Abstract
Endophytic fungi play important roles for host's stress tolerance including invasion by pathogenic microbes. Small molecules are common weapons in the microbe-microbe interactions. Panax notoginseng is a widely used traditional Chinese medicinal plant and harbors many endophytes, some exert functions against pathogens. Here, we report six new compounds named myrothins A-F (1-6) produced by Myrothecium sp. BS-31, an endophyte isolated from P. notoginseng, and their antifungal activities against pathogenic fungi causing host root-rot disease. Their structures were elucidated with analysis of spectroscopic data including 1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS. Myrothins B (2) and E (5) showed the weak activity against Fusarium oxysporum and Phoma herbarum, and myrothins F (6) showed weak activity against F. oxysporum.

Abstract
Six new polyketides named paraverrucsins A-F (1-6) with oxabicyclic and dioxatricyclic skeletons, together with eight known metabolites (7-14), were discovered and isolated from the fermentation medium of Paraphaeosphaeria verruculosa. Paraverrucsin A-C possessed a novel decarboxylated skeleton compared with that of trichocladinols. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectral analysis and DP4+ calculations. Paraverrucsins B/C and D/E were isolated as a mixture for the mutarotation occurred at C-2. Paraverrucsins B/C, D/E, F/trichocladinol B, 8, and 9 displayed antifeedant activities against silkworm larvae, with antifeedant index percentages ranging from 62.5 to 93.0%, at a concentration of 50 μg/cm2. Among them, Paraverrucsins B/C and 9 had EC50 values at 13.9 and 18.2 μg/cm2. Most compounds showed antifungal activities against phytopathogenic fungi with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 16-64 μg/mL. Coculture of P. verruculosa and host plant Dendrobium officinale leads to the enhancement of antifeedant and antiphytopathogenic activities. Compounds 1, 2/3, 4/5, 6/14 were tested for cytotoxicity against five human carcinoma cell lines, HL-60, A549, MCF-7, SW480, and SMMC-7721, while they exhibited selected cytotoxicity against SW480 with inhibition ratios of 32-38% at a concentration of 40 μM.

