RESUMO
One new compound, methyl 3-((1-((2-carbamoylphenyl)amino)-1-oxopropan-2-yl)amino)-3-oxopropanoate (1), along with nine known secondary metabolites (2-10) were isolated and elucidated chemical structures from the methanol extract of the marine-derived fungus Penicillium chrysogenum VH17. Subsequent bioassays showed the antimicrobial and cytotoxic potential of the isolated compounds. All compounds 1-10 displayed antimicrobial effects against at least one tested reference microorganism with MIC values ranging from 32 to 256 µg mL-1. Furthermore, compound 4 exhibited significant cytotoxicity against all tested cell lines HepG2, A549, and MCF7 with IC50 values of 29.43 ± 1.37, 33.02 ± 1.53, and 36.72 ± 1.88 µM, respectively, whereas compound 3 exhibited weak cytotoxicity against MCF7 and HepG2 cell lines with IC50 values of 87.17 ± 6.31 and 97.32 ± 5.66 µM, respectively.
RESUMO
Investigation of an antimicrobial and cytotoxic ethyl acetate extract prepared from solid fermentation of the marine-derived fungus Penicillium citrinum VM6 led to the isolation of eight metabolites (1-8), including one citrinin dimer dicitrinone F (1). Of these, compound 7 was isolated for the first time from the Penicillium genus and compound 1 with carbon-bridged C-7/C-7' linkage is rarely reported. All compounds (1-8) exhibited selective antimicrobial activity against the tested Gram-positive bacteria and Candida albicans with MICs of 32-256 µg/mL. Compounds 1 and 8 exhibited cytotoxicity against all tested cell lines A549, MCF7, MDA-MB-231, Hela, and AGS with IC50 values of 6.7 ± 0.2 to 29.6 ± 2.2 µg/mL, whereas compound 5 had selective cytotoxicity against the MCF7 cell lines with IC50 of 98.1 ± 7.8 µg/mL.

From marine sponge-associated fungus Hamigera avellanea, thirteen secondary metabolites including a pair of undescribed alkaloid enantiomers (+)-hamiavemin A (4S) (+)-1 and (-)-hamiavemin A (4R) (-)-1. Compound 1 was enantiomers resolved by the Chiralpak AS-3 column, using a hexane/isopropanol mobile phase. Their structures were determined based on extensive analyses of HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectra. The absolute configuration of (+)-1 and (-)-1 were assigned tentatively by ECD calculations. Among the isolates, compound 6 showed strongest antibacterial activity against Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, and Candida albicans with the MIC values of 2, 2, 16, 32, 64, and 16â µg/mL, respectively, which were stronger than that of the positive control compound, kanamycin (MIC values ranging from 4 to 128â µg/mL). In addition, compounds 1, 2, and 9 showed moderate cytotoxic activity against three cancer cell lines, HepG2, A549, and MCF-7 with the IC50 values ranging from 55.35±1.70 to 83.02±2.85â µg/mL.
