Summary 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU)-based regimens are a cornerstone of colorectal cancer (CRC) chemotherapy. Levofloxacin (LVF), a widely used fluoroquinolone antibiotic, has been reported to exhibit anticancer properties. We investigated LVF’s ability to enhance CRC chemosensitivity to 5-FU in cell lines, subcutaneous xeno...

Guided by molecular networking, HSQC-based DeepSAT, and SMART analyses, a chemical investigation of the coral-derived fungus Talaromyces sp. TJ403-AL05 led to the isolation and identification of taladipyrones A-I (1-9), a series of new α-pyrone dimers with four distinct skeletons. Among these, compounds 1 and 9 represe...

(±)-Hypericandrone A and (+)-1 displayed potent antitubercular activity by selectively inhibiting the acetyltransferase domain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis GlmU through a dual mechanism, acting competitively against acetyl-CoA and noncompetitively against glucosamine-1-phosphate.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide, highlighting the urgent need for effective therapeutic agents. Natural products represent an important source of novel anticancer compounds. In this study, we investigated the anti-NSCLC activity of 10,11-dehydro...
