Abstract
Eleven new chlorinated cyclopentene derivatives, periconsins A-K, and a new diketopiperazine, periconzin, were found from Periconia sp. cultured in three different media by the one strain many compounds strategy. Additionally, the C-1 methyl hydroxylation of chlorinated cyclopentene was found for the first time in the host plant culture. The structures were identified by extensive spectroscopic analyses, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and 13C NMR calculations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 3, 5, 7-11, 15, and 17 showed significant antifungal activities against the plant pathogens Periconia sp., Altemaria sp., and Nigrospora oryzae with MICs ≤2 μg/mL. Other compounds had antifungal activities with MICs ≤8 μg/mL. The antifungal structure-activity relationship of these metabolites indicated that the chlorine at C-5 can increase the activity, but the hydroxy group at C-1 lowered the activity.

Abstract
Seven previously undescribed compounds were isolated from the endophytic fungus Annulohypoxylon sp. KYG-19 (family Xylariaceae), including three gymnomitrane-type sesquiterpenes xylariacinols A, B, and D (1, 2, and 4), one bisabolane-type sesquiterpene annulnol F (6), one phenol derivative lariacinol G (7), and two polyhydroxy compounds hypoxylonols H and I (8 and 9), together with two known gymnomitrane-type sesquiterpenes emericellin A (3) and 3-gymnomitren-15-ol (5). The assignments of their structures was determined by extensive spectroscopic and spectrometric analysis, acetonide analysis, Mosher's method, and X-ray crystallography. In addition, the structures of emericellins A and B, which were reported to possess an unprecedented tricyclo[4, 4, 2, 1]hendecane scaffold, were revised by comparing their spectroscopic data with those of 1 and 3. Compounds 1 and 4 exhibited antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli with minimum inhibitory concentrations of 4 and 2 μg/mL, respectively.

Abstract
Alternative splicing (AS) regulates mRNAs at the post-transcriptional level to affect both their amounts and the protein function. However, little is known about the roles of AS in regulation of biosynthesis of amino acids, flavonoids, and volatile compounds in tea plants. In this study, we used Iso-seq and transcriptome deep sequencing (RNA-seq) to identify AS events, and analyzed the expression of respective mRNAs in tea plants under drought (DS), heat stress (HS), and their combination (HD). By RT-PCR, we validated the AS events in nine genes involved in the biosynthesis of amino acids and flavonoids. The genes accumulating AS transcripts under DS, HS, and HD conditions included those encoding for anthocyanidin reductase (ANR), dihydrofavonol-4-reductase-like (DFRA), and chalcone isomerase (CHI). Similarly, genes directly or indirectly involved in the biosynthesis of volatile compounds such as lipoxygenase (LOX), terpenoid/terpene synthase (TPS), and 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase (DXR) also had AS events. Our study revealed that AS might specifically regulate the biosynthesis of amino acids in tea plants under stressful conditions. Moreover, we suggest that the AS events within the ANR and DFRA transcripts might play an important role in the regulation of flavonoid biosynthesis under DS, HS, and HD conditions. This study improved our understanding of the genetic drivers of the changes in the content of bioactive ingredients of tea plants subjected to abiotic stresses.

Abstract
A talented endophytic bacteria strain YINM00001, which showed strong antimicrobial activity and multiple antibiotic resistances, was isolated from a Chinese medicinal herb Peperomia dindygulensis Miq. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that strain was closely related to Streptomyces anulatus NRRL B-2000T (99.93%). The complete genome of strain YINM00001 was sequenced. The RAxML phylogenomic tree also revealed that strain YINM00001 was steadily clustered on a branch with strain Streptomyces anulatus NRRL B-2000T under the 100 bootstrap values. The complete genome of strain YINM00001 consists of an 8,372,992 bp linear chromosome (71.72 mol% GC content) and a 317,781 bp circular plasmid (69.14 mol% GC content). Genome mining and OSMAC approach were carried out to investigate the biosynthetic potential of producing secondary metabolites. Fifty-two putative biosynthetic gene clusters of secondary metabolites were found, including the putative cycloheximide, dinactin, warkmycin, and anthracimycin biosynthetic gene clusters which consist with the strong antifungal and antibacterial activities exhibited by strain YINM00001. Two new compounds, peperodione (1) and peperophthalene (2), and 17 known compounds were isolated from different fermentation broth. Large amounts and high diversity of antimicrobial and/or anticancer compounds cycloheximide, dinactin, anthracimycin, and their analogs had been found as predicted before, which highlights strain YINM00001 as an ideal candidate for further biosynthetic studies and production improvement of these valuable compounds. Meanwhile, several gene clusters that were highly conserved in several sequenced actinomycetes but significantly different from known gene clusters might be silent under proceeding fermentation conditions. Further studies, such as heterologous expression and genetic modification, are needed to explore more novel compounds from this talented endophytic Streptomyces strain.

Abstract
A new globoscinic acid derivative, aspertubin A (1) along with four known compounds, were obtained from the co-culture of Aspergillus tubingensis S1120 with red ginseng. The chemical structures of compounds were characterized by using spectroscopic methods, the calculated and experimental electronic circular dichroism. Panaxytriol (2) from red ginseng, and asperic acid (4) showed significant antifeedant effect with the antifeedant rates of 75 % and 80 % at the concentrations of 50 μg/cm2 . Monomeric carviolin (3) and asperazine (5) displayed weak attractant activity on silkworm. All compounds were assayed for antifungal activities against phytopathogens A. tubingensis, Nigrospora oryzae and Phoma herbarum and the results indicated that autotoxic aspertubin A (1) and panaxytriol (2) possessed selective inhibition against A. tubingensis with MIC values at 8 μg/mL. The co-culture extract showed higher antifeedant and antifungal activities against P. herbarum than those of monoculture of A. tubingensis in ordinary medium. So the medicinal plant and endophyte showed synergistic effect on the plant disease resistance by active compounds from the coculture of A. tubingensis S1120 and red ginseng.

