Abstract
Nazarov cyclization of the (E)-(2-stilbenyl)methanols under the catalysis of p-TsOH immobilized on silica (PTS-Si) proceeded to give the corresponding indanyl cation with the exclusive trans relationship at the two newly formed adjacent stereogenic centers. The ensuing intramolecular nucleophilic addition by the MOM-protected phenol (m = 0) or benzyl alcohol (m = 1) furnished the Indane-fused benzofuran [5/5] or isochroman [5/6] system, respectively, with the exclusive cis stereocontrol at the two-carbon ring junction. Thus, in a single step, from nonchiral starting materials, the intramolecular cascade carbocation cyclization (CCC) furnished the [5/5] or [5/6] oxygen-containing Indane fused-ring systems in moderate to good yields with excellent stereoselectivity on all three contiguous stereogenic centers.

Abstract
Embelin is a naturally occurring para-benzoquinone isolated from Embelia ribes (Burm. f.)
of the Myrsinaceae family, and contains two carbonyl groups, a methine group and two hydroxyl
groups. With embelin as the lead compound, more than one hundred derivatives have been reported.
Embelin is well known for its ability to antagonize the X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP)
with an IC50 value of 4.1 μM. The potential of embelin and its derivatives in the treatment of various
cancers has been extensively studied. In addition, these compounds display a variety of other biological
effects: antimicrobial, antioxidant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anxiolytic and antifertility activity.
This paper reviews the recent progress in the synthesis and biological activity of embelin and its derivatives.
Their cellular mechanisms of action and prospects in the research and development of new
drugs are also discussed.

Abstract
Simple one-pot syntheses of indenopyrrolopyrimidines and indolopyrrolopyrimidines were achieved via the cyclocondensation of 6-aminouracils and, respectively, ninhydrin and isatin in the presence of catalytic amounts of glacial acetic acid. Similarly, 5,6-diaminouracil derivatives were used as starting materials for the synthesis of indenopteridines and indolopteridines via their reaction with ninhydrin and isatin, respectively. The synthesised compounds were evaluated for antitumour activity against a human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (HepG2), some showing antitumour activity comparable with 5-fluorouracil and imatinib.

Abstract
Clinical application of anticancer drugs is limited by problems such as low water solubility, lack of tissue-specificity and toxicity. Formulation development represents an important approach to these problems. Among the many delivery systems studied, polymeric micelles have gained considerable attention owing to ease in preparation, small sizes (10-100 nm), and ability to solubilize water-insoluble anticancer drugs and accumulate specifically at the tumors. This article provides a brief review of several promising micellar systems and their applications in tumor therapy. The emphasis is placed on the discussion of the authors' recent work on several nanomicellar systems that have both a delivery function and antitumor activity, named dual-function drug carriers.

Abstract
Embelin (2,5-dihydroxy-3-undecyl-1,4-benzoquinone) possesses anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic properties in vivo, and these features have been related to interference with multiple targets including XIAPs, NFκB, STAT-3, Akt and mTOR. However, interference with these proteins requires relatively high concentrations of embelin (IC₅₀>4 μM) and cannot fully explain its bioactivity observed in several functional studies. Here we reveal human 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and microsomal prostaglandin E₂ synthase (mPGES)-1 as direct molecular targets of embelin. Thus, embelin potently suppressed the biosynthesis of eicosanoids by selective inhibition of 5-LO and mPGES-1 with IC₅₀=0.06 and 0.2 μM, respectively. In intact human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes, embelin consistently blocked the biosynthesis of various 5-LO products regardless of the stimulus (fMLP or A23187) with IC₅₀=0.8-2 μM. Neither the related human 12- and 15-LO nor the cyclooxygenases-1 and -2 or cytosolic phospholipase A₂ were significantly affected by 10 μM embelin. Inhibition of 5-LO and mPGES-1 by embelin was (I) essentially reversible after wash-out, (II) not impaired at higher substrate concentrations, (III) unaffected by inclusion of Triton X-100, and (IV) did not correlate to its proposed antioxidant properties. Docking simulations suggest concrete binding poses in the active sites of both 5-LO and mPGES-1. Because 5-LO- and mPGES-1-derived eicosanoids play roles in inflammation and cancer, the interference of embelin with these enzymes may contribute to its biological effects and suggests embelin as novel chemotype for development of dual 5-LO/mPGES-1 inhibitors.
