A new germacrenolide (1) and fourteen known terpenoids (2-15) were isolated from the barks of Magnolia maudiae (Dunn) Figlar (Magnoliaceae). The structure of (7αH,11βH)-2α,8α-dihydroxy-4α,5β-epoxy-germacr-1(10)-en-6α,12-olide (1) was elucidated by physical and spectroscopic data analysis, including 1D, 2D NMR and HR-ESI-MS. Lyratol F (9) was isolated from Magnolia for the first time. The structures of known compounds were established by comparing their spectroscopic data with those in literatures.

Article Synopsis
- The study focused on optimizing the extraction of polysaccharides from the stem barks and flowers of Magnolia officinalis, achieving maximum yields of 4.12% and 5.5%, respectively.
- Three specific polysaccharides, MOBP-I, MOBP-II, and MOFP-I, were purified and characterized, revealing different molecular weights and sugar compositions through gas chromatography analysis.
- The polysaccharides exhibited varying biological activities, with MOBP-I showing significant hypoglycemic effects, while MOBP-II and MOFP-I were more effective in reversing damage from UV radiation, highlighting the connection between their composition and bioactivity.

Six pairs of enantiomeric dilignans, (+)/(-)-magdiligols A-F, have been isolated from an ethanolic extract of the barks of Magnolia officinalis var. biloba. Their chemical structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses, NMR calculation with DP4+ analysis, and the electronic circular dichroism spectra calculation.

Natural products have been fundamental materials in drug discovery. Traditional strategies for observing natural products with novel structure and/or biological activity are challenging due to large cost and time consumption. Implementation of the MS/MS-based molecular networking strategy with the in silico annotation tool is expected to expedite the dereplication of secondary metabolites.

Background: Extracts of root (SBR) and barks (MOB) possess significant antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties; however, these also exert adverse effects such as cytotoxicity. To overcome the adverse effects, we formulated a combination of the extracts, named GenoTX-407, with SBR and MOB extracts mixed in 5:1 ratio. The antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory activities of SBR and MOB extracts and GenoTX-407 were evaluated.
