Commonly known as its anionic form shikimate, is a cyclohexene, a cyclitol and a cyclohexanecarboxylic acid.
It is an important biochemical metabolite in plants and microorganisms.
Its name comes from the Japanese flower shikimi the Japanese star anise, Illicium anisatum), from which it was first isolated in 1885 by Johan Fredrik Eykman.
The elucidation of its structure was made nearly 50 years later.
Shikimic acid is also the glycoside part of some hydrolysable tannins.
The shikimate pathway is a seven step metabolic route used by bacteria, fungi, algae, parasites, and plants for the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan).
This pathway is not found in animals; therefore, phenylalanine and tryptophan represent essential amino acids that must be obtained from the animal's diet
Animals can synthesize tyrosine from phenylalanine, and therefore is not an essential amino acid except for individuals unable to hydroxylate phenylalanine to tyrosine).

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Basic Metabolic Pathways and origin of secondary metabolites.pptx
1. Basic Metabolic Pathway
And Origin of Secondary
Metabolites
Presented to: Dr.Kashif-ur-Rehman
Presented by: Abdul Rauf
M.Phill pharmaceutical chemistry
2. Metabolic Pathways
Metabolic pathway is a linked series of chemical reactions
occurring within a cell.
The reactants, products and intermediates of an
enzymatic reaction are known as metabolites.
Pathways are required for the maintenance of
homeostasis within an organisms and the flux of
metabolites through a pathway.
The end product of a pathway may be used immediately,
initiate another metabolic pathway or be stored for later
use.
3. Classification of metabolic
pathway
Metabolic pathways can be classified as
• Catabolic (Energy generating)
• Anabolic (Energy utilizing)
Catabolic Pathway
A catabolic pathway is an exergonic system that produces
chemical energy in the form of ATP, GTP, NADH, NADPH,
FADH2, from energy containing sources such as carbohydrates,
fats, and proteins.
The end product are often carbon dioxide, water and ammonia.
4. Anabolic Pathways
In contrast to catabolic pathways, anabolic pathways
require an energy input to construct macromolecules
such as polypeptides, nucleic acids, proteins,
polysaccharides and lipids.
An anabolic pathway is a biosynthetic pathway
combines smaller molecules to form larger and more
complex ones.
7. Introduction
The metabolism can be defined as the sum of all the
biochemical reactions carried out by an organism.
Metabolites are the intermediates and products of
metabolism and are usually restricted to small molecules.
The term “secondary” introduced by A. Kossel in 1891
implies that while primary metabolites are present in every
living cell capable of dividing, the secondary metabolites are
present only incidentally and are not of paramount
significance for organism’s life.
8. Secondary metabolites are derived from primary
metabolism.
Secondary metabolites or natural products can be
defined as:
A heterogeneous group of natural metabolic
products that are not essential for vegetative
growth of the producing organisms.
9. Classification of secondary
metabolites
Secondary metabolites are classified into 5 classes these
are:
Terpenoids and steroids
Alkaloids
Fatty acid-derived substances and polyketides
Non-ribosomal polypeptides
Enzyme cofactors
10. Terpenoids and steroids
They are major group of substances derived
biosynthetically from isopentenyl diphosphate.
Currently, over 35,000 known terpenoid and steroid
compounds are identified.
Terpenoids have different variety of unrelated structures,
while steroids have a common tetra cyclic carbon skeleton
and are modified terpenoids that are biosynthesized from
the triterpene lanosterol.
11. Alkaloids
There are over 12,000 known compounds of alkaloids.
Basic structures consist of basic amine group and are
derived biosynthetically from amino acids.
Fatty acid-derived substances and polyketides
Around 10,000 compounds are identified.
Biosynthesized from simple acyl precursors such as
propionyl CoA, acetyl CoA, and methylmalonyl CoA.
12. Non-ribosomal polypeptides
These amino acids derived compounds are biologically
synthesized by a multifunctional enzyme complex without
direct RNA transcription.
Enzyme cofactors
Enzyme cofactors are non-protein, low-molecular enzyme
component.
13. Sources of secondary metabolites
The major sources of secondary metabolites are plants (80% of
secondary metabolite), bacteria, fungi, and many marine
organisms (sponges, tunicates, corals, and snails).
Secondary metabolites of plants
Plant secondary metabolites represent highly economically
valuable products.
These are used as high value chemicals such as drugs, flavors,
fragrances, insecticides, dyes, etc.
Plants are rich in a wide variety of secondary metabolites, such
as tannins, terpenoids, alkaloids, and flavonoids, which have
been found to have antimicrobial properties.
14. • Plants have an almost limitless ability to synthesize
aromatic substances, most of which are phenols or
their oxygen-substituted derivatives .
• About 25,000 terpenoids are known as secondary
compounds and are derived from the five-carbon
precursor isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP).
• In total, around 12,000 known alkaloids are
identified, and they possess one or more nitrogen
atoms which are biosynthesized from amino acids.
15. • Many alkaloids are used in medicine, usually in the
form of salts. Some examples include vinblastine which
has antitumor properties ; quinine which has
antipyretics and anti malarial properties; and reserpine
which can be used to treat high blood pressure.
• Alkaloids are regarded as reserve materials for protein
synthesis, as protective substances discouraging animal
or insect attacks, and as plant stimulants or regulators
or simply as detoxification products.
16. • Alkaloids currently in clinical use include the
analgesics morphine and codeine, the
anticancer agent vinblastine, the gout
suppressant colchicines, the muscle relaxant
tubocurarine, the anti-arrhythmic ajmalicine,
the antibiotic sanguinarine, and the sedative
scopolamine.
17. Functions of secondary
metabolites
The major functions of the secondary metabolites including antibiotics are:
• Competitive weapons against other livings such as animals, plants, insects,
and microorganisms
• Metal transporting agents
• Agents for symbiotic relation with other organisms
• Reproductive agent and
• Differentiation effectors
• Agents of communication between organisms
