Eight new thiodiketopiperazines, designated as graphiumins A to H (1-8), were isolated along with bisdethiobis(methylthio)-deacetylaranotin (9) and bisdethiobis(methylthio)-deacetylapoaranotin (10) from the culture broth of the marine-derived fungus Graphium sp. OPMF00224. The structures of the graphiumins were elucidated based on spectroscopic analyses (1D and 2D NMR data, ROESY correlations and CD data) and chemical methods. The absolute configuration of the common (3S)-3-hydroxy-octanoyl acid residue in 1, 3 and 4 was determined by hydrolysis, benzoyl derivatization and HPLC analysis using a chiral column. Five graphiumins moderately inhibited yellow pigment production by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

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.

Two marine-derived bacteria, Bacillus paralicheniformis (HR-1) and Bacillus haynesii (HR-5), were isolated from sediments and identified using 16S ribosomal RNA gene amplification and sequencing as well as biochemical analysis. The development of a bacterial consortium (HR-1 & HR-5) from these two bacteria was used to increase the production of the protease enzyme under various conditions, including fermentation media, carbon and nitrogen sources (1% w/v), different pH levels, incubation time, and the obtained enzyme, were detected using SDS-PAGE followed by purification. Bacterial consortium HR-1 & HR-5 exhibited maximum protease production (330.
