RESUMEN
Two new steroidal glycosides (1-2) were isolated from the roots of Reineckia carnea, together with three known compounds (3-5). Their structures were determined on the basis of chemical methods and spectral data. Compounds 1-2 were the unique steroidal glycosides possessing structural feature of 14α-hydroxy-5ß-steroids, and compounds 4-5 were isolated from R. carnea for the first time. The isolated compounds (1-5) were tested in vitro for their cytotoxic activities against the A549, HepG 2 and Caski cancer cell lines. Among them, the compounds 2 and 3 showed cytotoxicity against Caski cancer cell line with IC50 values of 34.4 and 3.7µM, respectively.

A novel metabolite containing sulfur, fusaodavinvin (1), was isolated from an endophytic fungus Fusarium sp.(CTGU-ZL-34), together with seven known compounds 2-8, and their structures were elucidated by NMR spectroscopy and MS. This is the first record of 3-(2R-hydroxyl-1-one-propane)-indole (compound 2) from nature. The isolated compounds were evaluated using the A549, Hep G2, Caski and MCF-7 cell lines by the MTT method, and compound 1 displayed significant inhibiting activity of four cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 11.5, 15.3, 15.2 and 60.5 microg/mL, respectively. However, compound 2 displayed no significant anticancer activity to the above four cancer cell lines.
