Abstract
Covering: 2012 to 2022Ten-membered lactones (TMLs) are an interesting and diverse group of natural polyketides that are abundant in fungi and, to a lesser extent, in bacteria, marine organisms, and insects. TMLs are known for their ability to exhibit a wide spectrum of biological activity, including phytotoxic, cytotoxic, antifungal, antibacterial, and others. However, the random discovery of these compounds by scientific groups with various interests worldwide has resulted in patchy information about their distribution among different organisms and their biological activity. Therefore, despite more than 60 years of research history, there is still no common understanding of the natural sources of TMLs, their structural type classification, and most characteristic biological activities. The controversial nomenclature, incorrect or erroneous structure elucidation, poor identification of producing organisms, and scattered information on the biological activity of compounds - all these factors have led to the problems with dereplication and the directed search for TMLs. This review consists of two parts: the first part (Section 2) covers 104 natural TMLs, published between 2012 and 2022 (after the publishing of the previous review), and the second part (Section 3) summarizes information about 214 TMLs described during 1964-2022 and as a result highlights the main problems and trends in the study of these intriguing natural products.

Chemical and Biological Review of Endophytic Fungi Associated with Morus sp. (Moraceae) and In Silico Study of Their Antidiabetic Potential. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28041718. [PMID: 36838706 PMCID: PMC9968060 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28041718] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
The chronic nature of diabetes mellitus motivates the quest for novel agents to improve its management. The scarcity and prior uncontrolled utilization of medicinal plants have encouraged researchers to seek new sources of promising compounds. Recently, endophytes have presented as eco-friendly leading sources for bioactive metabolites. This article reviewed the endophytic fungi associated with Morus species and their isolated compounds, in addition to the biological activities tested on their extracts and chemical constituents. The relevant literature was collected from the years 2008-2022 from PubMed and Web of Science databases. Notably, no antidiabetic activity was reported for any of the Morus-associated endophytic fungal extracts or their twenty-one previously isolated compounds. This encouraged us to perform an in silico study on the previously isolated compounds to explore their possible antidiabetic potential. Furthermore, pharmacokinetic and dynamic stability studies were performed on these compounds. Upon molecular docking, Colletotrichalactone A (14) showed a promising antidiabetic activity due to the inhibition of the α-amylase local target and the human sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (hSGT2) systemic target with safe pharmacokinetic features. These results provide an in silico interpretation of the possible anti-diabetic potential of Morus endophytic metabolites, yet further study is required.

Abstract
Medicine food homology (MFH) substances not only provide essential nutrients as food but also have corresponding factors that can prevent and help treat nutritional imbalances, chronic disease, and other related issues. Endophytic fungi associated with plants have potential for use in drug discovery and food therapy. However, the endophytic fungal metabolites from MFH plants and their effects have been overlooked. Therefore, this review focuses on the various biological activities of 108 new metabolites isolated from 53 MFH-derived endophytic fungi. The paper explores the potential nutritional and medicinal value of metabolites of MFH-derived endophytic fungi for food and medical applications. This research is important for the future development of effective, safe, and nontoxic therapeutic nutraceuticals for the prevention and treatment of human diseases.

Abstract
Endophytic fungi are microorganisms that exist almost ubiquitously inside the various tissues of living plants where they act as an important reservoir of diverse bioactive compounds. Recently, endophytic fungi have drawn tremendous attention from researchers; their isolation, culture, purification, and characterization have revealed the presence of around 200 important and diverse compounds including anticancer agents, antibiotics, antifungals, antivirals, immunosuppressants, and antimycotics. Many of these anticancer compounds, such as paclitaxel, camptothecin, vinblastine, vincristine, podophyllotoxin, and their derivatives, are currently being used clinically for the treatment of various cancers (e.g., ovarian, breast, prostate, lung cancers, and leukemias). By increasing the yield of specific compounds with genetic engineering and other biotechnologies, endophytic fungi could be a promising, prolific source of anticancer drugs. In the future, compounds derived from endophytic fungi could increase treatment availability and cost effectiveness. This comprehensive review includes the putative anticancer compounds from plant-derived endophytic fungi discovered from 1990 to 2020 with their source endophytic fungi and host plants as well as their antitumor activity against various cell lines.

New diphenyl ethers from a fungus Epicoccum sorghinum L28 and their antifungal activity against phytopathogens. Bioorg Chem 2021; 115:105232. [PMID: 34371373 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2021.105232] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2021] [Revised: 06/20/2021] [Accepted: 07/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
The strategy "IEMAHC" (Induction of Endophyte Metabolism by Adding Host Components) was applied to the fermentation of the endophytic fungus Epicoccum sorghinum L28 from Myoporum bontioides by introducing guaiol, an ingredient of M. bontioides, into the cultivation medium, which resulted in the purification of nine new diphenyl ethers, epicoccethers A-I (1-9). Their structures were determined by overall spectroscopic analysis. HPLC-MS analysis revealed that compounds 5-7 were products generated by induction of guaiol. Compounds 6 and 7 are the first members containing an ester moiety formed by the natural long-chain fatty acid and the hydroxyl group in the phenylmethanol unit of the diphenyl ether class. The antifungal activities of compounds 1, 2, and 4-7 against Fusarium oxysporum were 1, 1, 2, 1, 2 and 4 times as high as those of the positive control triadimefon, respectively. Compounds 4 and 5 showed 1.6 times the antifungal activities of triadimefon towards Colletotrichum musae.
