In this study, a new series of 4-(5-fluoro-2-substituted-1H-benzimidazol-6-yl)morpholine derivatives has been synthesized and screened for their α-glucosidase inhibitory potential. All molecules showed a considerable α-glucosidase inhibitory potential with IC values ranging from 20.46 ± 0.21 to 0.18 ± 0.01 µg/mL when compared with the acarbose (IC = 8.16 ± 0.12 µg/mL) as the standard. Compound 4 k having methoxy group on phenyl ring had the highest inhibitory effect with IC = 0.18 ± 0.01 µg/mL value among the examined compounds. Electron-donating groups such as methyl and methoxy on the phenyl ring played an important role in the inhibition. Also, the Lineweaver-Burk plots analysis displayed that the inhibition type of 4k was the competitive mode like acarbose as standard. In silico studies were also performed to explore the binding interaction of the most active compound.

Collective migration of cancer cells is often interpreted using concepts derived from the physics of active matter, but the experimental evidence is mostly restricted to observations made in vitro. Here, we study collective invasion of metastatic cancer cells injected into the mouse deep dermis using intravital multiphoton microscopy combined with a skin window technique and three-dimensional quantitative image analysis. We observe a multicellular but low-cohesive migration mode characterized by rotational patterns which self-organize into antiparallel persistent tracks with orientational nematic order.

The global public health risk posed by Salmonella Kentucky (S. Kentucky) is rising, particularly due to the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes in human and animal populations. This serovar, widespread in Africa, has emerged as a notable cause of non-typhoidal gastroenteritis in humans.

There is a growing interest in harnessing natural compounds and bioactive phytochemicals to accelerate drug discovery and development, including in the treatment of human cancers. Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are critical regulators of many fundamental cellular processes and have been implicated in cancer pathogenesis as well as targets for anticancer drug development. The members of TAM, Tyro3, Axl, and MERTK subfamily RTKs, especially Mer, affect immune homeostasis in the tumor microenvironment.

Antarctic organisms are known for producing unique secondary metabolites, and this study specifically focuses on the less-explored metabolites of the moss Warnstorfia fontinaliopsis. To evaluate their potential bioactivity, we extracted secondary metabolites using four different solvents and identified significant lipase inhibitory activity in the methanol extract. Non-targeted metabolomic analysis using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) on this extract predicted the presence of 12 compounds, including several not previously reported in mosses.
