Analogues of the sponge meroterpenoid liphagal have been synthesized and evaluated for inhibition of PI3Kα and PI3Kγ as part of a program aimed at developing new isoform-selective PI3K inhibitors. One of the analogues, compound 24, with IC₅₀ values of 66 nM against PI3Kα and 1840 nM against PI3Kγ, representing a 27-fold preference for PI3Kα, exhibited enhanced chemical stability and modestly enhanced potency and selectivity compared with the natural product liphagal.

Departement of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Pelita Harapan University, Tangerang, Indonesia.
The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anti-inflammatory-impregnated gelatin sponges in spine surgeries. Gelatin sponges are increasingly used as delivery vehicles for anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs during spine surgeries. However, concerns about their safety and efficacy persist.

This study aims to investigate the differences in hemostatic efficacy and patient comfort between an innovative domestically produced biodegradable nasal packing sponge and a traditional absorbent sponge following endoscopic nasal surgery. A prospective, randomized controlled trial design was utilized, including 30 patients who were divided into two groups according to random allocation, each receiving one of the two types of nasal packing. The study assessed the hemostatic efficacy, comfort, and safety of the materials by comparing the rates of no bleeding within 24 hours after packing, re-bleeding rates after 48 hours, pain ratings in the head and nasal areas, scores on a visual analog scale for nasal ocular symptoms, and safety indicators between the two groups.

Intravaginal sponges impregnated with the progesterone (P4) analogue fluorogestone acetate (FGA) induce synchronous oestrous behaviour and normal ovulatory cycle in goats. To explore alternatives using natural P4 from plants, we developed a method of ethanolic extraction and a specific enzyme immunoassay (EIA) to measure P4 in the different parts of the walnut tree Juglans regia. We found a very high concentration of P4, specifically in the leaves of the three most common French varieties (∼100 mg/kg of DM) but not in flowers, fruits, septa, husk, oil or cake.

Chemical investigation of the Antarctic sponge sp. has previously led to the identification of new suberitane derivatives, some of which show bioactivity toward respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Our ongoing NMR-guided investigation of new specimens of the sponge resulted in the isolation of five new analogs (-), previously reported suberitenones A-D (-), and oxaspirosuberitenone ().
