RESUMO
A new polyketide, cladoic acid, was isolated from a fungus of the genus Cladosporium. The structure of the highly oxygenated trans-decalin ring with an all-E triene side chain was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis. The unique chair/twist-boat conformation of the trans-decalin core and the flexibility of the B-ring were demonstrated by computer-aided conformational analysis. Cladoic acid was active against Trypanosoma cruzi and inhibited the proliferation of amastigotes and epimastigotes with IC50 values of 27 and 46 µM, respectively, but it did not show any appreciable activity against P388 murine leukemia cells, bacteria, or fungi, indicating it is a potential candidate for drug development against Chagas disease.

Four undescribed polyketides, beshanzones A (1) and B (2) as well as beshanhexanols A (3) and B (4), along with three known ones (5-7) were isolated from the rice fermentation of two endophytic fungi associated with the critically endangered Chinese endemic conifer Abies beshanzuensis. γ-Butyrolactone derivatives 1, 2, and 5 were isolated from Phomopsis sp. BSZ-AZ-2, an interesting strain that drawn our attention this time. The cyclohexanol derivatives 3, 4, 6, and 7 were obtained during a follow-up investigation on Penicillium commune BSZ-P-4-1. The chemical structures including absolute configurations of compounds 1-4 were determined by spectroscopic methods, Mo2(OAc)4 induced electronic circular dichroism (IECD), GIAO NMR calculations and DP4+ probability analyses. In particular, compound 2 contains a novel 5/5 bicyclic ring system, which might be biogenetically derived from the known compound 5 through hydrolysis followed by an Aldol reaction. All isolates were evaluated for their antimicrobial activities against a small panel of bacterial and fungal pathogens. Compounds 6 and 7 showed moderate inhibitory activities against Candida albicans, with MIC values of 16 and 32 µg/mL, respectively.

A fungus strain, Neopestalotiopsis clavispora AL01, was isolated from the leaf spot of the plant Phoenix dactylifera. Further chemical investigation of the fermentation extract of this strain afforded six new secondary metabolites (1-6), along with 11 known compounds (7-17) which included a new natural compound (7). Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis including one-and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HRESIMS), and ECD and NMR calculations. All compounds were evaluated for their phytotoxic activities. Among them, compounds 10, 12 and 13 exhibited phytotoxic activities against Nicotiana tabacum. Compound 3 exhibited weak antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus and Vibrio harveyi. Taken collectively, these findings establish a solid research foundation for future investigations on bioactive natural products derived from phytopathogenic fungi.

Ten new decalin polyketides, zosteropenilline M (1), 11-epi-8-hydroxyzosteropenilline M (2), zosteropenilline N (3), 8-hydroxyzosteropenilline G (4), zosteropenilline O (5), zosteropenilline P (6), zosteropenilline Q (7), 13-dehydroxypallidopenilline A (8), zosteropenilline R (9) and zosteropenilline S (10), together with known zosteropenillines G (11) and J (12), pallidopenilline A (13) and 1-acetylpallidopenilline A (14), were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of the fungus Penicillium yezoense KMM 4679 associated with the seagrass Zostera marina. The structures of isolated compounds were established based on spectroscopic methods. The absolute configurations of zosteropenilline Q (7) and zosteropenilline S (10) were determined using a combination of the modified Mosher's method and ROESY data. The absolute configurations of zosteropenilline M (1) and zosteropenilline N (3) were determined using time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations of the ECD spectra. A biogenetic pathway for compounds 1-14 is proposed. The antimicrobial, cytotoxic and cytoprotective activities of the isolated compounds were also studied. The significant cytoprotective effects of the new zosteropenilline M and zosteropenillines O and R were found in a cobalt chloride (II) mimic in in vitro hypoxia in HEK-293 cells. 1-Acetylpallidopenilline A (14) exhibited high inhibition of human breast cancer MCF-7 cell colony formation with IC50 of 0.66 µM and its anticancer effect was reduced when MCF-7 cells were pretreated with 4-hydroxitamoxifen. Thus, we propose 1-acetylpallidopenilline A as a new xenoestrogen with significant activity against breast cancer.

