Abstract
The first total synthesis of bipenicilisorin (1) isolated from Penicillium chrysogenum SCSIO 41001 via its monomer natural product, penicilisorin (2), was achieved. Penicilisorin was synthesized in four steps from a o-bromobenzaldehyde derivative via the Pd-catalyzed one-pot fluorocarbonylation/lactonization/β-elimination cascade reaction. Iodination of penicilisorin gave 7-iodopenicilisorin which was dimerized by Pd-catalyzed homodimerization to provide (±)-bipenicilisorin. The unknown absolute configuration of naturally occurring (+)-bipenicilisorin was examined by optical resolution of the (±)-synthetic bipenicilisorin and a comparison of experimental and theoretical electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. These results support the absolute configuration of the natural product to be Sa. A cytotoxic activity test of (+)-and (-)-bipenicilisorin using A549 cells revealed that (+)-1 has a lower IC50 value than (-)-1.

Abstract
Kagimminols A (1) and B (2), new cembrene-type diterpenoids, were isolated from an Okeania sp. marine cyanobacterium. By combining DP4 analysis with an efficient NMR chemical shift calculation protocol, we clarified the relative configurations of 1 and 2 without consuming precious natural products. We determined the absolute configurations by a comparison of theoretical electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra with experimental spectra, and the absolute configuration of 1 was verified experimentally. Finally, we found that 1 and 2 showed selective growth-inhibitory activity against the causative agent of human African trypanosomiasis. This study exemplifies that computational chemistry is an efficient tool for clarifying the configurations of natural products possessing tautomers in equilibrium.

Abstract
Polycavernoside E (1), a new polycavernoside analog, was isolated from a marine Okeania sp. cyanobacterium. The relative configuration was elucidated primarily by analyzing the two dimensional nuclear magnetism resonance (2D NMR) data. The absolute configuration was clarified by comparing the electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data of 1 with those of known analogs. Polycavernoside E (1) exhibited moderate antitrypanosomal activity against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense. Furthermore, the isolation of polycavernoside E (1) from marine cyanobacteria provides additional evidence that marine cyanobacteria, and not red algae, are responsible for the biosynthesis of polycavernosides.

Abstract
Akunolides A (1), B (2), C (3), and D (4), new macrolide glycosides, were isolated from a marine Okeania sp. cyanobacterium. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses and derivatization reactions. Akunolides A-D (1-4) are classified as 16-membered macrolide glycosides, which are relatively rare structures for marine cyanobacterium-derived natural products. Akunolides A-D (1-4) showed moderate antitrypanosomal activities against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, with IC50 values ranging from 11 to 14 μM. Furthermore, akunolides A (1) and C (3) exhibited no cytotoxicity against normal human WI-38 cells even at a concentration of 150 μM.

Abstract
Cosmic rays are energetic charged particles from extraterrestrial sources, with the highest-energy events thought to come from extragalactic sources. Their arrival is infrequent, so detection requires instruments with large collecting areas. In this work, we report the detection of an extremely energetic particle recorded by the surface detector array of the Telescope Array experiment. We calculate the particle's energy as [Formula: see text] (~40 joules). Its arrival direction points back to a void in the large-scale structure of the Universe. Possible explanations include a large deflection by the foreground magnetic field, an unidentified source in the local extragalactic neighborhood, or an incomplete knowledge of particle physics.

Abstract
Ikoamide (1) is a highly N-methylated antimalarial lipopeptide that was isolated from a marine cyanobacterium, an Okeania sp. in 2018, which shows strong antimalarial activity without cytotoxicity against human cancer cell lines. To establish a synthetic method for obtaining enough ikoamide for its biological evaluations, we have established a total synthesis of ikoamide. The synthetic method presented here lays the foundation for the development of novel ikoamide analogues, which may lead to a discovery of pharmaceutically unique antimalarial drug leads.