Abstract
Background Fermentation has been shown to improve the biological properties of plants and herbs. Specifically, fermentation causes decomposition and/or biotransformation of active metabolites into high-value products. Polyacetylenes are a class of polyketides with a pleiotropic profile of bioactivity. Methods Column chromatography was used to isolate compounds, and extensive NMR experiments were used to determine their structures. The transformation of polyacetylene in red ginseng (RG) and the production of cazaldehyde B induced by the extract of RG were identified by TLC and HPLC analyses. Results A new metabolite was isolated from RG fermented by Chaetomium globosum, and this new metabolite can be obtained by the biotransformation of polyacetylene in RG. Panaxytriol was found to exhibit the highest antifungal activity against C. globosum compared with other major ingredients in RG. The fungus C. globosum cultured in RG extract can metabolize panaxytriol to Metabolite A to survive, with no antifungal activity against itself. Metabolites A and B showed obvious inhibition against NO production, with ratios of 42.75 ± 1.60 and 63.95 ± 1.45% at 50 μM, respectively. A higher inhibitory rate on NO production was observed for Metabolite B than for a positive drug. Conclusion Metabolite A is a rare example of natural polyacetylene biotransformation by microbial fermentation. This biotransformation only occurred in fermented RG. The extract of RG also stimulated the production of a new natural product, cazaldehyde B, from C. globosum. The lactone in Metabolite A can decrease the cytotoxicity, which was deemed to be the intrinsic activity of polyacetylene in ginseng.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Sclerostin, a natural hormone made in bone, suppresses bone formation. Sclerostin is also decreased by estrogen. Progesterone, estrogen's menstrual partner, stimulates bone formation. It is unclear whether progesterone influences sclerostin. This study showed that progesterone did not change sclerostin using serum remaining from a randomized progesterone hot flush therapy trial. INTRODUCTION Progesterone and sclerostin are both endogenous hormones acting through osteoblast-origin cells and promote or suppress bone formation, respectively. Estradiol suppresses sclerostin, but progesterone, its menstrual cycle partner hormone, has unclear sclerostin relationships. We postulated that progesterone therapy would influence serum sclerostin levels. METHODS We obtained sclerostin levels for an ethics-approved post hoc analysis. Fasting sclerostin was measured in all remaining sera from a previous 12-week randomized controlled trial (RCT) of oral micronized progesterone (progesterone) for menopausal (> 1 year after last flow) vasomotor symptoms (VMS). Women in the RCT took 300 mg progesterone at bedtime or placebo (1:1) in a trial showing progesterone significantly decreased VMS. RESULTS Participants were healthy menopausal, primarily Caucasian (91.2%) community-dwelling women (± SD), 55.2 ± 4.6 years old with BMI 24.9 ± 2.9 kg/m2. The baseline sclerostin level in 60 women was 28.41 ± 10.47 pmol/L. Baseline sclerostin was not correlated with the run-in VMS score (r = 0.143, P = 0.294). Paired baseline and 12-week RCT data for 52 women showed serum sclerostin levels did not change related to experimental therapy (P = 0.504). Changes in final sclerostin values adjusted for baseline were progesterone (- 1.07 ± 7.96 pmol/L) and placebo (- 2.64 ± 8.70 pmol/L). In observational data (n = 60), baseline sclerostin levels correlated with the General Framingham Cardiovascular (CVD) Risk score (r = - 0.398, P = 0.003) and self-reported health by SF-36 quality of life instrument (QoL, r = - 0.331, P = 0.016). CONCLUSION Physiological oral micronized progesterone did not stimulate nor suppress serum sclerostin levels based on post hoc analysis of RCT data. Exploratory results, however, showed sclerostin negatively correlated with CVD risk and QoL. ClinicalTrials.gov #NCT0146469.

Abstract
The distinctive nature of the endophyte Irpex lacteus, host plant, and the phytopathogen Collectotrichum gloeosporioides resulted in both negative and positive regulation of the production of phytotoxins from Nigrospora oryzae. The coculture of nonhomologous I. lacteus and N. oryzae resulted in a greater number of anti-phytopathogenic metabolites from the dominant endophyte than the coculture of homologous I. lacteus and N. oryzae. The coculture of the phytopathogen N. oryzae and either the nonhomologous (isolation of I. lacteus and N. oryzae from the different plants) or homologous (isolation of I. lacteus and N. oryzae from the same plant) endophyte I. lacteus from different sources indicated that the nonhomologous I. lacteus grew faster than the homologous I. lacteus, and the production of phytotoxic azaphilone from the phytopathogenic N. oryzae decreased due to the inhibition resulting from being cocultured with nonhomologous I. lacteus. On the other hand, the production of phytotoxic azaphilone was promoted by the coculture of two phytopathogens, N. oryzae and C. gloeosporioides. The extract of the host plant, Dendrobium officinale, also increased anti-phytopathogenic metabolite production. Six new phytotoxic azaphilones from N. oryzae, four new tremulane sesquiterpenes from I. lacteus, and a new polyketone were isolated. The endophyte-phytopathogen, phytopathogen-phytopathogen, and endophyte-phytopathogen-host interactions can induce the chemical diversity of novel anti-phytopathogenic metabolites.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the risk factors of prolonged postoperative length of stay (LOS) in patients with gastric cancer. Methods: A retrospective study was performed on 2033 patients who underwent curative surgery in Department of Pancreatic-gastric, Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. Eightieth percentile of postoperative hospital stay for all patients was taken as the cutoff, the patients were divided into the normal group (1 532 patients) and the extended group (501 patients). Logistic regression model was used to determine the risk factors related to prolonged postoperative LOS in gastric cancer. Results: A total of 417 cases with postoperative complications were recruited in extended group. The five highest complications accounting for prolonged LOS were: abdominal infection in 69 cases (13.77%), pleural effusion in 60 cases (11.98%), anastomotic leakage in 43 cases (8.58%), poor wound healing in 34 cases (6.79%), and bleeding in 25 cases (4.99%). Logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR=1.348, P=0.013), surgical procedure (OR=2.712, P<0.001), extent of resection (OR=2.035, P<0.001), degree of incision healing(OR=4.867, P<0.001), and perioperative blood transfusion (OR=1.711, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for prolonged postoperative LOS. Conclusions: The most common complication associated with prolonged postoperative LOS for gastric cancer patients is abdominal infection. Age, surgical procedure, extent of resection, degree of incision healing, and perioperative blood transfusion are the independent risk factors for prolonged postoperative LOS.