The genus Penicillium has provided us with the household antibiotic penicillin and the well-known lipid-lowering agent mevastatin. The strain Penicillium sp. SZ-1 was found to grow vigorously in an intact Pinus koraiensis seed, it is inferred that the strain may develop unique mechanisms associated with the biosynthesis of rare metabolites. Further fermentation of the strain on solid rice medium yielded thirteen undescribed compounds, including three andrastin-type meroterpenoids (1-3), two α-pyrone polyketides (4 and 5), and eight sesquicarane derivatives (6-13), along with seven known compounds (14-20). Their structures were determined by detailed analysis of the spectroscopic and spectrometric data (NMR and HRESIMS), in addition to comparisons of the experimental and calculated ECD data for absolute configurational assignments. The hemiacetal moiety in compounds 1 and 2 and the 3α-hydroxy group in compound 3 were rarely found in the andrastin-type meroterpenoid family. The sesquicaranes belong to a small group of sesquiterpenoid that are rarely reported. Bioassay study showed that compound 1 exhibited inhibitory effects against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 with MIC values of 64 and 32 µg/mL, respectively. In addition, compounds 1 and 3 displayed weak DPPH radical scavenging activities. The andrastins and sesquicaranes in this study enriched the structural diversity of these classes of terpenoids. Of note, this study is the first report on the metabolites of a fungus isolated from P. koraiensis seed.

A new dimeric C-glycoside polyketide chrysomycin F (1), along with four new monomeric compounds, chrysomycins G (2), H (3), I (4), J (5), as well as three known analogues, chrysomycins A (6), B (7), and C (8), were isolated and characterised from a strain of Streptomyces sp. obtained from a sediment sample collected from the South China Sea. Their structures were determined by detailed spectroscopic analysis. Chrysomycin F contains two diastereomers, whose structures were further elucidated by a biomimetic [2 + 2] photodimerisation of chrysomycin A. Chrysomycins B and C showed potent anti-tuberculosis activity against both wild-type Mycobacterium tuberculosis and a number of clinically isolated MDR M. tuberculosis strains.

Talaromyces, a filamentous fungus widely distributed across terrestrial and marine environments, can produce a diverse array of natural products, including alkaloids, polyketones, and polyketide-terpenoids. Among these, chrodrimanins represented a typical class of natural products. In this study, we isolated three previously undescribed pentaketide-sesquiterpenes, 8,9-epi-chrodrimanins (1-3), along with eight known compounds (4-11). The structures of compounds 1-3 were elucidated using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry (MS), while their absolute configurations were determined through X-ray crystallography and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) computations. The biosynthetic pathways of compounds 1-3 initiate with 6-hydroxymellein and involve multiple stages of isoprenylation, cyclization, oxidation, and acetylation. We selected four strains of gastrointestinal cancer cells for activity evaluation. We found that compound 3 selectively inhibited MKN-45, whereas compounds 1 and 2 exhibited no significant inhibitory activity against the four cell lines. These findings suggested that 8,9-epi-chrodrimanins could serve as scaffold compounds for further structural modifications, potentially leading to the development of targeted therapies for gastric cancer.

In our continuous work on the isolation of endophytes, the endophytic fungal strain YIMF00209 was obtained from the roots of Gmelina arborea, which is an ethnic medicinal plant mainly distributed in Southeast Asia. The fermentation extracts of the strain exhibited significant antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Fusarium solani, and Escherichia coli. Based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analysis, it was identified as Talaromyces muroii. Four new polyketides, talaromurolides A-D (1-4), along with 26 known compounds (5-30), were isolated from the culture broth of the strain in two different media. Their structures were identified based on HRESIMS, NMR, and CD spectral data. Among them, compounds 2, 4-6, 19, 22, 24, 27, 28, and 30 were isolated from the fermentation broth in CYM medium; compounds 1, 3, 7-18, 20, 21, 23, 25, 26, and 29 were obtained from the fermentation broth in PDB medium; and compounds 2, 5, and 30 were existed in both two media. Compounds 6-9, 12, 16, 20, 21, 23, 25, and 29 were obtained from the genus Talaromyces for the first time. The antimicrobial activities of several compounds were assayed against six pathogens. Compound 1 exhibited inhibitory activities against S. aureus, E. coli, Candida albicans, Salmonella typhimurium, and Botrytis cinerea with MIC value of 64 µg/mL. Compound 25 exhibited antibacterial activity against E. coli with MIC value of 32 µg/mL.