The structures of these compounds were established by spectroscopic analyses, and the absolute configurations were elucidated based on a combination of chemical degradations, Marfey's analysis, and derivatization reactions. Okeaniamide A (1) and okeaniamide B (2) dose-dependently promoted the differentiation of mouse 3T3-L1 preadipocytes in the presence of insulin.

Abstract
Polygonum chinense Linn. is a medicinal and invasive plant that belongs to the family Polygonaceae. The pharmacological activities and phytochemical constituents of Polygonum chinense are well reported, but the allelopathic effects and potent allelopathic substances of P. chinense remain to be investigated. Hence, this experiment was conducted to separate and characterize potentially allelopathic substances from an extract of the Polygonum chinense plant. The Polygonum chinense plant extracts highly suppressed the growth of cress (Lepidium sativum L.), lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), barnyard grass (Echinochloa crusgalli (L.) P. Beauv.), and timothy grass (Phleum pratense L.) seedlings in a species- and concentration-dependent way. Two active substances were separated using a series of purification procedures and determined through spectral analysis as (-)-3-hydroxy-β-ionone and (-)-3-hydroxy-7,8-dihydro-β-ionone. These two compounds significantly suppressed the seedling growth of Lepidium sativum (cress) at concentrations of 0.01 and 1 mM, respectively. The extract concentrations necessary for 50% growth inhibition (I50 values) of the cress hypocotyls and roots were 0.05 and 0.07 mM for (-)-3-hydroxy-β-ionone, respectively, and 0.42 and 1.29 mM for (-)-3-hydroxy-7,8-β-ionone, respectively. These findings suggest that these two compounds are in charge of the inhibitory effects of the Polygonum chinense extract and may serve as weed control agents.

Abstract
Two new natural products were isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Rivularia sp. collected in Japan. Hennaminal possesses a very rare functional group, β,β-diamino unsaturated ketone, which has only been found in bohemamine-type natural products so far. Hennamide possesses a reactive N-acyl pyrrolinone moiety, which induces self-dimerization. The isolation and structure determination supported by computational chemistry and total synthesis, as well as the antitrypanosomal activities of hennaminal and hennamide are described.

Abstract
Lyngbyapeptin B is a hybrid polyketide-nonribosomal peptide isolated from particular marine cyanobacteria. In this report, we carried out genome sequence analysis of a producer cyanobacterium Moorena bouillonii to understand the biosynthetic mechanisms that generate the unique structural features of lyngbyapeptin B, including the (E)-3-methoxy-2-butenoyl starter unit and the C-terminal thiazole moiety. We identified a putative lyngbyapeptin B biosynthetic (lynB) gene cluster comprising nine open reading frames that include two polyketide synthases (PKSs: LynB1 and LynB2), four nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs: LynB3, LynB4, LynB5, and LynB6), a putative nonheme diiron oxygenase (LynB7), a type II thioesterase (LynB8), and a hypothetical protein (LynB9). In vitro enzymatic analysis of LynB2 with methyltransferase (MT) and acyl carrier protein (ACP) domains revealed that the LynB2 MT domain (LynB2-MT) catalyzes O-methylation of the acetoacetyl-LynB2 ACP domain (LynB2-ACP) to yield (E)-3-methoxy-2-butenoyl-LynB2-ACP. In addition, in vitro enzymatic analysis of LynB7 revealed that LynB7 catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of (4R)-2-methyl-2-thiazoline-4-carboxylic acid to yield 2-methylthiazole in the presence of Fe2+ and molecular oxygen. This result indicates that LynB7 is responsible for the last post-NRPS modification to give the C-terminal thiazole moiety in lyngbyapeptin B biosynthesis. Overall, we identified and characterized a new marine cyanobacterial hybrid PKS-NRPS biosynthetic gene cluster for lyngbyapeptin B production, revealing two unique enzymatic logics.

Abstract
Caldorazole (1) is a novel polyketide that was isolated from a marine cyanobacterium in 2022. It is a unique natural product that exhibits potent inhibitory activity against mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I despite having no chiral centers. To establish a method for obtaining caldorazole without relying on biological resources and for constructing a useful synthetic route for studies of its structure-activity relationship, we achieved the first total synthesis of caldorazole using a convergent synthetic route.