Abstract
The ω-hydroxyl-panaxytriol (1) and ω-hydroxyl-dihydropanaxytriol (2)-are rare examples of polyacetylene metabolism by microbial transformation, and these new metabolites (1, 2) from fermented red ginseng (FRG) by solid co-culture induction of two Chaetomium globosum should be the intermediates of biotransformation of panaxylactone (metabolite A). The metabolic pathway of panaxylactone was also exhibited. The ingredients of red ginseng (RG) also induced the production of rare 6/5/5 tricyclic ring spiro-γ-lactone skeleton (3). The ω-hydroxylation of new intermediates (1, 2) decreases cytotoxicity and antifungal activity against C. globosum compared with that of its bioprecursor panaxytriol. Additionally, compounds 1 and 2 indicated obvious inhibition against nitric oxide (NO) production, with ratios of 44.80 ± 1.37 and 23.10 ± 1.00% at 50 μM. 1 has an equivalent inhibition of NO production compared with the positive drug. So, the microbial biotransformation that occurred in FRG fermented by gut C. globosum can change the original bioactivity of polyacetylene, which gave a basis about the metabolic modification of red ginseng by intestinal fungus fermentation.

Abstract
An investigation of a co-culture of the Armillaria sp. and endophytic fungus Epicoccum sp. YUD17002 associated with Gastrodia elata led to the isolation of eight new compounds, including five protoilludane-type sesquiterpenes (1-5) and three aryl esters (6-8), together with six known analogues (9-14). The assignments of their structures were conducted via extensive analyses of the spectroscopic data and comparison of experimental and calculatedelectronic circular dichroism(ECD)data. Notably, these new compounds were not present in the pure culture controls and were only detected in the co-cultures. Compound 4 is the first example of an ent-protoilludane sesquiterpenoid scaffold bearing a five-membered lactone. Compound 6 exhibited moderate in vitro cytotoxic activities against five human cancer cell lines (HL-60, A549, MCF-7, SMMC-7721, and SW480) with IC50 values ranging from 15.80 to 23.03 μM. Moreover, 6 showed weak acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity (IC50 value of 23.85 μM).

Abstract
The investigation of the metabolites from different cocultures of Nigrospora oryzae and Irpex lacteus in solid medium revealed two new squalenes (1 and 2); one new azaphilone (3); two new tremulane sesquiterpenes (4 and 5); and three known compounds, conocenol B (6), conocenol C (7), and 4-(4-dihydroxymethylphenoxy)benzaldehyde (8). The antagonistic relationship was examined by studying metabolite production. The production of compounds 6 and 8 by I. lacteus after the induction of coculture indicated significant selectivity for antifungal activity against phytopathogenic N. oryzae, with MICs of 16 μg/mL; compounds 6 and 8 also exhibited antifungal activities in vivo against Cerasus cerasoides infected by N. oryzae at concentrations of 100 μg/mL. New compounds 2 and 4 showed antifungal activities against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, with MICs of 8 μg/mL, and compound 4 showed antifungal activity against Didymella glomerata with an MIC of 1 μg/mL. These results indicate that the mutually antagonistic relationship in the coculture of the phytopathogen and the endophyte can result in antibiotics that inhibit the phytopathogen and downregulate the production of phytotoxins by phytopathogenic N. oryzae. New compound 5 from I. lacteus showed weak activity against acetylcholinesterase (AChE), with an inhibition ratio of 16% at a concentration of 50 μM.

