Two new monoterpenoid indole alkaloids 3-hydroxylochnerine () and 10-hydroxyvinorine () were isolated from the roots of . Their structures were elucidated based on the analysis of spectroscopic data and ECD calculation. Both compounds exhibited potent antimicrobial activity against and , and their activities were comparable to the well-known antibacterial drug berberine.

Inflammation assumes a vital role in the pathogenesis of depression and in antidepressant treatment. Paeoniflorin (PF), a monoterpene glycoside analog possessing anti-inflammatory attributes, exhibits therapeutic efficacy on depression-like behavior in mice. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antidepressant effects of PF on depression elicited by the chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model and the precise neural sequence associated with the inflammatory process.

Voagafries A-E, five undescribed monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs), were isolated from the stem bark of Voacanga africana. Voagafrie A (1) has a unique 6/5/5/6/6 spiral ring skeleton with an indolone-fused 9-oxo-3-aza-tricyclo[6,3,1,0]-12-alkane-10-carbonyllactone. Voagafrie B (2) is a rare 5,6-seco diazine scaffold, whereas voagafrie C (3) possesses an octahydropyrrolo[2,3-b] pyrrole-fused 2,8-diazabicyclo[3.

Alstoscholarisine L is an architecturally complex monoterpenoid indole alkaloid with a unique ring fusion pattern, isolated from the leaves of Alstonia scholaris. The 6/5/5/6/6/6-membered rings contain two lactonic rings and one aminal carbon and possess seven contiguous aligned stereocenters, three of which are quaternary. Its structure was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic data analyses, quantum chemical computations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Monoterpene indole alkaloids (MIAs) are valuable metabolites produced in numerous medicinal plants from the Apocynaceae family such as Alstonia scholaris, which synthesizes strictamine, a MIA displaying neuropharmacological properties of a potential importance. To get insights into the MIA metabolism in A. scholaris, we studied here both the spatial and transcriptional regulations of MIA genes by performing a robust transcriptomics analysis of the main plant organs, leaf epidermis but also by sequencing RNA from leaves transiently overexpressing the master transcriptional regulator MYC2.
