A Concise Synthesis of (+)-Salvadione B
The novel hexacyclic triterpene salvadione B was synthesized in seven steps from the chiral quinone shown. The insight gained from this synthesis permitted a two-step, one-pot sequence to introduce the three additional rings and seven chiral centers

Sinulaspirolactam A, a novel aza-spirocyclic valerenane sesquiterpenoid from soft coral <i>Sinularia</i> sp.
<p>A novel valerenane sesquiterpenoid sinulaspirolactam A (<b>1</b>), together with five known compounds, was isolated from the soft coral <i>Sinularia</i> sp. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analyses. The absolute configuration of <b>1</b> was established by ECD calculation. Compound <b>1</b> was the first example of valerenane sesquiterpenoid bearing an aza-spiro[4.5] ring moiety, the plausible biogenetic pathway of which was proposed. Cytotoxic activities of these compounds were also evaluated.</p
A new α-pyrone from the deep-sea actinomycete <i>Nocardiopsis dassonvillei</i> subsp. <i>dassonvillei</i> DSM 43111(T)
<p>A new α-pyrone, nocapyrone S (<b>1</b>), together with five known compounds (<b>2-6</b>), were isolated from the deep-sea actinomycete <i>Nocardiopsis dassonvillei</i> subsp. <i>dassonvillei</i> DSM 43111(T). Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analyses. The absolute configuration of <b>1</b> was established by quantum approaches. Cytotoxic activity of <b>1</b> was evaluated against K562, MCF-7, SGC7901, A375, Hela, and HepG2 cell lines.</p
DataSheet_2_Serum organic acid metabolites can be used as potential biomarkers to identify prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and prostate cancer.docx
BackgroundNoninvasive methods for the early identify diagnosis of prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and prostate cancer (PCa) are current clinical challenges.MethodsThe serum metabolites of 20 healthy individuals and patients with prostatitis, BPH, or PCa were identified using untargeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). In addition, targeted LC-MS was used to verify the organic acid metabolites in the serum of a validation cohort.ResultsOrganic acid metabolites had good sensitivity and specificity in differentiating prostatitis, BPH, and PCa. Three diagnostic models identified patients with PROSTATITIS: phenyllactic acid (area under the curve [AUC]=0.773), pyroglutamic acid (AUC=0.725), and pantothenic acid (AUC=0.721). Three diagnostic models identified BPH: citric acid (AUC=0.859), malic acid (AUC=0.820), and D-glucuronic acid (AUC=0.810). Four diagnostic models identified PCa: 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid (AUC=0.804), citric acid (AUC=0.918), malic acid (AUC=0.862), and phenyllactic acid (AUC=0.713). Two diagnostic models distinguished BPH from PCa: phenyllactic acid (AUC=0.769) and pyroglutamic acid (AUC=0.761). Three diagnostic models distinguished benign BPH from PROSTATITIS: citric acid (AUC=0.842), ethylmalonic acid (AUC=0.814), and hippuric acid (AUC=0.733). Six diagnostic models distinguished BPH from prostatitis: citric acid (AUC=0.926), pyroglutamic acid (AUC=0.864), phenyllactic acid (AUC=0.850), ethylmalonic acid (AUC=0.843), 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid (AUC=0.817), and hippuric acid (AUC=0.791). Three diagnostic models distinguished PCa patients with PROSTATITISA 4.0 ng/mL: 5-hydromethyl-2-furoic acid (AUC=0.749), ethylmalonic acid (AUC=0.750), and pyroglutamic acid (AUC=0.929). Conclusions: These results suggest that serum organic acid metabolites can be used as biomarkers to differentiate prostatitis, BPH, and PCa.</p
