The published data related to the identification of the major phenolic compounds as well as its biological activities present in Verbana officinalis L. This plant has received a great interest in the worldwide for its diuretic, expectorant and anti-rheumatic, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antibacterial, analgesic and antioxidant activities.

Cancer is a public health problem accounting for an estimated 9.6 million deaths worldwide, according to the latest WHO report, mainly affecting low-middle income countries. Noscapine (narcotize), a non-toxic benzylisoquinoline alkaloid derived from opium poppy, is commonly used as a cough suppressant in humans and exhibited various activities against a variety of cancers with unclear mechanism of action. Unlike other alkaloids obtained from opium poppy, noscapine is not sleep-inducing, hypnotic drug, rendering it as non-addictive drug and therefore used as antimitotic & antitussive drug around the world, can be orally consumed. Ovarian Cancer is one of the common causes of gynecologic cancer affecting women around the world. The main reason for treatment failure and mortality is the drug resistance against DDP (cisplatin), which has emerged the use of Noscapine against drug-resistant ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3/DDP by activation of apoptosis. Herein, we will describe noscapine chemically; its medicinal utility and pharmacological history behind the noscapine family of compounds then follow its journey for treating ovarian cancer (Figure 1).

Phytolacca latbenia (Moq.) walte locally known as Luber belonging to family Phytollacaceae is used in traditional medicine system and pharmaceutical industries as well. Whole plant is medicinally important. The aim of this study was to analyze the seeds of Phytolacca latbenia (Moq.) Walte physico-chemically and phytochemically. Various bioactive compounds (alkaloids, terpenoids, favonoids, saponins, carbohydrate, proteins etc) were detected in water extract, while other solvents were not ideal for extraction few compounds were screened out from them. High extraction was done by water solvent and low value was in acetone solvent. Seeds of Phytolacca latbenia showed variety of therapeutic potential due to the presence of several phytochemical compounds.

2,4-D is one of the most used herbicides in the world. It has been used since 1940s and its popularity seems to be increasing. Due to its broad range of application and excessive usage, it has becoming a serious problem as it can cause pollution to the environment. Extensive researches have been done for 2,4-D but comparatively few for its derivatives. Therefore, in this review article, I focused on 2,4-D environmental fates, persistence and effects on living organisms. Hence, its toxicity levels, toxicity classification and ecotoxicity studies were reviewed based on available references. In this review article, also discussed the toxicity effects of 2,4-D on animals and humans.

The Author of this article in 1990 submitted for publishing a manuscript describing the split-mix combinatorial synthesis and the invention was expropriated and published by the Editor in Chief of International Journal of Peptide and Protein Research and all the three reviewers are suspected to do so. The Author tried to seek justice but it was refused by the Editor in chief of Nature (where the expropriated invention was published), by the Office of Research Integrity at NIH and by the by the Munksgaard International Publishers, Copenhagen, publisher of the International Journal of Peptide and Protein Research. Since the plagiarists continued to publish misleading papers the Author sent 10 correction letters to the journals but only three were published. The Committee on Ethics of the American Chemical Society also refrained from acting. In order to avoid happening again of the mentioned type of plagiarism, introduction of new rules is suggested by the Author.
