Three new lignoids, premnan A (1), premnan B (2), and tauntangyiol C (3), were isolated from Premna serratifolia wood, a traditional cosmetic plant in Myanmar, together with a new lignoid, premnan C (4) assumed to be an artifact, one natural new lignoid (5), and three known lignoids (6-8). The structures of the new compounds 1-4 were elucidated based on 1D and 2D NMR, IR spectroscopy, and HRESIMS. The absolute configurations of 1-4 were also determined by optical rotation, circular dichroism (CD) data analyses, and comparisons with the reported literature. All isolated compounds were tested for their melanogenesis activities against the B16-F10 mouse melanoma cell line. Compounds 1 and 4 showed melanogenesis enhancing activities of 31% and 50%, respectively, at a 50 μM concentration. Compounds 2, 3, and 6 increased melanin production by 67%, 30%, and 45%, respectively, at a 100 μM concentration, without any cytotoxicity.

, commonly known as Arogo in Tentena-Sulawesi, is a popular vegetable. As a promising herbal tea and food ingredient, further investigation is required to find the best knowledge for medicinal use of leaves. This research investigated the antioxidant activity of the ethanol (EEPS) and water (WEPS) extracts of leaves, based on their scavenging activities on DPPH radicals and their reducing capacities (CuPRAC, total antioxidant/phosphomolybdenum, and ferric thiocyanate reducing power assays).

Molecular morphometrics is an emerging third dimensional aspect of fungal species delimitation. They have been demonstrated to be more informative than conventional barcoding methods. Hence in this study, foliar endophytic fungal (FEF) assemblages in three Magnoliopsida plants were delimited using nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) sequence-secondary structural features based phylogenetic analysis, also known as molecular morphometrics.
