Several biologically active alkaloids (1-4, 6), including a new quinazoline-6-carboxylic acid (1), were isolated from the medicinal plant Zanthoxylum rhetsa, an evergreen tree, native to subtropical areas. Whereas the pharmacological properties of the plant extract and single constituents have been widely tested, we now show that all of the metabolites have antialgal activities, all but 6 are antibacterial, and 6 and the reduction product 5 (derived from 4) are also antifungal.

Introduction. Herbal drugs of black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) are not registered on the territory of the Russian Federation at the present time. However, the State Register of Medicinal Products includes an extract of unripe fruits of a related species walnut (Juglans regia L.) «Yuglanex» (made in Russia) and the complex herbal drug «Tonsilgon» (made in Germany). A number of biologically active food supplements from black walnut raw materials have been registered by Russian Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing. They are an additional source of phenolic compounds as tannins and flavonoids. The purpose of the article is to study and systematize up-to-date information on the chemical composition of the medicinal plant raw material of black walnut and the pharmacological properties of its main biologically active compounds.Text. All parts of the black walnut are used in the ethnomedicine of the indigenous population of North America according to indications similar to the walnut in Asia and the Manchurian nut in the Far East: snake bites, fever and disorders of the gastrointestinal tract.The chemical composition of the medicinal plant raw material of black walnut is dencently walnut by its qualitative composition. Fruits, bark and leaves of black walnut contain a rich polyphenol complex (naphthoquinones, in particular, juglon and its derivatives, tannins, flavonoids, phenolic acids), vitamins, essential oil, organic acids. However, the quantitative analysis revealed a higher content of biologically active substances in the raw black walnut, especially in relation to polyphenolic compounds.The scientific literature describes the results of experiments on animals, confirming antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifungal, antiviral, antiparasitic, hypoglycemic, antispasmodic, and anti-tumor effect on certain cell lines.Conclusion. As a result of studying the literature and systematizing the current information on the chemical composition of the medicinal plant raw material of the black nut and the pharmacological properties of its main biologically active compounds, it has been established that the main properties are related to the presence of the phenol complex. However, a deeper study of the chemical composition is required. Both the total extracts of the black walnut from plant raw materials and individual compounds show predominantly antimicrobial, antifungal, antioxidant, antiviral, hypotensive, immunomodulatory, antitumor and antispasmodic activities in preclinical trials.

There are vast numbers of pharmacologically active heterocyclic compounds in regular clinical use. The presence of heterocyclic structures in diverse types of compounds is strongly indicative of the profound effects such structure exerts on physiologic activity, and recognition of this is abundantly reflected in efforts to find useful synthetic drugs. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole nucleus has emerged as one of the potential pharmacophore responsible for diverse pharmacological properties. Medical Literature is flooded with reports of a variety of biological activities of 2,5-Disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazoles. The present work is an attempt to summarize and enlist the various reports published on biologically active 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazoles.

Background: Lagerstroemia speciosa (L.) Pers is one of the most valuable plants due to its ornamental and pharmacological relevance. It is known for its anti-diabetic activity with proved potent blood sugar-lowering activity. The anti-diabetic activity is due to presence of its biologically active component corosolic acid. Moreover, L. speciosa and its novel purified compounds are also well-known for its several biological activities with beneficial health benefit on the human being. Objectives: This review provides a summary of pharmacokinetics, toxicity, and pharmacological properties of L. speciosa and its purified phytochemicals which may help researchers for building up new researches in near future. Methods: The current article is prepared by collecting through various online and offline databases. Preliminary source of study and data collection for outlining the review was research articles and reviews that have been already published by many reputed publishers, including Springer, Elsevier, Taylor & Francis imprints, BMC, Willy, The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, Environmental health prospective (EHP), and PLOS One. Result: The available studies results suggested that the L. speciosa and its phytochemicals showed antidiabetic, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiviral, anti-obesity, and cardio-protective activities. Pharmacokinetic stud-ies suggested the low bioavailability of its purified compounds. However, nano-encapsulation can improve the bioavaila-bility related issue and effectively potentiate the medicinal properties of its constituents. Conclusion: Considering the worthy pharmacological properties, L. speciosa is considered as a potent source of several novel drugs. Though, still preclinical and clinical studies are needed to reveal the targets, molecular mechanisms, bioavail-ability, and toxicity of its constituents.

This work aims to study the qualitative composition of biologically active substance (BAS) extracts in vitro callus, cell suspension, and root cultures of the medicinal plant Rhaponticum carthamoides. The research methodology is based on high-performance liquid chromatography, and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra, to study the qualitative and quantitative analysis of BAS. The results of the qualitative composition analysis of the dried biomass extracts of in vitro callus, cell suspension and root cultures showed that the main biologically active substances in the medicinal plant Rhaponticum carthamoides are 2-deoxy-5,20,26-trihydroxyecdyson (7 mg, yield 0.12%), 5,20,26-trihydroxyecdyson 20,22-acetonide (15 mg, yield 0.25%), 2-deoxy-5,20,26-trihydroxyecdyson 20,22-acetonide (6 mg, yield 0.10%), 20,26-dihydroxyecdyson 20,22-acetonidecdyson 20,22-acetonide (5 mg, yield 0.09%), and ecdyson 20,22-acetonide (6 mg, yield 0.10%). In the future, it is planned to study the antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antitumor activity of BAS of extracts of in vitro callus, cell suspension, and root cultures of the medicinal plant Rhaponticum carthamoides, for the production of pharmaceuticals and dietary supplements with antitumor, antimicrobial and antioxidant effects.

Estrogen deprivation is one of the major factors responsible for many age-related processes including poor wound healing in postmenopausal women. However, the reported side-effects of estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) have precluded broad clinical administration. Therefore, selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) have been developed to overcome the detrimental side effects of ERT on breast and/or uterine tissues. The use of natural products isolated from plants (e.g., soy) may represent a promising source of biologically active compounds (e.g., genistein) as efficient alternatives to conventional treatment. Genistein as natural SERM has the unique ability to selectively act as agonist or antagonist in a tissue-specific manner, i.e., it improves skin repair and simultaneously exerts anti-cancer and chemopreventive properties. Hence, we present here a wound healing phases-based review of the most studied naturally occurring SERM.