Heterologous expression of natural compound biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) is a robust approach for not only revealing the biosynthetic mechanisms leading to the compounds, but also for discovering new products from uncharacterized BGCs. We established a heterologous expression technique applicable to huge biosynthetic gene clusters for generating large molecular secondary metabolites such as type-I polyketides. As an example, we targeted concanamycin BGC from Streptomyces neyagawaensis IFO13477 (the cluster size of 99 kbp), and obtained a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clone with an insert size of 211 kbp that contains the entire concanamycin BGC. Interestingly, heterologous expression for this BAC clone resulted in two additional aromatic polyketides, ent-gephyromycin, and a new compound designated as JBIR-157, together with the expected concanamycin. Bioinformatic and biochemical analyses revealed that a cryptic biosynthetic gene cluster in this BAC clone was responsible for the production of these type-II polyketide synthases (PKS) compounds. Here, we describe the production, isolation, and structure elucidation of JBIR-157, determined primarily by a series of NMR spectral analyses.

Thirty-two fungal polyketide derivatives, including eleven new compounds, namely (3R,5'R)-5-hydroxytalaroflavone (1), talaroisochromenols A-C (3, 5, and 11), (8R,9R,10aR)-5-hydroxyaltenuene (13), (8R,9R,10aS)-5-hydroxyaltenuene (14), (8R,9S,10aR)-5-hydroxyaltenuene (15), nemanecins D and E (25 and 26), 2,5-dimethyl-8-iodochromone (27), and talarofurolactone A (29), together with one new naturally occurring but previously synthesized metabolite, 6-hydroxy-4-methoxycoumarin (28), were isolated and identified from the deep-sea cold-seep-derived fungus Talaromyces sp. CS-258. Among them, racemic ((±)-11) or epimeric (13-15, 25, and 26) mixtures were successfully separated by chiral or gradient elution HPLC. Meanwhile, compound 27 represents a rarely reported naturally occurring iodinated compound. Their planar structures as well as absolute configurations were determined by extensive analysis via NMR, MS, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Mosher's method, and ECD or NMR calculation (with DP4+ probability analysis). Possible biosynthetic routes of some isolated compounds, which are related to chromone or isochromone biosynthetic pathways, were put forward. The biological analysis results revealed that compounds 7, 9, 10, 18-22, 24, 30, and 31 showed broad-spectrum antibacterial activities against several human and aquatic pathogens with MIC ranges of 0.5-64 µg/mL.

Two new sesterterpenoids, sesterchaetins A and B (1 and 2), and two new diepoxide polyketides, chaetoketoics A and B (3 and 4), were characterized from the culture extract of Chaetomium globosum SD-347, a fungal strain derived from deep sea-sediment. Their structures and absolute configurations were unambiguously determined by detailed NMR, mass spectra, and X-ray crystallographic analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 contained a distinctive 5/8/6/5 tetracyclic carbon-ring-system, which represented a rarely occurring natural product framework. The new isolates 1-4 exhibited selective antimicrobial activities against human and aquatic pathogenic bacteria and plant-pathogenic fungi.

Aspergillus versicolor, an endophytic fungus associated with the herbal medicine Pedicularis sylvatica, produced four new polyketides, aspeversins A-D (1-2 and 5-6) and four known compounds, O-methylaverufin (2), aversin (3), varilactone A (7) and spirosorbicillinol A (8). Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic data analysis, and their absolute configurations were determined by calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and Mo2(AcO)4-induced CD data. Compound 5 was found to exhibit α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 25.57 µM. An enzyme kinetic study indicated that 5 was a typical uncompetitive inhibitor toward α-glucosidase, which was supported by a molecular docking study. Moreover, compounds 1-3 and 5 also improved the cell viability of PC12 cells on a 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+)-induced Parkinson's disease model, indicating their neuroprotective potential as antiparkinsonian agents.

Antiviral agents are highly sought after. In this study, a novel alkylated decalin-type polyketide, alaspelunin, was isolated from the culture broth of the fungus Talaromyces speluncarum FMR 16671, and its structure was determined using spectroscopic analyses (1D/2D NMR and MS). The compound was condensed with alanine, and its absolute configuration was determined using Marfey's method. Furthermore, the antiviral activity of alaspelunin against various viruses was evaluated, and it was found to be effective against both severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and pseudorabies (Aujeszky's disease) virus, a pathogen affecting pigs. Our results suggest that this compound is a potential broad-spectrum antiviral agent.