Abstract
Osmanthus fragrans Lour. has been cultivated for more than 2500 years because of the fragrance and color of the flowers. The flowers and roots have been used in tea, liquors, foods, and traditional Chinese medicine. The species contains more than 180 compounds including terpenoids, phenylpropanoids, polyphenols, flavonoids, and sterols. However, there has been limited information available on the allelopathic properties and allelopathic substances of O. fragrans. We investigated the allelopathy and allelopathic substances of O. fragrans and Osmanthus heterophyllus (G.Don) P.S. Green, as well as Osmanthus × fortunei Carrière, which is the hybrid species between O. fragrans and O. heterophyllus. The leaf extracts of O. fragrans, O. heterophyllus, and O. × fortunei suppressed the growth of cress (Lepidium sativum L.), alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), Lolium multiflorum Lam., and Vulpia myuros (L.) C.C.Gmel with the extract concentration dependently. The extract of the hybrid species O. × fortune was the most active among the extracts. The main allelopathic substances of O. × fortunei and O. fragrans were isolated and identified as (+)-pinoresinol and 10-acetoxyligustroside, respectively. (+)-Pinoresinol was also found in the fallen leaves of O. × fortunei. Both compounds showed an allelopathic activity on the growth of cress and L. multiflorum. On the other hand, several allelopathic substances including (+)-pinoresinol may be involved in the allelopathy of O. heterophyllus. O. fragrans, O. heterophyllus, and O. × fortunei are evergreen trees. but their senescent leaves fall and cover the soil under the trees. It is possible that those allelopathic substances are liberated through the decomposition process of the leaves into their rhizosphere soil, and that they accumulate in the soil and provide a competitive advantage to the species through the inhibition of the growth of the neighboring competing plants. Therefore, the leaves of these Osmanthus species are allelopathic and potentially useful for weed management options in some agriculture settings to reduce commercial herbicide dependency for the developing sustainable agriculture systems.

Abstract
Caldorazole (1) was isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Caldora sp. collected on Ishigaki Island, Okinawa, Japan. Its structure was determined to be a new polyketide that contained two thiazole rings and an O-methylenolpyruvamide moiety. Caldorazole (1) showed strong cytotoxicity toward tumor cells that had been seeded at a high density. Cell death induced by 1 in HeLa and A431 cells was also observed only in the presence of the glycolysis blocker 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2DG). Co-treatment with 1 and 2DG remarkably decreased ATP levels in these cells. Furthermore, 1 selectively inhibited complex I in the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Thus, 1 was demonstrated to exert cytotoxicity toward human tumor cells by blocking mitochondrial respiration.

Abstract
A 68 μg amount of an acyclic polyketide, named beru'amide, was isolated from a marine cyanobacterium Okeania sp. Beru'amide contains six unique moieties in its relatively small skeleton. By applying several cutting-edge techniques, including DFT-based chemical shift calculations, we achieved the structure determination and the total synthesis of this highly functionalized scarce natural product. Furthermore, beru'amide was shown to have strong antitrypanosomal activity.

Abstract
Amantamide B (1) is a new linear nonapeptide analogue of the cyanobacterial natural product amantamide A (2), and both have methyl ester and butanamide termini. These compounds were discovered in this study from the organic extract of a tropical marine filamentous cyanobacterium, Oscillatoria sp., collected around the Paracel Islands in the South China Sea. The use of LC-MS/MS molecular networking for sample prioritization and as an analytical dereplication tool facilitated the targeted isolation of 1 and 2. These molecules were characterized by spectroscopy and spectrometry, and configurational assignments were determined using chemical degradation and chiral-phase HPLC analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 modulated spontaneous calcium oscillations without notable cytotoxicity at 10 μM in short duration in vitro testing on primary cultured neocortical neurons, a model system that evaluates neuronal excitability and/or the potential activity on Ca2+ signaling. Both molecules were also found to be moderately cytotoxic in longer duration bioassays, with in vitro IC50 values of 1-10 μM against CCRF-CEM human T lymphoblastoid cells and U937 human histiocytic lymphoma cells. These formerly undiscovered bioactivities of known compound 2 expand upon its previously reported function as a selective CXCR7 agonist among 168 GPCR targets.

