Abstract
Myxobacteria represent an underinvestigated source of chemically diverse and biologically active secondary metabolites. Here, we report the discovery, isolation, structure elucidation, and biological evaluation of two new bacterial sterols, termed nannosterols A and B (1, 2), from the terrestrial myxobacterium Nannocystis sp. (MNa10993). Nannosterols feature a cholestanol core with numerous modifications including a secondary alcohol at position C-15, a terminal vicinal diol side chain at C-24-C-25 (1, 2), and a hydroxy group at the angular methyl group at C-18 (2), which is unprecedented for bacterial sterols. Another rare chemical feature of bacterial triterpenoids is a ketone group at position C-7, which is also displayed by 1 and 2. The combined exploration based on myxobacterial high-resolution secondary metabolome data and genomic in silico investigations exposed the nannosterols as frequently produced sterols within the myxobacterial suborder of Nannocystineae. The discovery of the nannosterols provides insights into the biosynthesis of these new myxobacterial sterols, with implications in understanding the evolution of sterol production by prokaryotes.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a crucial therapeutic target for multiple human diseases comprising type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and obesity because it is a seminal part of a negative regulator in both insulin and leptin signaling pathways. PTP1B inhibitors increase insulin receptor sensitivity and have the ability to cure insulin resistance-related diseases. However, the few PTP1B inhibitors that entered the clinic (Ertiprotafib, ISIS-113715, Trodusquemine, and JTT-551) were discontinued due to side effects or low selectivity. Molecules with broad chemical diversity extracted from natural products have been reported to be potent PTP1B inhibitors with few side effects. This article summarizes the recent PTP1B inhibitors extracted from natural products, clarifying the current research progress, and providing new options for designing new and effective PTP1B inhibitors.

Abstract
Two novel rearranged Diels-Alder adducts, morunigrines A (1) and B (2), and four new prenylated flavonoids, morunigrols A-D (3-6), were isolated from the twigs of Morus nigra, together with four known prenylated phenolic compounds, including two flavonoids (7 and 8) and two 2-arylbenzofurans (9 and 10). Morunigrines A (1) and B (2) are a novel class of Diels-Alder adducts with unprecedented carbon skeletons featuring a rearranged chalcone-stilbene/2-arylbenzofuran core decorated with a unique methylbiphenyl moiety. The structures of the new compounds were assigned by analysis of spectroscopic data. The absolute configuration of compound 6 was determined by the measurement of specific rotation. A plausible biogenetic pathway for 1 and 2 is also proposed. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited more potent protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 1.8 ± 0.2 and 1.3 ± 0.3 μM, respectively, than that of the positive control oleanolic acid (IC50, 2.5 ± 0.1 μM).

Abstract
This review covers the literature published between January and December in 2018 for marine natural products (MNPs), with 717 citations (706 for the period January to December 2018) referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms. The emphasis is on new compounds (1554 in 469 papers for 2018), together with the relevant biological activities, source organisms and country of origin. Reviews, biosynthetic studies, first syntheses, and syntheses that led to the revision of structures or stereochemistries, have been included. The proportion of MNPs assigned absolute configuration over the last decade is also surveyed.

Abstract
The Cactaceae family is an important source of triterpenes and sterols. The wide uses of those plants include food, gathering, medicinal, and live fences. Several studies have led to the isolation and characterization of many bioactive compounds. This review is focused on the chemistry and biological properties of sterols and triterpenes isolated mainly from some species with columnar and arborescent growth forms of Mexican Cactaceae. Regarding the biological properties of those compounds, apart from a few cases, their molecular mechanisms displayed are not still fully understand. To contribute to the above, computational chemistry tools have given a boost to traditional methods used in natural products research, allowing a more comprehensive exploration of chemistry and biological activities of isolated compounds and extracts. From this information an in silico bioprospection was carried out. The results suggest that sterols and triterpenoids present in Cactaceae have interesting substitution patterns that allow them to interact with some bio targets related to inflammation, metabolic diseases, and neurodegenerative processes. Thus, they should be considered as attractive leads for the development of drugs for the management of chronic degenerative diseases.

Abstract
Bioassay guided isolation of the methanolic extract of marine macro brown alga Dictyopteris hoytii afforded one new metabolite (ethyl methyl 2-bromobenzene 1,4-dioate, 1), one new natural metabolite (diethyl-2-bromobenzene 1,4-dioate, 2) along with six known metabolites (3-8) reported for the first time from this source. The structure elucidation of all these compounds was achieved by extensive spectroscopic techniques including 1D (1H and 13C) and 2D (NOESY, COSY, HMBC and HSQC) NMR and mass spectrometry and comparison of the spectral data of known compounds with those reported in literature. The in vitro α-glucosidase inhibition studies confirmed compound 7 to be the most active against α-glucosidase enzyme with IC50 value of 30.5 ± 0.41 μM. Compounds 2 and 3 demonstrated good inhibition with IC50 values of 234.2 ± 4.18 and 289.4 ± 4.91 μM, respectively, while compounds 1, 5, and 6 showed moderate to low inhibition. Furthermore, the molecular docking studies of the active compounds were performed to examine their mode of inhibition in the binding site of the α-glucosidase enzyme.

Abstract
Metabolomics has become a powerful tool in chemical biology. Profiling the human sterolome has resulted in the discovery of noncanonical sterols, including oxysterols and meiosis-activating sterols. They are important to immune responses and development, and have been reviewed extensively. The triterpenoid metabolite fusidic acid has developed clinical relevance, and many steroidal metabolites from microbial sources possess varying bioactivities. Beyond the prospect of pharmacognostical agents, the profiling of minor metabolites can provide insight into an organism's biosynthesis and phylogeny, as well as inform drug discovery about infectious diseases. This review aims to highlight recent discoveries from detailed sterolomic profiling in microorganisms and their phylogenic and pharmacological implications.
