Indoles are a significant heterocyclic system in natural products and drugs. They are important types of molecules and natural products and play a main role in cell biology. The application of indole derivatives as biologically active compounds for the treatment of cancer cells, microbes, and different types of disorders in the human body has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Indoles, both natural and synthetic, show various biologically vital properties. Owing to the importance of this significant ring system, the investigation of novel methods of synthesis have attracted the attention of the chemical community. In this review, we aim to highlight the construction of indoles as a moiety in selected alkaloids.

Design and development of an isatin-1,2,3-triazole hybrid analogue as a potent anti-inflammatory agent with enhanced efficacy and gene expression modulation.

Isatin (1-indole-2,3-dione) and its derivatives have been found to exhibit various biological activities, including anticancer and antidiabetic properties. In this study, a series of nine isatin-1,2,3-triazole conjugates were synthesized and evaluated for their anti-inflammatory potential experiments. Their synthesis involved the propargylation of isatin 1 with propargyl bromide to obtain -propargyl isatin 2, which was subjected to click reactions with different aromatic azides to yield isatin--1,2,3-triazoles (3a-i).

Over the past two decades, research has increasingly focused on the interactions between diet, gut microbiota, and host organisms. Recent evidence suggests that tryptophan, an essential amino acid, can be metabolized by gut microbiota into indoles, which have significant biological effects. However, most research is limited to indole and its liver metabolite, indoxyl sulfate.

Tolerance to dietary antigens is critical for avoiding deleterious type 2 immune responses resulting in food allergy (FA) and anaphylaxis. However, the mechanisms resulting in both the maintenance and failure of tolerance to food antigens are poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that the goblet-cell-derived resistin-like molecule β (RELMβ) is a critical regulator of oral tolerance.

In the present study, the stability of a supersaturated solution of indomethacin (IM) was evaluated in hydrophobically modified hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HM-HPMC) solutions, with and without parent cyclodextrins (CDs). A highly supersaturated state of IM was maintained in the HM-HPMC solution and was further stabilized by the addition of α-CD and β-CD. Notably, the highest level of supersaturation was achieved in HM-HPMC/α-CD solution, which maintained a high concentration of IM for up to 120 h.

Cultivable microbial communities associated with plants inhabiting extreme environments have great potential in biotechnological applications. However, there is a lack of knowledge about these microorganisms from Bryophyllum pinnatum (which survives in severely barren soil) and their ability to promote plant growth. The present study focused on the isolation, identification, biochemical characterization, and potential applications of root endophytic bacteria and rhizosphere bacteria.