Abstract
Red ginseng (RG) is one of the most popular herbal medicines and used as a dietary supplement in recent years. The bioactive ingredient in RG can induce the production of novel microbial metabolite from fermented RG. Using the one strain-many compounds strategy, the reinvestigation of the metabolites from Daldinia eschscholzii JC-15 cultured in red ginseng medium led to the isolation of an unprecedented benzopyran-naphthalene hybrid, daldinsin (1) and a new lactone (2). In this research, a new lactone, 8-hydroxylhelicascolide A (2) instead of helicascolide A was produced by the D. eschscholzii JC-15 induced by the red ginseng medium. Compound 1 showed anti-acetylcholinesterase activity with the inhibition ratio of 38.8% at 50 μM. Compound 2 indicated antimicrobial activities against Fusarium Solani, F. oxysporum, and Escherichia coli with MICs at 128 μg/mL. RG is therefore a promising activator in production of novel microbial metabolite.

Abstract
Co-culturing the endophytic fungus Phoma sp. YUD17001 from Gastrodia elata with Armillaria sp. in liquid nutrient medium resulted in the production of five new secondary metabolites, including two phenolic compounds, phexandiols A and B (1 and 2), three aliphatic ester derivatives, phomesters A-C (3-5), and a known fatty acid (6). The structures and absolute configurations of these compounds were elucidated by the interpretation of data from detailed spectroscopic analysis, Mosher's method, and electronic circular dichroism spectra, together with consideration of the biogenetic origins. None of the five new compounds were detected in single-strain cultures under identical fermentation conditions. The results of this work indicated that the production of 1-5 involved a complicated interaction process. None of the new compounds possessed significant cytotoxicity or antimicrobial activities.

Abstract
Objective: To discuss the effect and safety of continuous pumping for home enteral nutrition after esophagectomy. Methods: The current study retrospectively analyzed the esophageal cancer patients who underwent transthoracic esophagectomy between January 2017 and November 2017 at First Department of Thoracic Surgery, Peking University Cancer Hospital and Institute. There were totally 108 cases, including 88 males and 20 females, with an average age of 62 years. The patients were divided into pump feeding group (n=56) and traditional tube feeding group (n=52). The postoperative short-term safety, weight maintenance, enteral nutrition tolerance and nutritional support complete rate of the 2 groups were compared by χ(2) test, Fisher exact test and t test, respectively. Results: Compared with traditional tube feeding group, the patient safety in pumping feeding group was significantly better, with complications within 2 months after discharge were 11/52 and 4/56 respectively (χ(2)=2.393, P=0.035); the weight maintenance was significantly better, the weight loss within 4 weeks after discharge were 3.90 kg and 0.13 kg, respectively (t=7.720, P=0.000); the general enteral complications were significantly lower (26/52 vs. 5/56, χ(2)=22.225, P=0.000), the nutritional support complete rate was significantly higher (23/52 vs. 55/56, χ(2)=39.167, P=0.000). Conclusions: Continuous pump feeding enteral nutrition support after discharge postoperatively could help improve patient safety after discharge, which is better for weight maintenance of the patients. Pump feeding could also enhance tolerability of tube feeding and ensure the effective accomplishment of nutritional support.

