ABSTRACT
In this study, a marine medicinal brown alga Sargassum cristaefolium-derived fungal strain Xylaria acuta SC1019 was isolated and identified. Column chromatography of the extracts from liquid- and solid-fermented products of the fungal strain was carried out, and led to the isolation of twenty-one compounds. Their structures were characterized by spectroscopic analysis, and the absolute configurations were further established by single X-ray diffraction analysis or modified Mosher's method as nine previously undescribed compounds, namely xylarilactones A-C (1-3), ent-gedebic acid 8-O-α-D-glucopyranoside (4), 5R-hydroxylmethylmellein 11-O-α-D-glucopyranoside (5), ent-hymatoxin E 16-O-α-D-mannopyranoside (6), 19,20-epoxycytochalasin S (7), 19,20-epoxycytochalasin T (8), and (2R)-butylitaconic acid (9), along with twelve known compounds 10-21. All the isolates were subjected to anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic assays. Compounds 1, 5, 7, 10, and 17 showed moderate nitric oxide production inhibitory activities in lipopolysaccharide-activated BV-2 microglial cells with IC50 values of 19.55 ± 0.35, 16.10 ± 0.57, 15.20 ± 0.87, 11.76 ± 0.49, and 11.30 ± 0.32 µM, respectively, as compared to curcumin (IC50 = 2.69 ± 0.34 µM) without any significant cytotoxicity. Compounds 7, 8, and 21 displayed potent anti-angiogenic activities by suppressing the growth of human endothelial progenitor cells with IC50 values of 0.44 ± 0.01, 0.47 ± 0.03, and 0.53 ± 0.01 µM, respectively, as compared to sorafenib (IC50 = 5.50 ± 1.50 µM).

The fungus Xylaria sp. Z184, harvested from the leaves of Fallopia convolvulus (L.) Á. Löve, has been isolated for the first time. Chemical investigation on the methanol extract of the culture broth of the titles strain led to the discovery of three new pyranone derivatives, called fallopiaxylaresters A-C (1-3), and a new bisabolane-type sesquiterpenoid, named fallopiaxylarol A (4), along with the first complete set of spectroscopic data for the previously reported pestalotiopyrone M (5). Known pyranone derivatives (6-11), sesquiterpenoids (12-14), isocoumarin derivatives (15-17), and an aromatic allenic ether (18) were also co-isolated in this study. All new structures were elucidated by the interpretation of HRESIMS, 1D, 2D NMR spectroscopy, and quantum chemical computation approach. The in vitro antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and α-glucosidase-inhibitory activities of the selected compounds and the crude extract were evaluated. The extract was shown to inhibit nitric oxide (NO) production induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in murine RAW264.7 macrophage cells, with an inhibition rate of 77.28 ± 0.82% at a concentration of 50 µg/mL. The compounds 5, 7, and 8 displayed weak antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus areus subsp. aureus at a concentration of 100 µM.

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.

Two new quinoline alkaloids with an α, ß-unsaturated amide side chain, xylarinines A and B (1 and 2), were isolated from the ethyl acetate extracts of Xylaria longipes solid fermentation. The structures of these were primarily determined though NMR and HRESIMS data analysis. The absolute configuration of compound 1 was assigned using experimental and calculated ECD data. The neuroprotective effects of compounds 1 and 2 against glutamate-induced damage in PC12 cells were evaluated in vitro bioassay. The results demonstrated that both compounds significantly improved cell viability, inhibited apoptosis, decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) levels, and reduced intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. These findings suggested that these mechanisms contribute to the neuroprotective effects of the compounds.

The Arctic-derived fungus Eutypella sp. D-1 can produce numerous secondary metabolites, and some compounds exhibit excellent biological activity. Seven pimarane-type diterpenes, including three new compounds eutypellenone F (1), libertellenone Y (2), and libertellenone Z (3), and four known compounds (4-7), were isolated from fermentation broth of Eutypella sp. D-1 by the OSMAC strategy of adding ethanol as a promoter in the culture medium. Compound 2 has a rare tetrahydrofuran-fused pimarane diterpene skeleton. The anti-inflammatory activity of all compounds was evaluated. Compounds 3-6 showed a significant inhibitory effect on cell NO release at 10 µmol/L by in vitro experiments, of which 3-5 had inhibitory rates over 60% on nitric oxide (NO) release. Subsequently, the anti-inflammatory activity of 3-5 was evaluated based on a zebrafish model, and the results showed that 3 had a significant inhibitory effect on inflammatory cells migration at 40 µmol/L, while 4 and 5 had a significant inhibitory effect at 20 µmol/L. Moreover, compounds 3-5 have the same conjugated double bond structure, which may be an important group for these compounds to exert anti-inflammatory activity.

