ABSTRACT
Six new cytochalasans-namely, aspergicytochalasins A-F (1-6)-together with five known analogs were isolated and characterized from the endophytic fungus Aspergillus sp. from the medicinal plant Lonicera japonica. The structures of the new compounds were established by NMR and MS methods as well as single crystal X-ray diffractions. Compounds 3 and 4 showed weak antibacterial activities to Staphylococcus aureus, with MIC values of 128 and 64 µg/mL, respectively. Compounds 1, 3, 5 and 6 showed inhibitory activities on NO production, with IC50 values less than 40 µM.
