RESUMEN
A family of pyrazinone metabolites (1-11) were characterized from Staphylococcus xylosus ATCC 29971. Six of them were hydroxylated or methoxylated, which were proposed to be produced by the rare noncatalytic oxa-Michael addition reaction with a water or methanol molecule. It was confirmed that isopropyl alcohol can also be the Michael donor of the reaction. 1-7 and the synthetic precursor 2a showed significant inhibition of breast cancer cell migration.

Ruegeria atlantica and Pseudoalteromonas neustonica are fish gut bacteria that have been isolated from the guts of Pagrus major and Acanthopagrus schlegelii, respectively. A total of 22 compounds (1-22) were isolated from these two bacteria; 16 compounds (1-16) from R. atalantica and 6 compounds (17-22) from P. neustonica. Their chemical structures were elucidated by spectroscopic and spectrometric data analysis and chemical synthesis. Compounds 11 and 13 showed strong collagenase inhibitory activity, with 31.91% and 36.43% at 20 µM, respectively, comparable to or surpassing that of the positive control epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG, 34.66%). Also, compounds 11 and 14 exhibited a mild tyrosinase inhibitory effect of 6.73% and 13.68%, respectively. All of the tested compounds displayed no significant antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis up to 100 µM. The collagenase- and tyrosinase-inhibitory compound 11, cyclo(l-Pro-d-Leu), was found to be stable under heat (50 °C) and UV light (254 and 365 nm) for up to 6 days. These results indicate that compound 11 could be developed into a cosmeceutical with antiaging effects.
