Abstract Arum maculatum , cuckoo‐pint in folk linguistics, is a poisonous but medicinal plant with tremendous properties that need investigation. This study subjected cuckoo‐pint's parts to vitro antioxidant, enzyme inhibition, and antimicrobial susceptibility testing investigate its biological activity. Further, phytochemistry was analyzed by both LC–MS/MS total phenol, flavonoid, saponin, reducing sugar content determination assays. Antioxidant activities were determined Fe 3+ Cu 2+ ‐TPTZ metal‐reducing ability, 1,1‐diphenyl‐2‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) 2,2ʹ‐azino‐bis‐3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging According the results, seeds berries have remarkable radical‐scavenging effects as natural synthetic analogs such ascorbic acid, butylated hydroxyanisole, hydroxytoluene, trolox, α‐tocopherol. Inhibition studies over human carbonic anhydrase II (hCA II), acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), α‐amylase performed, IC 50 values for each inhibition. inhibited AChE, BChE, hCA activity greater than reference inhibitors. Antimicrobial pan‐resistant strains achieved strain extracts, at least 20 mm zone diameter obtained lowest concentrations. results revealed 24 bioactive metabolites associated extracts’ Notably, quinic epicatechin correlated cardioprotective, neuroprotective, antidiabetic

In a five-step procedure, 18 new esters (20a–i and 21a–i) of ataluren its analogs with dihydroartemisinin zerumbone were synthesized from methyl 3-cyanobenzoate. The screening for their cytotoxic activity against two cancer cell lines, HepG2 MCF-7, showed that most exhibit the tested IC 50 values in range 1.61–36.52 µM. Among compounds, ester 21f containing 4-methoxy structure R did not show activity. interactions these derivatives epidermal growth factor receptor protein also investigated by molecular docking studies. obtained binding conformation revealed several notable results, demonstrating similarities between modeling theory experiment. These results contributed to interpreting vitro cytotoxicity proposed basis predicting mechanism action.