Abstract
Iheyamide A (1) is an antitrypanosomal linear peptide isolated from a Dapis sp. marine cyanobacterium by our group in 2020, and based on structure-activity relationships of its natural analogues, the C-terminal pyrrolinone moiety has been identified as the phamacophore for its antiparasitic activity. Further, we isolated this pyrrolinone moiety by itself as a new natural product from the marine cyanobacterium and named it iheyanone (2). As expected, iheyanone (2) showed antitrypanosomal activity, but its potency was weaker than iheyamide A (1). To clarify more detailed structure-activity relationships, we completed a total synthesis of iheyamide A (1) along with iheyanone (2) and evaluated the antitrypanosomal activities of several synthetic intermediates. As a result, we found that the longer the peptide chain, the stronger the antitrypanosomal activity. As iheyamide A (1) showed selective toxicity against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, these findings can provide design guidelines for antitrypanosomal drugs.

Abstract
Kinenzoline (1), a new linear depsipeptide, was isolated from a marine Salileptolyngbya sp. cyanobacterium. Its structure was elucidated by spectroscopic analyses and degradation reactions. In addition, we achieved a total synthesis of 1 and confirmed its structure. Kinenzoline (1) showed highly selective antiproliferative activity against the causative organism of sleeping sickness, Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense (IC50 4.5 μM), compared to normal human cells (WI-38, IC50 > 100 μM). Kinenzoline (1) is a promising lead compound for the development of new antitrypanosomal drugs.

Abstract
Bromoiesol sulfates A (1) and B (2), new polyhalogenated aryl sulfates, were isolated from a Salileptolyngbya sp. marine cyanobacterium along with their hydrolyzed compounds, bromoiesols A (3) and B (4). To pick up the candidates of their structures, we used Small Molecule Accurate Recognition Technology (SMART), an artificial intelligence-based structure-prediction tool, and their structures were elucidated on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of bromoiesols (3 and 4). In addition, to verify the structures, the total synthesis of bromoiesol A sulfate (1) and bromoiesol A (3) was achieved. The bromoiesol family, especially bromoiesols (3 and 4), selectively inhibited the growth of the bloodstream form of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, the causative agent of human African sleeping sickness.

Abstract
Metabolomics can be used to study complex mixtures of natural products, or secondary metabolites, for many different purposes. One productive application of metabolomics that has emerged in recent years is the guiding direction for isolating molecules with structural novelty through analysis of untargeted LC-MS/MS data. The metabolomics-driven investigation and bioassay-guided fractionation of a biomass assemblage from the South China Sea dominated by a marine filamentous cyanobacteria, cf. Neolyngbya sp., has led to the discovery of a natural product in this study, wenchangamide A (1). Wenchangamide A was found to concentration-dependently cause fast-onset apoptosis in HCT116 human colon cancer cells in vitro (24 h IC50 = 38 μM). Untargeted metabolomics, by way of MS/MS molecular networking, was used further to generate a structural proposal for a new natural product analogue of 1, here coined wenchangamide B, which was present in the organic extract and bioactive sub-fractions of the biomass examined. The wenchangamides are of interest for anticancer drug discovery, and the characterization of these molecules will facilitate the future discovery of related natural products and development of synthetic analogues.

Abstract
Motobamide (1), a new cyclic peptide containing a C-prenylated cyclotryptophan residue, was isolated from a marine Leptolyngbya sp. cyanobacterium. Its planar structure was established by spectroscopic and MS/MS analyses. The absolute configuration was elucidated based on a combination of chemical degradations, chiral-phase HPLC analyses, spectroscopic analyses, and computational chemistry. Motobamide (1) moderately inhibited the growth of bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense (IC50 2.3 μM). However, it exhibited a weaker cytotoxicity against normal human cells (IC50 55 μM).

