RESUMO
Ten ergostane-type steroids, including seven undescribed ones named spectasteroids A-G, were obtained from Aspergillus spectabilis. Their structures and absolute configurations were determined based on HRESIMS, NMR, ECD calculations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Structurally, spectasteroid A was a unique example of aromatic ergostane-type steroid that featured a rare peroxide ring moiety; spectasteroid B contained a rare oxetane ring system formed between C-9 and C-14; and spectasteroid C was an unusual 3,4-seco-ergostane steroid with an extra lactone ring between C-3 and C-9. Spectasteroids F and G specifically showed inhibitory effects against concanavalin A-induced T lymphocyte proliferation and lipopolysaccharide-induced B lymphocyte proliferation, with IC50 values ranging from 2.33 to 4.22 µM. Spectasteroid F also showed excellent antimultidrug resistance activity, which remarkable enhanced the inhibitory activity of PTX on the colony formation of SW620/Ad300 cells.

By co-culturing two endophytic fungi (Chaetomium virescens and Xylaria grammica) collected from the medicinal and edible plant Smilax glabra Roxb. and analyzing them with MolNetEnhancer module on GNPS platform, seven undescribed chromone-derived polyketides (chaetoxylariones A-G), including three pairs of enantiomer ones (2a/2b, 4a/4b and 6a/6b) and four optical pure ones (1, 3, 5 and 7), as well as five known structural analogues (8-12), were obtained. The structures of these new compounds were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, 13C NMR calculation and DP4+ probability analyses, as well as the comparison of the experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data. Structurally, compound 1 featured an unprecedented chromone-derived sulfonamide tailored by two isoleucine-derived δ-hydroxy-3-methylpentenoic acids via the acylamide and NO bonds, respectively; compound 2 represented the first example of enantiomeric chromone derivative bearing a unique spiro-[3.3]alkane ring system; compound 3 featured a decane alkyl side chain that formed an undescribed five-membered lactone ring between C-7' and C-10'; compound 4 contained an unexpected highly oxidized five-membered carbocyclic system featuring rare adjacent keto groups; compound 7 featured a rare methylsulfonyl moiety. In addition, compound 10 showed a significant inhibition towards SW620/AD300 cells with an IC50 value of PTX significantly decreased from 4.09 µM to 120 nM, and a further study uncovered that compound 10 could obviously reverse the MDR of SW620/AD300 cells.

In this study, 13 previously undescribed acorane sesquiterpenoids, namely, proliferacorins A-M, were isolated from the solid fermentation of Fusarium proliferatum. Their structures and absolute configurations were confirmed via spectroscopic analyses, quantum-chemical NMR calculations with DP4+ probability analyses, ECD calculations and comparisons, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Proliferacorins A-E (1-5) have a 7-oxa-tricyclo[6.3.1.01,5]tridecane decorated with a rare ether bridge between C-7 and C-11, while proliferacorin F (6) possesses a 7-oxa-tricyclic[6.4.0.01,5]dodecane skeleton with an unusual ether bond between C-6 and C-11. Proliferacorins C and D (3 and 4) are a pair of isomers at the carbon bridge between C-5 and C-7, whereas proliferacorins H and I (8 and 9) are a pair of spiro carbon isomers. All isolates were tested for their cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, and immunosuppressive activities.

Two pairs of new bisabolane-type sesquiterpenoids, (+)-aspersydowin A (7S) [(+)-1], (-)-aspersydowin A (7R) [(-)-1], (+)-aspersydowin B (7S,11S) [(+)-2], (-)-aspersydowin B (7R,11R) [(-)-2], along with six known compounds (1-8) were isolated from the fungus Aspergillus sydowii. Compounds 1 and 2 are enantiomers resolved by the Chiralpak IC, using a hexane- propan-2-ol mobile phase. The structure of 1 and 2 with absolute configuration were assigned tentatively by 1D (1 H, 13 C, and DEPT) & 2D (HSQC, 1 H-1 H COSY, HMBC, and NOESY) NMR data analyses and ECD calculations. Compounds 1-8 were screened for the biological activities inâ vitro. The results showed that compounds 3, 4 and 8 exhibited immunosuppressive activities with IC50 values of 10.9, 17.6 and 13.4â µM, respectively.
