Abstract
For centuries, medicinal plants have served as the cornerstone for traditional health care systems and same practice is still prevalent today. In the Himalayan region, Saussurea heteromalla holds a significant place in traditional medicine and is used to address various health issues. Despite its historical use, little exploration has focused on its potential for scavenging free radicals and reducing inflammation. Hence, our current study aims to investigate the free radical scavenging capabilities of S. heteromalla extracts. The n-hexane extract of entire plant revealed promising activity. This extract underwent extensive extraction on a larger scale. Subsequent purification, employing column chromatography, HPLC-DAD techniques, led to the identification of active compounds, confirmed via GC-MS and the NIST database as 1-O-butyl 2-O-octyl benzene-1,2-dicarboxylate and 2,4-ditert-butylphenol. Assessing the free radical scavenging properties involved utilizing RAW-264.7 macrophages activated by lipopolysaccharides. Notably, the compound 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol exhibited remarkable scavenging abilities, demonstrating over 80% inhibition of Nitric oxide. This study stands as the inaugural report on the isolation of these compounds from S. heteromalla.

Abstract
Anxiety and depression are common mental disorders affecting millions of people worldwide. Unsatisfactory clinical outcomes with the use of the available pharmacological interventions among some patients demand newer drugs with proven efficacy, safety, and tolerability profile. In this study, the LQFM211, LQFM213, and LQFM214 were designed from the piperazine scaffold and administered orally in mice. These mice were later evaluated in the open field, elevated plus maze, and forced swimming tests to assess the exploratory, anxiolytic, and antidepressant-like activities, respectively. The mechanism of action of these new derivatives was evaluated using Flumazenil (benzodiazepine antagonist) and WAY100635 (5-HT1A receptor antagonist). Unlike LQFM214, the LQFM211 and LQFM213 elicited anxiolytic and antidepressant-like effects. The blockade of the effect of LQFM213 by WAY100635 suggests the involvement of the serotonergic pathway. Keywords: anxiety, behavioral pharmacology, depression, medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
A series of bifunctional Ru(III) complexes with lonidamine-modified ligands (lonidamine is a selective inhibitor of aerobic glycolysis in cancer cells) was described. Redox properties of Ru(III) complexes were characterized by cyclic voltammetry. An easy reduction suggested a perspective for these agents as their whole mechanism of action seems to be based on activation by metal atom reduction. New compounds demonstrated a more pronounced antiproliferative potency than the parental drug; individual new agents were more cytotoxic than cisplatin. Stability studies showed an increase in the stability of complexes along with the linker length. A similar trend was noted for antiproliferative activity, cellular uptake, apoptosis induction, and thioredoxin reductase inhibition. Finally, at concentrations that did not alter water solubility, the selected new complex evoked no acute toxicity in Balb/c mice.

Bioactive potential evaluation and purification of compounds from an endophytic fungus Diaporthe longicolla, a resident of Saraca asoca (Roxb.) Willd. Arch Microbiol 2021; 203:4179-4188.

Abstract
An endophytic fungus (L3), isolated from the leaf tissues of Saraca asoca was identified as D. longicolla by microscopic and molecular methods. The crude extracts of D. longicolla revealed to harbor seven compounds in GC-MS analysis which was subjected to a thin layer chromatography (TLC) for purification and separation of bioactive ingredients. The partially purified fraction from TLC displayed the presence of 2-tridecene (Z) (RT-14.50), 5-tridecene (E) (RT-16.65) and 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol (RT-13.92) in GC-MS. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was performed to further purify the constituents which led to the collection of 2,4-di-tert-butyl phenol (RT-2.34) with excellent antioxidant activity and antibacterial activity against methicillin resistance Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

Abstract
Abstract
Cancer is one of the most common causes of death in modern medicine. Molecular design of novel substances with pharmacological activity is one of the goals of medicinal inorganic chemistry. Platinum complexes are widely used in the treatment of cancer, despite high efficacy their use is limited by side effects, as well as primary or acquired resistance. In this regard, the search for novel metal-containing antitumor compounds is underway. Organotins and gold compounds are promising pharmacological agents with anti-cancer properties. The introduction of protective antioxidant fragments into inorganic compounds molecules is a way to reduce the side effects of anti-cancer drugs on healthy cells. 2,6-dialkylphenols belonging to vitamin E (α-tocopherol) mimetics are widely used as antioxidants and stabilizers. The properties of Ph3SnCl (Sn-I), Ph3PAuCl (Au-I) and complexes Ph3SnSR (Sn-II) and Ph3PAuSR (Au-II) based on 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-mercaptophenol (RSH) as radical scavengers and reducing agents were studied in model reactions. For Sn-II and Au-II the comparative study of cytotoxic action was made and the IC50 values on different cancer cell lines were found to be depended on the nature of metal. In general, Sn(IV) complexes possessed higher cytotoxicity than Au(I) complexes. In order to clarify the mechanism of cytotoxic mode of action the effect of compounds on Fe3+-induced lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial potential and mitochondrial permeability, cell cycle and induction of apoptosis was studied. Organotin compounds can bind tubulin SH-groups and inhibit its polymerization by a dose-dependent mechanism, whereas gold compounds inhibit Thioredoxin reductase (TrxR). In vivo experiments on acute toxicity of Sn-II and Au-II proved their moderate toxic action that opens prospects for the further study as antitumor agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional antitumor Photosensitizers (PS) are normally low toxic in the dark whereas light activation triggers massive cell death (photodynamic therapy, PDT). OBJECTIVE To expand the therapeutic potential of PS to dual potency cytocidal agents, taking advantage of the use of bacteriopurpurin for a deeper tissue penetration of light, and suitability of the tetrapyrrolic macrocycle for chemical modifications at its periphery. METHODS Conjugation of a pro-oxidant thiolate Au (I) moiety to the bacteriopurpurin core and evaluation of cytotoxicity in cell culture and in vivo. RESULTS New water-soluble derivatives showed micromolar cytotoxicity for cultured human tumor cell lines in the dark, including the subline with an altered drug response due to p53 inactivation. Cellular PDT with the selected conjugate, thiolate Au (I)-dipropoxybacteriopurpurinimide (compound 6) with two triphenylphosphine Au fragments, triggered rapid (within minutes) cell death. Damage to the plasma membrane (necrosis) was a hallmark of cell death by compound 6 both in the dark and upon light activation. Furthermore, one single i.v. injection of compound 6 caused retardation of transplanted syngeneic tumors at the tolerable dose. Illumination of tumors that accumulated compound 6 significantly synergized with the effect of 6 in the dark. CONCLUSION Complexes of virtually non-toxic, photoactivatable bacteriopurpurin with the gold-containing organic moiety are considered the dual potency antitumor agents, tentatively applicable for intractable tumors.