Abstract
Hoshinoamide C (1), an antiparasitic lipopeptide, was isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Caldora penicillata. Its planar structure was elucidated by spectral analyses, mainly 2D NMR, and the absolute configurations of the α-amino acid moieties were determined by degradation reactions followed by chiral-phase HPLC analyses. To clarify the absolute configuration of an unusual amino acid moiety, we synthesized two possible diastereomers of hoshinoamide C and determined its absolute configuration based on a comparison of their spectroscopic data with those of the natural compound. Hoshinoamide C (1) did not exhibit any cytotoxicity against HeLa or HL60 cells at 10 μM, but inhibited the growth of the parasites responsible for malaria (IC50 0.96 μM) and African sleeping sickness (IC50 2.9 μM).

Abstract
Wedelia chinensis (Asteraceae) is a wetland herb native to India, China, and Japan. It is a valuable medicinal plant recorded to have pharmaceutical properties. However, the phytotoxic potential of Wedelia chinensis has not yet been examined. Thus, we carried out this study to establish the allelopathic effects of Wedelia chinensis and to identify its phytotoxic substances. Extracts of Wedelia chinensis exhibited high inhibitory activity against the root and shoot growth of cress, alfalfa, rapeseed, lettuce, foxtail fescue, Italian ryegrass, timothy, and barnyard grass. The inhibition was varied with species and was dependent on concentrations. The extracts were separated through several purification steps, and the two effective substances were isolated and characterized as vanillic acid and gallic acid using spectral analysis. Vanillic acid and gallic acid significantly arrested the growth of cress and Italian ryegrass seedlings. The concentrations of vanillic acid and gallic acid needed for 50% inhibition (I50 values) of the seedling growth of the cress and Italian ryegrass were 0.04–15.4 and 0.45–6.6 mM, respectively. The findings suggest that vanillic acid and gallic acid may be required for the growth inhibitory activities of Wedelia chinensis.

Abstract
Chemical investigation on a marine sponge, Dactylospongia elegans, yielded five new γ-oxygenated butenolide sesterterpene derivatives, dactylospenes A–E (1–5), as well as two known biosynthetically related compounds, luffariellolide (6) and furospinosulin B (7). The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of their spectroscopic data, experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) analysis, as well as comparison of the NMR data with those of known analogs. These metabolites are the first γ-oxygenated butenolide sesterterpenes to be reported from this genus. These compounds were evaluated in antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and cytotoxic assays. Only compounds 1, 3, and 6 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against DU145, SW1990, Huh7, and PANC-1 cancer cell lines with IC50 values in the range of 2.11–13.35 μM. Furthermore, compound 2, without cytotoxicity, exhibited significant inhibitory effects (inhibitory rate 77.5%) on nitric oxide production induced by lipopolysaccharide at 10 μM.

Abstract
The phytotoxic potential of the leaves and twigs of Schumannianthus dichotomus, discarded in the mat-making industry against four test plants (lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), foxtail fescue (Vulpia myuros (L.) C.C. Gmel.) and timothy (Phleum pratense L.)) was investigated and found strong phytotoxic activity. An assay-guided fractionation of S. dichotomus extarcts against cress (Lepidium sativum L.) through a series of column chromatography steps yielded two compounds, 8-(5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-yl) octanoic acid (ODFO) and (E)-6-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylocta-2,7-dienoic acid (8-carboxylinalool). ODFO and 8-carboxylinalool showed strong phytotoxic activity against cress and timothy. The concentrations required for 50% growth inhibition (I50 value) of the seedlings of cress and timothy were 111.94-128.01 and 36.30-91.75 µM, respectively, for ODFO, but the values were much higher at 315.98-379.13 and 107.92-148.41 µM, respectively, for 8-carboxylinalool, indicating the stronger phytotoxic activity of ODFO. This study is the first to isolate ODFO and 8-carboxylinalool from S. dichotomus and their phytotoxic potential while ODFO is firstly encountered from any natural source. The growth inhibitory activity of the identified compounds may explain their role in the phytotoxic activity of S. dichotomus, which suggests the possible use of its leaves and twigs or its active constituents as natural bioherbicides.

