Neurological disorders present a formidable challenge in healthcare, necessitating the continuous exploration of innovative therapeutic avenues. This review delves into the burgeoning field of natural diterpenoid derivatives and their promising role in addressing neurological disorders. Derived from natural sources, these compounds exhibit a diverse range of pharmacological properties, positioning them as potential agents for treating conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. The review highlights recent advancements, shedding light on the multifaceted mechanisms through which diterpenoid derivatives exert their effects, from antiinflammatory to neuroprotective actions. As the scientific community navigates the translational journey from bench to bedside, integrating these natural compounds into neurotherapeutics emerges as a compelling prospect. This exploration of the therapeutic frontiers of natural diterpenoid derivatives signifies a significant step towards innovative and effective strategies in the management of neurological disorders. It highlights the potential of natural compounds to revolutionize neurotherapeutics.

A novel bacterium, designated 19SA41, was isolated from the air of the Icelandic volcanic island Surtsey. Cells of strain 19SA41 are Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile rods and form pale yellow-pigmented colonies. The strain grows at 4-30 °C (optimum, 22 °C), at pH 6-10 (optimum, pH 7.

Background: Pancreatic cancer (PDAC: pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the commonest form), a lethal disease, is best treated with surgical excision but is feasible in less than a fifth of patients. Around a third of patients presentlocally advanced, inoperable, non-metastatic (laPDAC), whose stadrd of care is palliative chemotherapy; a small minority are down-sized sufficiently to enable surgical excision. We propose a phase II clinical trial to test whether a combination of standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine & nab-Paclitaxel: GEM-NABP) and repurposing All Trans Retinoic Acid (ATRA) to target the stroma may extend progression-free survival and enable successful surgical resection for patients with laPDAC, since data from phase IB clinical trial demonstrate safety of GEM-NABP-ATRA combination to patients with advanced PDAC with potential therapeutic benefit.

The effects of vitamin D and vitamin A in immune cells are mediated through the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and retinoic acid receptor (RAR), respectively. These receptors share the retinoid X receptor (RXR) co-factor for transcriptional regulation. We investigated the effects of active vitamin D (1,25(OH)D) and 9-cis retinoic acid (9cRA) on T helper (T)1 and T2 cytokines and transcription factors in primary human blood-derived CD4 T cells.
