A new sesquiterpene, ascotrichic acid (1), was isolated from a marine-derived fungus Ascotricha sp., together with the other two known analogues, cyclonerodiol (2) and 10(Z)-cyclonerotriol (3). Its structure was established by spectroscopic methods (1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS).

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the bacterium (), is still a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Fifty-fungi from a marine-derived fungal library were screened for anti- activity, and an strain with strong anti- activity was found. Three known flavones, chlorflavonin (), dechlorflavonin (), and bromoflavone (), were isolated from this fungus.

Neuropathic pain, a challenging condition often associated with diabetes, trauma, or chemotherapy, impairs patients' quality of life. Current treatments often provide inconsistent relief and notable adverse effects, highlighting the urgent need for safer and more effective alternatives. This review investigates marine-derived bioactive compounds as potential novel therapies for neuropathic pain management.

Article Synopsis
- The study highlights the potential of marine natural products as a resource for pharmaceuticals, focusing on a bacterium (S-1) found in shallow sea sediments.
- Researchers isolated a novel compound (4-(dimethylamino)-1-(2-((4-hydroxybenzoyl)oxy)propyl)pyridin-1-ium) and 15 known cyclic dipeptides from S-1, using NMR and optical rotation for structural analysis.
- The novel compound demonstrated antibacterial activity with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 50 µg/mL, marking it as the first discovered pyridinium derivative and cyclic dipeptides from this marine source.

NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK) plays a pivotal role in regulating both the canonical and non-canonical NF-κB signaling pathways, driving the expression of proteins involved in inflammation, immune responses, and cell survival. Overactivation of NIK is linked to various pathological conditions, including chronic inflammation, autoimmune diseases, metabolic disorders, and cancer progression. As such, NIK represents a compelling target for therapeutic intervention in these diseases.
