Pyrrole-2-aminoimidazole compounds are found in marine organisms, mainly as secondary metabolites in various marine sponges. Studies of natural pyrrole-2-aminoimidazole compounds showed that they possess different pharmacological properties, such as antimicrobial, antibiofilm, immunosuppressive and anticancer activities. Many analogs of the natural

The nonenzymatic polymerization of RNA may have enabled copying of functional sequences during the origin of life. Recent progress utilizing 5'-phosphoro-2-aminoimidazole activation has reinvigorated the possibility of using nonenzymatic RNA polymerization for copying arbitrary sequences. However, the reasons why 2-aminoimidazole

Metabolic dysfunctions are often linked to reproductive abnormalities. Adiponectin (ADP), a peripheral hormone secreted by white adipose tissue, is important in energy homeostasis and appetite regulation. GnRH neurons are integral components of the reproductive axis, controlling synthesis, and release of