Bafilomycins are macrocyclic polyketides with intriguing structures and therapeutic value. Genomic analysis of Streptomyces sp. SCSIO 66814 revealed a type I polyketide synthase biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC), namely blm, which encoded bafilomycins and featured rich post-modification genes. The One strain many compounds (OSMAC) strategy led to the discovery of six compounds related to the blm BGC from the strain, including two previously undescribed 6,6-spiroketal polyketides, streptospirodienoic acids D (1) and E (2), and four known bafilomycins, bafilomycins P (3), Q (4), D (5), and G (6). The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis, quantum calculation, and biosynthetic analysis. Additionally, the absolute configurations of the 6/5/5 tricyclic ring moiety containing six consecutive chiral carbons in the putative structures of 3 and 4 were corrected through NOE analysis, DP4+ calculation, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Bioinformatic analysis uncovered a plausible biosynthetic pathway for compounds 1-6, indicating that both streptospirodienoic acids and bafilomycins were derived from the same blm BGC. Additionally, sequence analysis revealed that the KR domains of module 2 from blm BGC was B1-type, further supporting the configurations of 1-4. Notably, compounds 3 and 4 displayed significant cytotoxic activities against A-549 human non-small cell lung cancer cells and HCT-116 human colon cancer cells.

Seven new meroterpenoids, paraphaeones A-G (1-7), and two new polyketides, paraphaeones H-I (8-9), along with eight known compounds (10-17), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Paraphaeosphaeria sp. C-XB-J-1. The structures of 1-9 were identified through the analysis of 1H, 13C, and 2D NMR spectra, assisted by HR-ESI-MS data. Compounds 1 and 7 exhibited a dose-dependent decrease in lactate dehydrogenase levels, with IC50 values of 1.78 µM and 1.54 µM, respectively. Moreover, they inhibited the secretion of IL-1ß and CASP-1, resulting in a reduction in the activity levels of NLRP3 inflammasomes. Fluorescence microscopy results indicated that compound 7 concentration-dependently attenuated cell pyroptosis. Additionally, compounds 4 and 7 showed potential inhibitory effects on the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 main protease (SARS-CoV-2 Mpro), with IC50 values of 10.8 ± 0.9 µM and 12.9 ± 0.7 µM, respectively.

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.

Fungal linear polyketides, such as α-pyrones with a 6-alkenyl chain, have been a rich source of biologically active compounds. Two new (1 and 2) and four known (3-6) 6-alkenylpyrone polyketides were isolated from a marine-derived strain of the fungus Arthrinium arundinis. Their structures were determined based on extensive spectroscopic analysis. The biosynthetic gene cluster (alt) for alternapyrones was identified from A. arundinis ZSDS-F3 and validated by heterologous expression in Aspergillus nidulans A1145 ΔSTΔEM, which revealed that the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase Alt2' could convert the methyl group 26-CH3 to a carboxyl group to produce 4 from 3. Another cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, Alt3', catalyzed successive hydroxylation, epoxidation, and oxidation steps to produce 1, 2, 5, and 6 from 4. Alternapyrone G (1) not only suppressed M1 polarization in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated BV2 microglia but also stimulated dendrite regeneration and neuronal survival after Aß treatment, suggesting alternapyrone G may be utilized as a privileged scaffold for Alzheimer's disease drug discovery.

There are >350 species of the Ophiobolus genus, which is not yet very well-known and lacks research reports on secondary metabolites. Three new 3,4-benzofuran polyketides 1-3, a new 3,4-benzofuran polyketide racemate 4, two new pairs of polyketide enantiomers (±)-5 and (±)-7, two new acetophenone derivatives 6 and 8, and three novel 1,4-dioxane aromatic polyketides 9-11, were isolated from a fungus Ophiobolus cirsii LZU-1509 derived from an important medicinal and economic crop Anaphalis lactea. The isolation was guided by LC-MS/MS-based GNPS molecular networking analysis. The planar structures and relative configurations were mainly elucidated by NMR and HR-ESI-MS data. Their absolute configurations were determined by using X-ray diffraction analysis and via comparing computational and experimental ECD, NMR, and specific optical rotation data. 9 possesses an unreported 5/6/6/6/5 five-ring framework with a 1,4-dioxane, and 10 and 11 feature unprecedented 6/6/6/5 and 6/6/5/6 four-ring frames containing a 1,4-dioxane. The biosynthetic pathways of 9-11 were proposed. 1-11 were nontoxic in HT-1080 and HepG2 tumor cells at a concentration of 20 µM, whereas 3 and 5 exerted higher antioxidant properties in the hydrogen peroxide-stimulated model in the neuron-like PC12 cells. They could be potential antioxidant agents for neuroprotection.
