A Desymmetrization-Based Total Synthesis of Reserpine
Park, Jisook,Chen, David Y.-K.
, p. 16152 - 16156 (2018/11/23)
Reported herein is a desymmetrization-based synthetic approach to the fused polycyclic indole alkaloid reserpine. The centerpiece of the developed strategy features an internal desymmetrization process that enabled the use of a readily accessible and nonstereogenic reserpine E-ring precursor, in contrast to the synthesis-intensive and stereodefined E-ring intermediates employed in all past reserpine syntheses. Utilization of inexpensive reagents through an orchestrated sequence of carefully selected chemical transformations further highlight the overall effectiveness of the developed pathway.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR DIAGNOSING AND TREATING SALT SENSITIVITY OF BLOOD PRESSURE

To characterize the urinary exosome miRNome, microarrays were used to identify the miRNA spectrum present within urinary exosomes from ten individuals that were previously classified for their salt sensitivity status. The present application discloses distinct patterns of selected exosomal miRNA expression that were different between salt-sensitive (SS), salt-resistant (SR), and inverse salt-sensitive (ISS) individuals. These miRNAs can be useful as biomarkers either individually or as panels comprising multiple miRNAs. The present invention provides compositions and methods for identifying, diagnosing, monitoring, and treating subjects with salt sensitivity of blood pressure. The applications discloses panels of miRNAs useful for comparing profiles, and in some cases one or more of the miRNAs in a panel can be used. The miRNAs useful for distinguishing SS and SR or ISS and SR subjects. One or more of the 45 miRNAs can be used. Some of the miRNAs have not been previously reported to be circulating. See those miRNAs with asterisks in FIG. 1 and below. The present invention encompasses the use of one or more of these markers for identifying and diagnosing SR, SS, and ISS subjects.

, p. 16255 - 16262 (2007/10/03)
Full details of three approaches to an entirely regio- and Stereoselective synthesis of the well-known target reserpine are described, culminating in a total synthesis which efficiently meets these requirements.
Total synthesis of (-)-reserpine using the chiron approach
Hanessian, Stephen,Pan, Jingwen,Carnell, Andrew,Bouchard, Herve,Lesage, Luc
, p. 465 - 473 (2007/10/03)
A highly stereocontrolled synthesis of ring D/E precursor to reserpine has been developed starting from (-)-quinic acid as a chiral template. The total synthesis of (-)-reserpine is described through the cyclization of an immonium lactam intermediate.
Genaral Strategies for the Synthesis of Indole Alkaloids. Total Syntheses of (+/-)-Reserpine and (+/-)-α-Yohimbine
Martin, Stephen F.,Rueeger, Heinrich,Williamson, Sidney A.,Grzejszczak, Slawomir
, p. 6124 - 6134 (2007/10/02)
The concise, total syntheses of the indole alkaloids (+/-)-reserpine (1) and (+/-)-α-yohimbine (4) have been completed by the application of a general strategy that features an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction for the facile construction of the functio
