In this context, Tabernaemontana catharinensis Tabernaemontana catharinensis (Apocynaceae) has been highlighted because of the presence of active indole alkaloids. Thus, this study aims the A549 cell bio-guided search of T. catharinensis cytotoxic alkaloids. The chemical composition was identified by high-re- A375 cell solution mass spectrometry, and fractionation was performed by open column and preparative thin-layer Indole alkaloid chromatography, from plant stems. The enriched fractions were tested in vitro in tumour cells A375 (melanoma Toxicity cell line) and A549 (adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial cells), and non-tumour Vero cells (African green monkey kidney epithelial cells). The alkaloids identified as active were submitted to in silico toxicity prediction by ADME-Tox and OSIRIS programs and, also, to molecular docking, using topoisomerase I (PDB ID: 1SC7) by iGEMDOCK.

Academic Editor: Patricia Valentao Received: 24 October 2014 / Accepted: 26 November 2014 / Published: 29 January 2015 Abstract: The plant indole alkaloid ibogaine has shown promising anti-addictive properties in animal studies. Ibogaine is also anti-addictive in humans as the drug alleviates drug craving and impedes relapse of drug use. Although not licensed as therapeutic drug and despite safety concerns, ibogaine is currently used as an anti-addiction medication in alternative medicine in dozens of clinics worldwide. In recent years, alarming reports of life-threatening complications and sudden death cases, temporally associated with the administration of ibogaine, have been accumulating. These adverse reactions were hypothesised to be associated with ibogaine’s propensity to induce cardiac arrhythmias. The aim of this review is to recapitulate the current knowledge about ibogaine’s effects on the heart and the cardiovascular system, and to assess the cardiac risks associated with the use of this drug in anti- addiction therapy. The actions of 18-methoxycoronaridine (18-MC), a less toxic ibogaine congener with anti-addictive properties, are also considered.

Monforte, Ph.D., DABFT, ToxTalk Editor 4: Safety Of Buprenorphine: Ceiling For Cardio-Respiratory And Subjective Effects At High IV Doses Marilyn A. Huestis, Annie Umbricht, Kenzie L. Preston, and Edward J. Cone, NIDA Intramural Research Program, 5500 Nathan Shock Dr., Baltimore, MD 21224. Buprenorphine (BUP), a partial 11 agonist and K antagonist, is under development for treatment of opioid dependence. The present study was conducted to test the safety and abuse potential of intravenous (IV) BUP in the range of doses used for maintenance treatment. Concerns have been raised about the potential acute health risk ofbuprenorphine if diverted and used by the IV route at doses equivalent to those used for maintenance. Subjective effects ofBUP SL (12 mg) and IV/SL placebo (in random order) and BUP IV (2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 mg in increasing dose order) were evaluated in separate sessions in this single-blind, double-dummy study. Data were collected from 6 non-dependent male opioid abusers. Safety parameters included continuous monitoring of vital signs and oxygen saturation for 3 h after drug administration and additional collections over the next 72 h. Subjective measures included visual analog scales of global drug effects, ARCI subscales, and adjective rating scales. An increase in Systolic Blood Pressure for the 8 mg IV dose (+ 13.5 mm Hg) as .~\ compared to placebo was the only statistically significant change in blood pressure, heart rate or oxygen saturation among the 7 drug conditions.

    TUTICORIN RAGHAVACHARI GOVINDACHARI (30 July 1915 - 28 December 2001) Biog. Mems. Fell. INSA, New Delhi, 26, 123-158, (2004) TUTICORIN RAGHAVACHARI GOVINDACHARI (1915-2001) Elected Fellow 1959 UTICORIN RAGHAVACHARI GOVINDACHARI, widely known as TRG in Tscientific circles, was an internationally known Natural Products Chemist who had devoted his entire professional life to this pursuit. Apart from his profound scientific contributions to the investigation of Indian flora, he established several institutions of basic research. He was greatly loved and admired for his personal traits like deep erudition enriched by simplicity and gentleness. BIRTH, EARLY LIFE AND EDUCATION TRG was born on July 30, 1915 at Irulappa Street, George Town, Madras (now known as Chennai). His parents were TG Raghavachari and Rajalakshmi, orthodox but forward looking Aiyangars. The former was a lawyer by profession but had many interests and talents, most of which were inherited by TRG who also was heir to his mother's great love of gardening. TRG whose pet name in the family circle was Patta started his schooling at the Hindu Theological School in GeorgeTown, Madras and later studied in Pachiappa School. His college education was at the Loyola College (1930-1932, Intermediate) and then Presidency College (1932-1934, B.Sc. Chemistry). He was awarded the Wilson Medal in Chemistry for 1934. In keeping with his conservative background, he wore a tuft up to his college days. TRG was a bright student and a voracious reader who would cry even if he came second in class! Playing cricket and gilli-danda and flying kites with his friends were his childhood pastimes.