A chemical investigation of the Arctic-derived fungus Eutypella sp. D-1 based on the OSMAC (one strain many compounds) approach resulted in the isolation of five cytosporin polyketides (compounds 1-3 and 11-12) from rice medium and eight cytosporins (compounds 2 and 4-11) from solid defined medium. The structures of the seven new compounds, eutypelleudesmane A (1), cytosporin Y (2), cytosporin Z (3), cytosporin Y1 (4), cytosporin Y2 (5), cytosporin Y3 (6), and cytosporin E1 (7), were elucidated by analyzing their detailed spectroscopic data. Structurally, cytosporin Y1 (4) may be a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of the isolated cytosporins, rather than an end product. Compound 1 contained a unique skeleton formed by the ester linkage of two moieties, cytosporin F (12) and the eudesmane-type sesquiterpene dihydroalanto glycol. Additionally, the occurrence of cyclic carbonate moieties in compounds 6 and 7 was found to be rare in nature. The antibacterial, immunosuppressive, and cytotoxic activities of all compounds derived from Eutypella sp. D-1 were evaluated. Unfortunately, only compounds 3, 6, 8, and 10-11 displayed immunosuppressive activity, with inhibitory rates of 62.9%, 59.5%, 67.8%, 55.8%, and 68.7%, respectively, at a concentration of 5 µg/mL.

In the process of discovering more neural-system-related bioactive compounds from Xylaria nigripes, xylariamino acid A (1), a new amino acid derivative, and a new isovaleric acid phenethyl ester (2) were isolated and identified. Their structures and absolute configurations were determined by analyses of IR, HRESIMS, NMR spectroscopic data, and gauge-independent atomic orbital (GIAO) NMR calculation, as well as electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their neuroprotective effects against damage to PC12 cells by oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD). Compounds 1 and 2 can increase the viability of OGD-induced PC12 cells at all tested concentrations. Moreover, compound 2 (1 µmol L-1) can significantly reduce the percentage of apoptotic cells.

MS/MS-based molecular networking strain prioritization led to the discovery of a group of cyclic depsipeptides from an endolichenic Xylaria sp. The main component, xylaroamide A (1), was obtained by LC-MS-guided isolation. The planar structure of compound 1 was elucidated via 1D and 2D NMR, as well as MS/MS data. The configurations were fully determined by the combination of advanced Marfey's analysis, partial hydrolysis, Mosher's reaction, and GIAO NMR calculation based on a restricted conformational search. A plausible biosynthetic pathway for xylaroamide A (1) involving a rare trans-acting N-methyltransferase is proposed based on bioinformatics analysis. Xylaroamide A (1) exhibited inhibitory activity against cancer cell lines BT-549 and RKO with IC50 values of 2.5 and 9.5 µM, respectively.

The investigation of the metabolites from the endophytic fungus Xylaria sp. YM 311647 in solid fermentation resulted in the isolation of six undescribed compounds, namely xylarioxides A-F, respectively. These included one eremophilane sesquiterpene, three guaiane sesquiterpene glycosides, and two ergostane glycosides. The structures of the compounds were determined by extensive analyses of spectroscopic data, including 1D and 2D NMR, as well as HRESIMS data. The stereochemistry of xylarioxide A was confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis. All of the isolated compounds were assayed for their antifungal activities against seven phytopathogenic fungi and two human pathogenic fungi. Among them, xylarioxides A, E and F showed potent activities against the tested phytopathogens. Particularly, xylarioxide E exhibited the highest activity against Gibberella saubinetii, Curvularia lunata, and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides with MIC values of 4, 4, and 8 µg/mL, respectively, which were comparable to the positive control of nystatin. Interestingly, guaiane sesquiterpene glycosides have been rarely reported from fungal sources. Additionally, xylarioxide E represented an unusual naturally occurring 3,4-seco-steroidal glycoside with a seven-membered lactone in ring A.

Induratia spp. fungi have been poorly evaluated for their non-volatile secondary metabolites. In the present work, we evaluated the effects of non-volatile secondary metabolites released into the culture medium by Induratia spp. upon toxic alterations induced by Bothrops spp. venoms. B. atrox venom phospholipase was inhibited by Induratia spp. around 12 and 16%. The extracts of the two strains inhibited 12-25% of the hemolysis induced by B.moojeni venom. Thrombolysis was inhibited by 30-60% by the compounds present in both extracts. The coagulation induced by B. moojeni venom was prolonged by 26-41 s by the action of the extracts of I. coffeana. The fungal extracts did not exert any cytotoxic effect, nor did they induce any alteration in the other evaluated substrates show the potential use of non-volatile metabolites produced by the fungi evaluated as enzyme modulators, especially for proteases with a fundamental role in human hemostasis.