Abstract
The investigation of the metabolites from endophyte Irpex lacteus cultured in host "tian ma" (Gastrodia elata) revealed five new tremulane sesquiterpenes (1-5), and a new tetrahydrofuran derivative (6). Compound 1 was the first tremulane glucoside, and 6 possessed a rare tetrahydropyran-tetrahydrofuran scaffold. Main metabolite (2,3-dihydroxydodacane-4,7-dione, 14) from I. lacteus showed significant selectivity for antifungal activity against phytopathogen and endophytes associated with G. elata rather than against Armillaria sp. providing nutrition for the host G. elata. 14 accounted for 27.4% of isolated compounds from G. elata medium, and 69.3% by co-culturing with Armillaria sp. So the I. lacteus tended to promote the growth of Armillaria sp. in co-culture by producing 2,3-dihydroxydodacane-4,7-dione (14) to selective inhibit the phytopathogen and endophyte existed in host G. elata for the benefit of G. elata-Armillaria symbiosis. And the results were in accord with the real environment of G. elata depending on the nutrition of Armillaria. Some metabolites had anti-fungal activities against phytopathogens of G. elata with MICs ≤8 μg/mL.

Abstract
Eight new compounds (1-8) were discovered from Trichoderma harzianum associated with edible mushroom by the one strain many compounds (OSMAC) strategy. Triharzianin A (1) is the first naturally scaffold characterized by a C13-prostaglandin skeleton. The configurations of 1-3, and 5 were determined by the Mosher's method, experimental and calculated ECD spectra, and plausible biosynthesis of stereospecific epoxidation. Most compounds indicated obvious feeding attractant activities to silkworm with attraction rates at 30-90%. Compound 7 showed anti-acetylcholinesterase (anti-AChE) activity with a ratio of 29% at a concentration of 50 μM for insecticidal potential. So 2,3-dialkylchromone (7) had potential of chemical entrapment and killing of insects. Compounds 2, 3 and 7-11 showed antifungal activities against Aspergillus fumigates, and Trichoderma sp. from mushroom with MICs ≤ 300 μM. The four fermentation extracts also indicated obvious feeding attractant activities to silkworm for the activities brought by active metabolites from T. harzianum. The material base of biocontrol induced by the interaction of host-fungal symbiont can be investigated by the antifungal metabolites against pathogen fungi.

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.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2020; 259:112935. [PMID: 32387235 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2020.112935] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2019] [Revised: 04/27/2020] [Accepted: 04/28/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE "Curcumae Radix", the dried rhizomes of Curcuma kwangsiensis documented in Chinese pharmacopoeia, has been traditionally used for the treatment of inflammatory and pain diseases, such as jaundice and red urine, cleaning the heart-fire and depression, arthralgia, and dysmenorrhea. However, according to literature surveys, anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive studies of C. kwangsiensis have been seldom reported so far. AIM OF THE STUDY The current study focuses on the anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects of C. kwangsiensis and discovering the bioactive compounds for its traditional usages both in vivo and in vitro, which could provide scientific justification about its traditional use. MATERIAL AND METHODS The anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive assays of various layers (ME, EA, AQS) from C. kwangsiensis were achieved by carrageenan-induced paw edema and acetic acid-induced writhing animal models, respectively. The most bioactive part, EA layer was further phytochemically investigated by multiple step chromatography techniques. The structures of these isolates were unambiguously elucidated by means of extensive spectroscopic and chemical methods, and comparison with corresponding data of the reported literature. Four major sesquiterpenoids (4, 6, 14, and 15) were achieved for their anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive assays by the two aforementioned animal models in vivo. All the isolated compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects via detecting inflammatory mediator releases (COX-2, IL-1β, and TNF-α) in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells induced by LPS. RESULTS The ME and EA layers significantly alleviated the paw edema caused by carrageenan and decreased the number of writhes induced by acetic acid at the dose of 200 and/or 100 mg/kg in comparison to the control group (p < 0.01/0.05), and the EA layer exhibited better activity than that of ME layer. Subsequent phytochemical investigation on EA layer of C. kwangsiensis exhibited that three new terpenoid compounds (1-3), identified as (12Z,14R)-7β-hydroxylabda-8(17),12-diene-14,15,16-triol (1), (12Z,14S)- 7β-hydroxlabda-8(17),12-diene-14,15,16-triol (2), and (4S)-hydroxy-(8)-methoxy-(5S)-(H)-guaia1(10),7(11)-dien-12,8-olide (3), together with twenty-two known analogs were isolated. Furthermore, four major sesquiterpenoids (4, 6, 14, and 15) significantly relieved the paw edema and number of writhes at 100 and/or 50 mg/kg (p < 0.05/0.01). Likewise, the majority of sesqui- and diterpenoids isolated could remarkably inhibited the secretion of inflammatory mediators (COX-2, IL-1β, and TNF-α) in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages cells at the concentration of 20 μg/mL, comparable to DXM used as the positive control. All the results suggested that EA layer from C. kwangsiensis possessed the anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive activities, and these sesqui- and diterpenoids could be the effective constituents responsible for relieving inflammation. CONCLUSION The present studies undoubtedly determined the anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive material basis of C. kwangsiensis, including the EA layer and its precise components, which presented equivalent or better anti-inflammatory effects than that of positive control (ASP/DXM) in vivo and in vitro. These results not only would account for scientific knowledge for traditional use of C. kwangsiensis, but also provide credible theoretical foundation for the further development of anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive agents.
