RESUMO
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.

Aspercitrininone A (1), a novel polyketide featuring an unprecedented tetracyclic 6/6/6/5 spiral skeleton, was obtained from the rice fermentation cultures of the fungus Aspergillus cristatus together with five known compounds (2-6). Their structures were determined by HRESIMS data, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. Aspercitrininone A was revealed as a new type of C/D cycle spiral structure and an unusual addition product of o-quinoid form citrinin with 2-methylterrefuranone. Compounds 1, 4, and 5 exhibited potent antibacterial activities with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values from 13.2 to 67.3 µg/mL against four strains of human pathogenic bacteria in vitro.

The antagonistic coculture with tea phytopathogen Colletotrichum pseudomajus induces antifungal cryptic metabolites from isogenesis endophyte Daldinia eschscholtzii against tea phytopathogens. Sixteen new polyketides with six structural frameworks including ten cryptic ones, named coldaldols A-C (1-3), collediol (5), and daldinrins A-L (10-20 and 23), were found from the coculture of C. pseudomajus and D. eschscholtzii by different culture methods. The unique framework of compounds 11 and 12 featured a benzopyran-C7 polyketone hybrid, and compounds 13-16 were characterized by the novel benzopyran dimer. The structures were determined mainly by spectroscopic methods, including extensive one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D) NMR, high resolution electrospray ionisation mass spectroscopy (HRESIMS), ECD calculation, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The configuration of acyclic compounds 5 and 18 were determined by application of the universal NMR database. Most compounds showed significant antifungal activities against the tea pathogens C. pseudomajus and Alternaria sp. with MICs of 1-8 µg/mL. Compound 12 had stronger antifungal activity than that of positive drug nystatin. The ether bond at C-4 of the benzopyran derivative increased the antifungal activity. Compounds 4-9 and 11-23 showed antifeedant activities against silkworms with feeding deterrence indices of 15-100% at the concentration of 50 µg/cm2.

Anthraquinones (AQ), unveiling large structural diversity, among polyketides demonstrate a wide range of applications. The hydroxy anthraquinones (HAQ), a group of anthraquinone derivatives, are secondary metabolites produced by bacteria and eukaryotes. Plant-based HAQ are well-studied unlike bacterial HAQ and applied as herbal medicine for centuries. Bacteria are known to synthesize a wide variety of structurally diversified HAQ through polyketide pathways using polyketide synthases (I, II & III) principally through polyketide synthase-II. The actinobacteria especially the genus Streptomyces and Micromonospora represent a rich source of HAQ, however novel HAQ are reported from the rare actinobacteria genera (Salinospora, Actinoplanes, Amycoloptosis, Verrucosispora, Xenorhabdus, and Photorhabdus. Though several reviews are available on AQ produced by plants and fungi, however none on bacterial AQ. The current review focused on sources of bacterial HAQ and their structural diversity and biological activities along with toxicity and side effects.

As part of our continuing efforts to discover new bioactive compounds from endophytic fungal sources, we have investigated the extract of the Paraphaeosphaeria sporulosa F03 strain. The study led to the isolation of four new 3-methyl-isoquinoline alkaloids (1: â-â4: ) and four known polyketides (5: â-â8: ). The structures of compounds 1: â-â4: were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR experiments and HRMS analysis. The absolute configuration of 4: was determined by comparison of its experimental electronic circular dichroism spectrum with calculated data. Compounds 1: â-â4: exhibited antifungal activity with minimal inhibitory concentration values ranging from 6.25â-â50 µg/mL against six Candida species but they did not present any cytotoxic activity against the human tumor cell lines A549 (lung), MCF-7 (breast), and HepG2 (hepatocellular). In addition, compound 4: exhibited antiplasmodial activity in the low micromolar range (IC50 = 4 µM).

Marine-derived fungi can usually produce structurally novel and biologically potent metabolites. In this study, a new diketopiperazine alkaloid (1) and two new polyketides (10 and 11), along with 8 known diketopiperazine alkaloids (2-9) were isolated from marine-derived fungus Penicillium sp. TW58-16. Their structures were fully elucidated by analyzing UV, IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D, and 2D NMR spectroscopic data. The absolute configurations of the new compounds 1, 10 and 11 were ascertained by X-ray diffraction (Cu Kα radiation) and comparing their CD data with those reported. In addition, the antibacterial activities of these compounds against Helicobacter pylori in vitro were assessed. Results showed that compounds 3, 6, 8 and 9 displayed moderate antibacterial activity against standard strains and drug-resistant clinical isolates of H. pylori in vitro. This result demonstrates that diketopiperazine alkaloids could be lead compounds to be explored for the treatment of H. pylori infection.