Abstract
Irijimasides A-E (1-5), a series of new 14-membered macrolide glycosides, were isolated from a marine cyanobacterium collected in Okinawa. The gross structures of 1-5 were established by spectroscopic analysis, including 2D NMR, while absolute stereostructures were determined based on NOESY spectra, chemical derivatization, and ECD data. All five macrolides suppressed receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity in mouse RAW264 macrophage cells, indicating that these compounds inhibit osteoclast formation.

Abstract
Iheyamides A (1), B (2), and C (3), new linear peptides, were isolated from a marine Dapis sp. cyanobacterium. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses and degradation reactions. Iheyamide A (1) showed moderate antitrypanosomal activities against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense and Trypanosoma brucei brucei (IC50 = 1.5 μM), but the other two analogues, iheyamides B (2) and C (3), did not (IC50 > 20 μM, respectively). The structure-activity relationship clarified that an isopropyl-O-Me-pyrrolinone moiety was necessary for the antitrypanosomal activity. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity of 1 against normal human cells, WI-38, was 10 times weaker than its antitrypanosomal activity (IC50 = 18 μM).

Abstract
UNLABELLED We studied the effectiveness of teriparatide (TPTD) for treating medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) in patients with osteoporosis and examined differences in the clinical outcomes following daily versus weekly TPTD. The outcomes were significantly improved in the entire patient series and the daily group. PURPOSE Teriparatide (TPTD) treatment for Stage II-III medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) in osteoporotic patients has yielded promising results in uncontrolled studies. The daily administration and the weekly administration of TPTD have been reported to improve outcomes in MRONJ. Herein, we sought to identify differences in the clinical outcomes of MRONJ patients treated with daily TPTD versus weekly TPTD. METHODS We enrolled 13 patients and randomly assigned them to receive either of two treatments: 1×/week 56.5-μg TPTD injection for 6 months (weekly group; n = 6 patients after 1 dropout), or 20-μg TPTD injection daily for 6 months (daily group; n = 6 patients). Patients in both groups received conventional therapy plus intensive antibiotic therapy as necessary. We compared the changes in the patients' clinical stage of MRONJ, bone metabolism, percentage of bone formation, and bone turnover markers between the weekly and daily groups. RESULTS TPTD treatment with MRONJ led to partial remission or complete remission in 5 daily-group patients and 3 weekly-group patients. The MRONJ stage was significantly improved from baseline to 6 months of treatment in the entire series of 12 patients (p = 0.008); the weekly group did not show significant improvement, but the daily group did (p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS This study provides the first comparison of clinical outcomes between MRONJ patients who received daily or weekly TPTD injections. Six months of treatment with TPTD realized a significant improvement of MRONJ stage in both the entire patient series and the daily group.

Abstract
Cyatheaceae (tree ferns) appeared during the Jurassic period and some of the species still remain. Those species may have some morphological and/or physiological characteristics for survival. A tree fern was observed to suppress the growth of other ligneous plants in a tropical forest. It was assumed that the fern may release toxic substances into the forest floor, but those toxic substances have not yet been identified. Therefore, we investigated the phytotoxicity and phytotoxic substances of Cyathea lepifera (J. Sm. ex Hook.) Copel. An aqueous methanol extract of C. lepifera fronds inhibited the growth of roots and shoots of dicotyledonous garden cress (Lepidum sativum L.), lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), and alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), and monocotyledonous ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.), timothy (Phleum pratense L.), and barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P. Beauv.). The results suggest that C. lepifera fronds may have phytotoxicity and contain some phytotoxic substances. The extract was purified through several chromatographic steps during which inhibitory activity was monitored, and p-coumaric acid and (-)-3-hydroxy-β-ionone were isolated. Those compounds showed phytotoxic activity and may contribute to the phytotoxic effects caused by the C. lepifera fronds. The fronds fall and accumulate on the forest floor through defoliation, and the compounds may be released into the forest soils through the decomposition process of the fronds. The phytotoxic activities of the compounds may be partly responsible for the fern's survival.

