RESUMO
Ganoderma fungi have long been used as a famous traditional medicine and food in country of East Asia. In this work, two new farnesyl phenolic compounds, ganoduriporols A and B (1 and 2), were isolated from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma duripora, and their structures were elucidated using various spectroscopic methods. Anti-inflammatory activities were assayed and evaluated for the two compounds. Ganoduriporols A and B exhibited dose-dependent anti-inflammatory effects in RAW 264.7 cells. Furthermore, ganoduriporol A was demonstrated to inhibit the production of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) through the suppression of COX-2, MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathway in LPS-induced macrophage cells. These results suggested that these two new farnesyl phenolic compounds and the fruiting body of G. duripora could serve as anti-inflammatory agents for medicinal use or functional food.

Four new farnesyl phenolic compounds, ganosinensols A-D (1-4) were isolated from the 95% EtOH extract of the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma sinense. Two pairs of enantiomers, 1/2, and 3/4 were isolated by HPLC using a Daicel Chiralpak IE column. Their structures were elucidated from extensive spectroscopic analyses and comparison with literature data. The absolute configurations of 1-4 were assigned by ECD spectra. All of these isolated compounds showed potent inhibitory activity against LPS-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 macrophages, with IC50 values from 1.15 to 2.26µM.