The present study aims at the isolation and identification of diverse phenolic polyketides from Aloe vera (L.) Burm.f. and Aloe plicatilis (L.) Miller and includes their 5-LOX/COX-1 inhibiting potency. After initial Sephadex-LH20 gel filtration and combined silica gel 60- and RP18-CC, three dihydroisocoumarins (nonaketides), four 5-methyl-8-C-glucosylchromones (heptaketides) from A. vera, and two hexaketide-naphthalenes from A. plicatilis have been isolated by means of HSCCC. The structures of all polyketides were elucidated by ESI-MS and 2D 1H/13C-NMR (HMQC, HMBC) techniques. The analytical/preparative separation of 3R-feralolide, 3'-O-ß-d-glucopyranosyl- and the new 6-O-ß-d-glucopyranosyl-3R-feralolide into their respective positional isomers are described here for the first time, including the assignment of the 3R-configuration in all feralolides by comparative CD spectroscopy. The chromones 7-O-methyl-aloesin and 7-O-methyl-aloeresin A were isolated for the first time from A. vera, together with the previously described aloesin (syn. aloeresin B) and aloeresin D. Furthermore, the new 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-O-ß-d-glucopyranosyl- 3,6R-dihydroxy-8R-methylnaphtalene was isolated from A. plicatilis, together with the known plicataloside. Subsequently, biological-pharmacological screening was performed to identify Aloe polyketides with anti-inflammatory potential in vitro. In addition to the above constituents, the anthranoids (octaketides) aloe emodin, aloin, 6'-(E)-p-coumaroyl-aloin A and B, and 6'-(E)-p-coumaroyl-7-hydroxy-8-O-methyl-aloin A and B were tested. In the COX-1 examination, only feralolide (10 µM) inhibited the formation of MDA by 24%, whereas the other polyketides did not display any inhibition at all. In the 5-LOX-test, all aloin-type anthranoids (10 µM) inhibited the formation of LTB4 by about 25-41%. Aloesin also displayed 10% inhibition at 10 µM in this in vitro setup, while the other chromones and naphthalenes did not display any activity. The present study, therefore, demonstrates the importance of low molecular phenolic polyketides for the known overall anti-inflammatory activity of Aloe vera preparations.

Fermentation of the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus falconensis, isolated from sediment collected from the Red Sea, Egypt on solid rice medium containing 3.5% NaCl yielded a new dibenzoxepin derivative (1) and a new natural isocoumarin (2) along with six known compounds (3-8). Changes in the metabolic profile of the fungus were induced by replacing NaCl with 3.5% (NH4)2SO4 that resulted in the accumulation of three further known compounds (9-11), which were not detected when the fungus was cultivated in the presence of NaCl. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by HRESIMS and 1D/2D NMR as well as by comparison with the literature. Molecular docking was conducted for all isolated compounds on crucial enzymes involved in the formation, progression and metastasis of cancer which included human cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK-2), human DNA topoisomerase II (TOP-2) and matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13). Diorcinol (7), sulochrin (9) and monochlorosulochrin (10) displayed notable stability within the active pocket of CDK-2 with free binding energy (ΔG) equals to -25.72, -25.03 and -25.37 Kcal/mol, respectively whereas sulochrin (9) exerted the highest fitting score within MMP-13 active center (ΔG = -33.83 Kcal/mol). In vitro cytotoxic assessment using MTT assay showed that sulochrin (9) exhibited cytotoxic activity versus L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells with an IC50 value of 5.1 µM and inhibition of migration of MDA-MB 231 breast cancer cells at a concentration of 70 µM.

Overexpression of the histone acetyltransferase and the 1H NMR spectroscopic experiments of the endophytic fungus Monosporascus eutypoides resulted in the isolation of two new compounds, monosporasols A (1) and B (2), and two known compounds, pestaloficin C (3) and arthrinone (4). Their planar structures and absolute configurations were determined by spectroscopic analysis including high resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (HRESIMS), one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) NMR, and calculated electronic circular dichroism data. Compounds 1-2 were screened in cytotoxic bioassays against HeLa, HCT-8, A549 and MCF-7 cells. Our work highlights the enormous potential of epigenetic manipulation along with the NMR comparison as an effective strategy for unlocking the chemical diversity encoded by fungal genomes.
