The phytochemical investigation of the leaves and stems of Murraya tetramera C.C. Huang, a traditional folk medicine used as an anti-inflammatory agent, yielded 19 simple carbazole alkaloids, two of which (1-ethoxy-3-methyl-9H-carbazol-2-ol (1) and 7-hydroxy-2,8-dimethoxy-6-methyl-9H-carbazole-1-carbaldehyde (2)) are new ones. The structures of the new compounds were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis including NMR and HR-EI-MS experiments, as well as comparison with the reported data. Most of the isolates showed potent inhibitory effects on NO production in LPS-stimulated BV-2 microglial cells with IC values ranging from 5.1 to 15.1 μM.

Fifteen novel carbazole alkaloids, euchrestifolines A-O (1-15), were obtained from Murraya euchrestifolia. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, Mosher's ester, calculated ECD, and transition metal complex ECD methods. Notably, euchrestifolines A-C (1-3) are the first naturally occurring pyrrolidone carbazoles to be identified, while euchrestifolines D-F (4-6) represent rare carbazole alkaloids containing a phenylpropanyl moiety; euchrestifoline G (7) features a unique benzopyranocarbazole skeleton.

Owning to the versatile nature in participation of Diels-Alder (D-A) reactions, the development of efficient approaches to generate active ortho-quinodimethanes (o-QDMs) has gained much attention. However, a catalytic method involving coupling of two readily accessible components to construct o-QDMs is lacking. Herein, we describe a palladium carbene migratory insertion enabled dearomative C(sp)-H activation to form active o-QDM species through the cross-coupling of N-tosylhydrazones with aryl halides.

The plants of Rutaceae, with wide distribution in China, have a long history of medicinal use. They contain a wide variety of alkaloids, which include isoquinolines, quinolines, acridones, carbazoles, and indoles. Pharmacological studies have shown that most of these alkaloids have antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antidiabetic and other activities.

Background: The genetic and epigenetic alterations observed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) contribute to its heterogeneity, influencing disease progression response to therapy, and patient outcomes. The use of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) technology allows for the design of oligonucleotide inhibitors based on gene sequence information alone, enabling precise targeting of key molecular pathways or specific genes implicated in AML.
Methods And Results: Midostaurin, a FLT3 specific inhibitor and ASOs targeting particular genes, exons, or mutations was conducted using AML models.

Samples from 34 adult patients newly diagnosed with core binding factor leukemia (CBFL) were collected both at the time of diagnosis and at relapse and were centrally analyzed. Eligible patients received either standard induction CT known as "3 + 7" or an equivalent regimen, according to the recruiting center's policy. Patients who achieved CR or CRi received 3 courses of high-dose ARA-C (Cytarabine) 3000 mg/m every 12 h on days 1, 3, and 5, along with midostaurin at the dose of 50 mg b.