Abstract
High emissions of air pollutants from Northeast Asia are strongly influenced by air quality as well as by ecosystems. This study investigated the spatiotemporal variations in the sulfur isotopic ratio (δ34S) in atmospheric deposition at eleven monitoring stations in Japan from 2011 to 2016 and estimated the amount of transboundary transported anthropogenic sulfate (TRB) deposition using mass balance calculations. The δ34S of sulfate in precipitation ranged from -0.42 to +22.7‰. Sea salt (SS), TRB, and domestic anthropogenic sources (DOM) were the dominant sources of sulfate deposition in Japan. TRB sulfate deposition was largest on the Sea of Japan side, with an annual average value of 1.5 ± 0.3-6.9 ± 0.5 mg m-2 d-1 (36-44%), followed by Mt. Happo (4.5 ± 0.1 mg m-2 d-1; 88%), the Pacific Ocean side (1.5 ± 0.8, 4.3 ± 0.9 mg m-2 d-1; 24-50%), and the remote islands in the North Pacific Ocean (1.1 ± 0.2, 2.0 ± 0.8 mg m-2 d-1; 19-32%). TRB sulfate deposition on the Sea of Japan side was 2-12 times higher in winter and 1-2 times higher in summer than that of DOM. In contrast, TRB sulfate deposition on the Pacific Ocean side was 1.5-3 times higher in summer than in winter due to high precipitation levels. In Tokyo, the annual contribution from DOM sulfate deposition is approximately three times higher than that from TRB. Annual TRB sulfate deposition is lowest at Ogasawara at 1.1 ± 0.2 mg m-2 d-1, and the annual oceanic DMS contribution to sulfate deposition is high, accounting for 1.3 mg m-2 d-1 (20 ± 6%). The contribution of Asian dust was estimated to be 1-5.2 mg m-2 d-1(3-6%), which occurred in a single Asian dust event on the Sea of Japan side.

Abstract
The bioassay-guided fractionation of an Okeania sp. marine cyanobacterium collected in Okinawa led to the isolation of the lipopeptide mabuniamide (1). The gross structure of 1 was determined by spectroscopic analyses, and its absolute configuration was determined using Marfey's analysis of the acid hydrolysate of 1. The absolute configuration of 1 was confirmed by total synthesis. Mabuniamide (1) stimulated glucose uptake in cultured rat L6 myotubes. In addition, mabuniamide (1) and its stereoisomer (2) exhibited moderate antimalarial activity.

Abstract
Nine new linear lipopeptides, microcolins E-M (1-9), together with four known related compounds, microcolins A-D (10-13), were isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Moorea producens using bioassay-guided and LC-MS/MS molecular networking approaches. Catalytic hydrogenation of microcolins A-D (10-13) yielded two known compounds, 3,4-dihydromicrocolins A and B (14, 15), and two new derivatives, 3,4-dihydromicrocolins C and D (16, 17), respectively. The structures of these new compounds were determined by a combination of spectroscopic and advanced Marfey's analysis. Structurally unusual amino acid units, 4-methyl-2-(methylamino)pent-3-enoic (Mpe) acid and 2-amino-4-methylhexanoic acid (N-Me-homoisoleucine), in compounds 1-3 and 8, respectively, are rare residues in naturally occurring peptides. These metabolites showed significant cytotoxic activity against H-460 human lung cancer cells with IC50 values ranging from 6 nM to 5.0 μM. The variations in structure and attendant biological activities provided fresh insights concerning structure-activity relationships for the microcolin class of lipopeptides.

