Peptides play a crucial role in the development of pharmaceuticals and functional foods. Multiple studies have shown that natural bioactive peptides possess antioxidant, antihypertensive, anti-tumor, and anti-inflammatory activities. Marine bioactive...

The discovery of bioactive natural compounds from microbes holds promise for regenerative medicine. In this study, we identified and characterized a steroid-like compound, 3,12-dioxochola-4,6-dien-24-oic acid (DOCDA), from a crude extract of Rhodococ...

To identify differentially abundant polyketide synthases (PKSs) and to characterize the biochemical consequences of brevetoxin biosynthesis, bottom-up, TMT-based quantitative proteomics and redox proteomics were conducted to compare two strains of th...

The immunomodulatory polysaccharide CPP-3a, purified from Chlorella pyrenoidosa, was investigated for its effects on RAW264.7 macrophages and underlying mechanisms, revealing that CPP-3a significantly enhanced phagocytic capacity and nitric oxide pro...

The internal tandem duplication mutation of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3-ITD) is associated with high recurrence and mortality rates in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), making it a critical target for anti-AML therapies. Plinabulin is a diketopipera...

Marine peptides, derived from a great number of aquatic organisms, exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities that hold a significant therapeutic potential. This article reviews the multifaceted roles of marine peptides, focusing on their anti...

Liver injury caused by the irrational use of acetaminophen (APAP) represents a significant challenge in the field of public health. In clinical treatment, apart from N—acetylcysteine (NAC), the only approved antidote, there are extremely limite...

In this study, we integrated HSQC-based DeepSAT with UPLC-MS/MS to guide the isolation of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid derivatives (PUFAs) from marine resources. Through this approach, four new (1–4) and nine known (5–13) PUFA analo...

Combining biosynthetic gene cluster analysis with the OSMAC strategy, fractionation of the fermentation extract of Aspergillus templicola from the sponge Agelas sp. led to the isolation of four novel cytochalasins, colachalasins J–M (1–4)...

The fast-disintegrating capsules rapidly disintegrate in various physiological environments, ensuring therapeutic efficacy. The formulation of plant-based capsules with balanced mechanical and fast disintegration characteristics continues to present...
