study aimed to identify biomarkers related to anorexia nervosa (AN) by analyzing data from various published studies up to mid-2022.
- - It found that certain biomarkers, like acylated ghrelin and cortisol, were significantly higher in individuals with AN, while others, such as leptin and insulin, were lower compared to non-AN controls.
- - The findings suggest that these peripheral biomarkers could be important for understanding the biological mechanisms behind AN and might lead to improved personalized treatments in the future.

Mometasone furoate is a synthetic corticosteroid used in the treatment of skin inflammatory conditions, hay fever and asthma. The industrial manufacturing routes to mometasone furoate are generally accompanied by the formation of numerous process impurities that need to be detected and quantified, as requested by regulatory authorities. The ready availability of such impurities in the required quantity and purity is therefore essential for toxicological studies, analytical method development and process validation.

Chemical investigation of Caralluma hexagona Lavranos, a wild plant growing in Yemen, led to the isolation of four previously undescribed acylated pregnane glycosides, hexagonosides A-D (1-4), together with two sets of mixtures (hexagonosides E and F), each set consists of three interconvertible pregnane glycoside isomers, hexagonosides E (5a-c) and F (6a-c). The chemical structures of the isolated pregnane glycosides were elucidated by extensive 1D/2D NMR and HRESI-MS analysis, featuring 6'-O-benzoyl-1'-O-β-glucosyl residue at aglycone C-20; while aglycone C-3 was substituted with disaccharide sugar chain (1, 2, 5a-c) or a trisaccharide sugar chain (3, 4, 6a-c). Metabolites E and F included an extra benzoyl substitution in C-20 glucosyl residue which is migrating between the OH groups of C-2', C-3' and C-4' resulting in equilibrating conformations (5a-c and 6a-c) when incubated in HPLC solvent, which we confirmed by the analytical study.

The MeOH extract from dried roots of Oxypetalum caeruleum (Apocynaceae) plants yielded seventeen new pregnane glycosides, some of which had the acylated-ramanone or -isoramanone type aglycone. The structures of these compounds were established using NMR, MS spectroscopic analysis and chemical evidence.