Abstract
Plants are sources of diversified allelopathic substances that can be investigated for use in eco-friendly and efficient herbicides. An aqueous methanol extract from the leaves of Garcinia xanthochymus exhibited strong inhibitory activity against barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P. Beauv.), foxtail fescue (Vulpia myuros (L.) C.C.), alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), and cress (Lepidium sativum L.), and appears to be a promising source of allelopathic substances. Hence, bio-activity guided purification of the extract through a series of column chromatography steps yielded a novel compound assigned as garcienone ((R, E)-5-hydroxy-5-((6S, 9S)-6-methyl-9-(prop-13-en-10-yl) tetrahydrofuran-6-yl) pent-3-en-2-one). Garcienone significantly inhibited the growth of cress at a concentration of 10 μM. The concentrations resulting in 50% growth inhibition (I50) of cress roots and shoots were 120.5 and 156.3 μM, respectively. This report is the first to isolate and identify garcienone and to determine its allelopathic potential.

Abstract
Cancer remains one of the most lethal diseases worldwide. There is an urgent need for new drugs with novel modes of action and thus considerable research has been conducted for new anticancer drugs from natural sources, especially plants, microbes and marine organisms. Marine populations represent reservoirs of novel bioactive metabolites with diverse groups of chemical structures. This review highlights the impact of marine organisms, with particular emphasis on marine plants, algae, bacteria, actinomycetes, fungi, sponges and soft corals. Anti-cancer effects of marine natural products in in vitro and in vivo studies were first introduced; their activity in the prevention of tumor formation and the related compound-induced apoptosis and cytotoxicities were tackled. The possible molecular mechanisms behind the biological effects are also presented. The review highlights the diversity of marine organisms, novel chemical structures, and chemical property space. Finally, therapeutic strategies and the present use of marine-derived components, its future direction and limitations are discussed.

Abstract
Problems related to weed management such as outbreaks of herbicide-resistant weeds have recently increased. An interesting approach to such problems is to use plant materials with phytotoxic activity. Burdock (Arctium lappa L.) is a biennial herb belonging to Asteraceae and is cultivated in several countries. The present study investigated the phytotoxic activity of burdock and its active substances. Extracts of both burdock leaves and roots inhibited the shoot and root growth of cress and barnyard grass, where the level of inhibition increased with increasing extract concentration. The leaf extracts had 2.0-2.5 times higher activity than the root extracts. Bioassay-guided separations of the leaf extracts led to isolation of a phytotoxic substance, onopordopicrin. Onopordopicrin significantly inhibited the shoot and root growth of cress and barnyard grass. The concentrations of the substance required for 50% growth inhibition were 0.27 and 0.26 mM for cress shoots and roots, respectively, and 1.86 and 0.35 mM for barnyard grass shoots and roots, respectively. The present results suggest that burdock leaves have high phytotoxic activity and onopordopicrin may play a major role in the activity. Burdock leaves may be a good resource for weed management.

Abstract
Anredera cordifolia (Tenore) Steenis is widely planted as an ornamental and medicinal plant in Indonesia. On the other hand, in some other countries this plant is classified as a noxious weed. As a harmful weed, A. cordifolia is reported to have the ability to smother all native vegetation, collapse canopies of tall trees, cultivate as a ground cover and disrupt native seedling development. There is no available information about the involvement of any allelochemicals from A. cordifolia related to these issues. The present study evaluated the allelopathic effect by isolating and identifying the allelopathic substance from A. cordifolia leaf extract. The allelopathic potency of A. cordifolia was determined by a series of bioassays of shoot and root growth on some selected test plants. Separation and purification of the active substances was achieved through several chromatography processes. Finally, the substances with allelopathic activity were identified through high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HRESIMS) analysis and determined by the specific rotation of compound, proton and carbon NMR spectroscopies. The results show that A. cordifolia possesses allelopathic properties which affect other plant species. The isolated compound from the plant material, 3-hydroxy-alpha-ionone, may contribute to the allelopathic effects of A. cordifolia.
