ABSTRACT
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.
