The synthesis of phosphatidic acid from diglyceride and adenosine triphosphate in extracts of brain microsomes.

TL;DR: This study has found an enzyme in liver which catalyzes the synthesis of phosphatidic acid from a-glycerophosphate and coenzyme A thiol esters of fatty acids, and this pathway was also found to be present in brain microsomal fractions and deoxycholate extracts of microsomes.

An overview on synthetic entries to tetrahydro-β-carbolines

TL;DR: The tetrahydro-β-carboline (THBC) nucleus is a predominant feature of a vast array of naturally occurring alkaloids and has been found to exhibit significant biological activities, which promote to develop a plethora of synthetic methods for the construction of THBCs as mentioned in this paper.

The alkaloids of Rauwolfia serpentina benth

TL;DR: Active chemical and pharmacological interest in R. serpentina has resulted in the discovery of several new alkaloids, and the isolation by Muller, Schlittler, and Bein of reserpine, an alkaloid with pronounced hypotensive and sedative activity, has lent further impetus to the pharmacological and chemical study of the alkal steroids of R. Serpentina.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Rauwolfia alkaloids.

TL;DR: Although rauwolfia may ultimately not survive to take its place alongside the solanaceous drugs, the cardiac glycosides and opium, a study of its properties seems likely to lead to a clearer understanding of the complex mechanism underlying hypertensive disease in man.
