Indoloquinoline alkaloids constitute an important class of aromatic heterocycles consisting of quinoline and indole fused together in various orientations. These compounds, both natural and synthetic, often display various bioactivities which have established them to be one of the interesting medicinal targets. This class of compounds have stimulated much interest among synthetic and medicinal chemists as evidenced by growth in the number of synthetic methods to prepare and study this class of alkaloids. This review compiles the synthetic strategies and methods currently known in the literature for the construction of four important indoloquinoline skeletons.

Immune-mediated bone regeneration driven by bone biomaterials offers a therapeutic strategy for repairing bone defects. Among 2D nanomaterials, TiCT MXenes have garnered substantial attention for their potential in tissue regeneration. This investigation concentrates on the role of MXene nanocomposites in modulating the immune microenvironment within bone defects to facilitate bone tissue restoration.

While advances in cell-free biocatalysis are improving nsAA synthesis cost and sustainability, such processes remain reliant on multi-step processes of product isolation followed by supplementation to engineered cells. Here, we report the design of a modular and genetically encoded system that combines the steps of biosynthesis of diverse phenylalanine derivatives, which are the most frequently used family of nsAAs for genetic code expansion, and their site-specific incorporation within target proteins using a single engineered bacterial host.

Synthetic single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) contain various chiralities, which can be sorted by DNA. However, finding DNA sequences for this purpose mainly relies on trial-and-error methods. Predicting the right DNA sequences to sort SWCNTs remains a substantial challenge.

Nanocatalytic medicine offers a novel solution to address the issues of low efficacy, potential side effects, and the development of drug resistance associated with traditional therapies. Therefore, developing highly efficient and durable nanozymes is of great significance for treating diseases related to oxidative stress. In recent years, prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) have been demonstrated to possess multiple enzyme-like catalytic activities and are thus referred to as prussian blue nanozymes (PBNZs).

Composting organic waste is a sustainable recycling method in agricultural systems, yet the microbial preferences for different substrates and their influence on composting efficiency remain underexplored. Here, 210 datasets of published 16S ribosomal DNA amplicon sequences from straw and manure composts worldwide were analyzed, and a database of 278 bacterial isolates was compiled. Substrate-driven microbiome variations were most prominent during the initial composting stages.
