RESUMO
In this study, four undescribed bibenzyl derivatives (1-4), together with seven known compounds (5-11) were isolated from the aerial parts of Dendrobium officinale. Their chemical structures were determined to be (7'S,8'S) -9''-acetyldendrocandin U (1), (7'S,8'S) -4'-methoxydendrocandin T (2), (7'R,8'S) -dendrocandin B (3), (1S,2R) -5'''-methoxydendrofindlaphenol C (4) by analyzing of the spectroscopic data including HR-ESI-MS, 1D-, and 2D-NMR spectra. The absolute configurations of compounds 1-4 were determined by the electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Compounds 1-3, 5, 10 and 11 inhibited α-glucosidase with the IC50 values ranging from 56.3 to 165.3 µM, compounds 1-3, 5, 7-10 inhibited α-amylase with the IC50 values ranging from 65.2 to 177.6 µM.
RESUMO
Aphanapolystachones A-C (1-3), three undescribed sesquiterpene-diterpene heterodimers, were obtained from the fruits of Aphanamixis polystachya. Their structures and absolute configurations were identified by extensive analysis of HR-ESI-MS, NMR, experimental and TD-DFT calculated ECD spectra. The biosynthetic pathway of them was also proposed, which is produced by key intermolecular Diels-Alder [4 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction between a guaiane sesquiterpene and an acyclic diterpene. Compounds 1-3 inhibited NO production in LPS activated RAW 264.7 cells with the IC50 values of 1.7 ± 0.2, 3.0 ± 0.3, 5.3 ± 0.3 µM, respectively, lower than that of the positive control L-NMMA (31.5 ± 2.6 µM). In addition, compounds 1-3 significantly reduced IL-6 secretion at diluted concentration of 0.4 µM.

Chemical study on marine sponge-derivated fungus Aspergillus nidulans resulted in the isolation of seven depsidones (1-7) and two macrocyclic peptides (8 and 9). Their chemical structures were elucidated by extensive analyses of HRESIMS and NMR spectral data, as well as comparison with the literature. Compoundâ 1 was an undescribed depsidone. All compounds exhibited significant antimicrobial activity (MICs: 2-128â µg/mL) towards at least one of seven microbial strains, including Bacillus cereus, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enterica, and Candida albicans. Of these, chlorinated depsidones (1-3, and 5) displayed potential antimicrobial activity. Nidulin (2) possessed good activity against tested strains except for S. enterica with MIC values in range of 2-16â µg/mL. Interestingly, undescribed depsidone 1 was selectively bioactive on the Gram-positive bacteria (MICs: 2-4â µg/mL) and yeast (MIC: 8â µg/mL) but inactivity on the Gram-negative bacteria (MICs: >256â µg/mL). Macrocyclic peptides, 8 and 9, displayed modest activity against E. faecalis strain with MIC values of 32 and 128â µg/mL, respectively.

Phytochemical study on the leaves of Amentotaxus yunnanensis led to the isolation of seventeen phenolic compounds including sixteen neolignans and lignans, and one flavone glycoside. Three among the isolates were previously unreported neolignans and named as amenyunnaosides A-C, respectively. Their structures were elucidated by extensive analyses of HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR, and ECD spectra. The isolated neolignans potentially inhibited NO production in LPS-activated RAW264.7 cells with their IC50 values ranging from 11.05 to 44.07â µM, compared to that of the positive control compound, dexamethasone, IC50 value of 16.93â µM. Additionally, amenyunnaoside A dose-dependently reduced production of IL-6 and COX-2 but did not effect to that of TNF-α at concentrations of 0.8, 4, and 20â µM.

Three new muurolane type sesquiterpene glycosides, named balanoindicosides A - C (1 - 3), were isolated from the whole plant of Balanophora fungosa subsp. indica using various chromatographic methods. Their structures were determined by extensive analysis of HR-ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopy. The stereochemistry of muurolane sesquiterpene backbone was demonstrated by NOESY analysis. Configuration of C-12 in compounds 2 and 3 could be distinguished by chemical shift value of C-14. Compounds 1-3 exhibited weak cytotoxic activity towards HepG-2, HL-60, LU-1, and MCF-7 cell lines.