Abstract
Five new metabolites belonging to two backbones of pulvilloric acid-type azaphilone and tremulane sesquiterpene were obtained and their structures were determined by spectral analysis. Based on the biogenesis analysis, tremulane sesquiterpenes were obtained from Irpex lacteus by the stimulation of mixed-culture. The antifungal selectivities of metabolites produced by fungus against their co-culture fungus and common pathogens, exhibited competitive interaction of this mix-culture. The tremulane sesquiterpene conocenol B produced by I. lacteus through the induction of Nigrospora oryzae showed selectivity of anti-fungal activity against its co-culture fungus, N. oryzae, with MICs at 16 μg/mL and 128 μg/mL against I. lacteus. The fungus can metabolize these new compounds to inhibit the growth of co-culture fungus while not inhibiting its own growth. Compound 5 was active against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with a ratio of 35% at the concentration of 50 μM.

[PMID: 29966225 PMCID: PMC6100399 DOI: 10.3390/molecules23071577] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2018] [Revised: 06/25/2018] [Accepted: 06/28/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Stachybotrys sp. PH30583 cultured in liquid medium only led to one structure type of novel isochroman dimers. Using the one strain-many compounds strategy, the reinvestigation of the metabolites from Stachybotrys sp. PH30583 cultured in rice solid medium led to the isolation of four triprenyl phenols, including two new bisabosquals and two known phenylspirodrimanes. Nitrobisabosquals A and B (1 and 2) are the first case of pyrrolidone-bisabosquals reported in literature. Totally different compounds were isolated using rice solid medium, compared with those isolated using liquid medium, so that rice solid medium presents a key factor in the production of triprenyl phenols. Compound 1 exhibited cytotoxicity against tumor cells, A-549, HL-60, MCF-7 SMMC-7721, and SW480, as well as weak anticoagulant activity with activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of 32.1 ± 0.17 s (p < 0.05 vs. Con.) at a concentration of 5 mM. Triprenyl phenol metabolites could be used as chemotaxonomic markers for Stachybotrys.

Abstract
Objective: To compare diary-reported trips and Global Positioning System (GPS) recording trips and identify the reasons for the discrepancies between two methods. Methods: The survey was conducted in Jiangning district in Nanjing city during July to September and November to December, 2015. Both the diary records and GPS method were used to investigate the travel behavior of 33 retired adults for 5 consecutive days. The GPS traces were display in Google Earth and then split into trips to compare with the diary records according to time and location. χ(2) test was used to analyze the influence of trip characteristics on misreporting rates of each method. Results: A total of 1 087 trips in the survey can be compared between the diary (n=909) and the GPS method (n=912). 7.3% (79/1 087) of the trips were only recorded by GPS method, and 11.8% (128/1 087) were only reported in the diary. Of the remaining 880 trips recorded by the both methods, 86.7% (763/880) matched each other, while 13.3% (117/880) did not. For the matched trips, the difference between the trip durations recorded by diary and GPS method was 2.0 (quartile was 6.0) minutes and the diary method overestimated about 25.0% trip durations when compared with the GPS method. The accuracy rates were 84.8%(903/1 065) and 86.9%(925/1 065) for diary and GPS method, respectively. Both methods were more likely to misreport the trip under 5 minutes. The misreporting rates of diary method for trips under 5 minutes were 6.8 times higher than trips over 30 minutes (21.7% vs 3.2%). The reporting accuracy was also significantly different among trips by different travel mode (P<0.05) for both methods, diary method had the lowest accuracy in reporting vehicles recorders (69.3%, 133/192), while GPS method was more accuracy in both biking (91.9%, 136/148) and vehicles recorders(89.6%, 172/192). The main reasons for misreporting by diary method were forgetting or unwilling to record and failing to record trips according to travel mode, while forgetting to carry GPS device, bad GPS signal and failing to locate the position were the main reasons for misreporting by GPS method. Conclusion: The majority of the trips reported in diary and GPS method are well consistent with each other. Both of the methods should be used simultaneously in the survey of time-activity pattern to improve the data quality.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the value of (18)F-FDG PET/CT in predicting long-term survival of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC) before initial treatment. Methods: A total of 167 ESCC patients were retrospectively analyzed who underwent surgery between January 2010 and December 2014 in prospective database of Peking University Cancer Hospital Thoracic Surgery Department One, all cases were included according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.The relationship between SUVmax of the primary tumor and patients' age, gender, tumor location, tumor differentiation, tumor regression grade as well as long term survival were compared. Results: The median follow-up time of the 167 cases was 46.9 months(ranging from 30.5 to 86.2 months), with 1 year and 3 years postoperatively being 95.1% and 68.4%, respectively.The SUVmax of the tumor was positively correlated with cT(P<0.01), cN(P=0.033), cTNM(P=0.002) and pTNM(P=0.003)of the tumor.Patients with SUVmax ≤6 obtained a survival significantly better compared with patients with SUVmax>6, the 3 years OS were 83.4 % vs 65.6% (P=0.02) , and DFS were 82.4% vs 55.4%(P=0.006), respectively.The multivariate regression analysis demonstrated that the SUVmax>6 before treatment was the independent prognostic factor for OS (HR=3, 95%CI 1.050-8.568) and DFS (HR=3.971, 95% CI 1.408-11.200) of the ESCC patients. Conclusions: The higher the (18)F-FDG PET/CT SUVmax of the ESCC primary tumor, the poorer survival of the patients. Therefore, SUVmax could be used as an indicator to predict long term survival of the ESCC patients before treatment.

Abstract
Eleven new polyketones named diaporthsins A–K (1–11) were isolated from the fermentation of Diaporthe sp. JC-J7. The chemical structures of compounds (1–11) were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including HRESIMS, 2DNMR, NMR and chemical methods. Compound 11 features an unusual acyclic polyketone–phenolic polyketone hybrid structure that integrates the characteristics of different fungal metabolites (cytosporone and multiplolide). Compound 3 was the only C12-polyketone obtained in this research. These new polyketones showed inhibitory activity on triglycerides (TG) in steatosis hepatocyte L-02 cells. Among them, compound 5 and (4E)-6,7,9-trihydroxydec-4-enoic acid displayed inhibitory activities on TG in steatotic L-02 cells with inhibition ratios of 26% and 21% at concentration of 5 μg mL−1; also, inhibition ratios of 8-O-acetylmultiplolide A and phomopsisporone A at concentration of 5 μg mL−1 were calculated to be about 24% and 16%, respectively, which were equivalent to the antihyperlipidemic activity of lovastatin. The preliminary structure–activity relationship indicated that acetyl at C-8 can increase the antihyperlipidemic activity of multiplolide A and the glycol ester and hydroxyl at C-6 can also increase the corresponding activity of diaporthsin B. Eleven new polyketones were isolated from Diaporthe sp. JC-J7, and some compounds indicated antihyperlipidemic activity.![]()

Abstract
Eight previously undescribed metabolites including of lovastatin analogues, a pair of diastereoisomers, a cyclopentenone dimer, and three polyketides were isolated from the culture of Aspergillus terreus YIM PH30711. Two types of unprecedented skeletons, benzene-cyclopentanone complex and linear polyketide, and an unusual dimer structure were determined by spectral analysis. Compound, 3α-hydroxy-3,5-dihydromonacolin L showed moderate activity against HMG-CoA reductase, with an inhibition ratio of 34% at the concentration of 50 μM, while lovastatin and dihydromonacolin K ethyl ester presented much stronger activity against HMGR with inhibition rates of 85% and 90% at the concentration of 50 μM, respectively. Aspereusin A was active against AChE with a ratio of 62% at the concentration of 50 μM, while its stereomers did not showed obvious inhibition (<10%). The configuration at C-4 of these three diastereoisomers was crucial in the inhibition against AChE, and the β-orientation of substituted methoxyl acrylic acid should be beneficial to the combining with AChE.
