Abstract
The oceans are rich in diverse microorganisms, animals, and plants. This vast biological complexity is a major source of unique secondary metabolites. In particular, marine fungi are a promising source of compounds with unique structures and potent antibacterial properties. Over the last decade, substantial progress has been made to identify these valuable antibacterial agents. This review summarizes the chemical structures and antibacterial activities of 223 compounds identified between 2012 and 2023. These compounds, effective against various bacteria including drug-resistant strains such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, exhibit strong potential as antibacterial therapeutics. The review also highlights the relevant challenges in transitioning from drug discovery to product commercialization. Emerging technologies such as metagenomics and synthetic biology are proposed as viable solutions. This paper sets the stage for further research on antibacterial compounds derived from marine fungi and advocates a multidisciplinary approach to combat drug-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
Aspergillus have been proven to be excellent resources for new natural products. During our systematic biodiversifying new compounds from marine derived fungi, one novel compound, asperbrunneo acid (1), along with seven bistetrahydroxanthone analogues, secalonic acid D (2), secalonic acid F (3), secalonic acid F1 (4), secalonic acid H (5), penicillixanthone A (6), chrysoxanthone C (7), and asperdichrome (8), one ketodivinyllactonic steroid, herbarulide (9), as well as one tyrosine-derived compound, aspergillusol A (10), were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus brunneoviolaceus MF180246. These structures were elucidated by HRMS, 1 D and 2 D NMR analysis. Compound 1 possessed the first reported new carbon skeleton natural product. Compounds 1, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 showed antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus with minimum inhibitory concentration values of 200, 25, 50, 6.25, 50, and 25 µg/ml, respectively.

Secondary metabolites from marine organisms are diverse in structure and function. Marine Aspergillus is an important source of bioactive natural products. We reviewed the structures and antimicrobial activities of compounds isolated from different marine Aspergillus over the past two years (January 2021-March 2023). Ninety-eight compounds derived from Aspergillus species were described. The chemical diversity and antimicrobial activities of these metabolites will provide a large number of promising lead compounds for the development of antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
Microorganisms still remain the main hotspots in the global drug discovery avenue. In particular, fungi are highly prolific producers of vast structurally diverse specialized secondary metabolites, which have displayed a myriad of biomedical potentials. Intriguingly, isocoumarins is one distinctive class of fungal natural products polyketides, which demonstrated numerous remarkable biological and pharmacological activities. This review article provides a comprehensive state-of-the-art over the period 2000-2022 about the discovery, isolation, classifications, and therapeutic potentials of isocoumarins exclusively reported from fungi. Indeed, a comprehensive list of 351 structurally diverse isocoumarins were documented and classified according to their fungal sources [16 order/28 family/55 genera] where they have been originally discovered along with their reported pharmacological activities wherever applicable. Also, recent insights around their proposed and experimentally proven biosynthetic pathways are also briefly discussed.

Abstract
Covering: January to December 2021This review covers the literature published in 2021 for marine natural products (MNPs), with 736 citations (724 for the period January to December 2021) referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms. The emphasis is on new compounds (1425 in 416 papers for 2021), together with the relevant biological activities, source organisms and country of origin. Pertinent reviews, biosynthetic studies, first syntheses, and syntheses that led to the revision of structures or stereochemistries, have been included. An analysis of the number of authors, their affiliations, domestic and international collection locations, focus of MNP studies, citation metrics and journal choices is discussed.

Marine Compounds with Anti-Candida sp. Activity: A Promised “Land” for New Antifungals. J Fungi (Basel) 2022; 8:jof8070669.

Abstract
Candida albicans is still the major yeast causing human fungal infections. Nevertheless, in the last decades, non-Candida albicans Candida species (NCACs) (e.g., Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, and Candida parapsilosis) have been increasingly linked to Candida sp. infections, mainly in immunocompromised and hospitalized patients. The escalade of antifungal resistance among Candida sp. demands broadly effective and cost-efficient therapeutic strategies to treat candidiasis. Marine environments have shown to be a rich source of a plethora of natural compounds with substantial antimicrobial bioactivities, even against resistant pathogens, such as Candida sp. This short review intends to briefly summarize the most recent marine compounds that have evidenced anti-Candida sp. activity. Here, we show that the number of compounds discovered in the last years with antifungal activity is growing. These drugs have a good potential to be used for the treatment of candidiasis, but disappointedly the reports have devoted a high focus on C. albicans, neglecting the NCACs, highlighting the need to perform outspreading studies in the near future.

Mar Drugs 2022; 20:361. [PMID: 35736164 PMCID: PMC9229493 DOI: 10.3390/md20060361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2022] [Revised: 05/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Six new isocoumarin derivative talaromarins A-F (1-6), along with 17 known analogues (7-23), were isolated from the mangrove-derived fungus Talaromyces flavus (Eurotiales: Trichocomaceae) TGGP35. Their structures were identified by detailed IR, UV, 1D/2D NMR and HR-ESI-MS spectra. The absolute configurations of new compounds were determined by the modified Mosher's method and a comparison of their CD spectra with dihydroisocoumarins described in the literature. The antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-phytopathogenic and inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase of all the isolated compounds were tested. Compounds 6-11, 17-19 and 21-22 showed similar or better antioxidant activity than the IC50 values ranging from 0.009 to 0.27 mM, compared with the positive control trolox (IC50 = 0.29 mM). Compounds 10, 18, 21 and 23 exhibited strong inhibitory activities against α-glucosidase with IC50 values ranging from 0.10 to 0.62 mM, while the positive control acarbose had an IC50 value of 0.5 mM. All compounds showed no antibacterial or anti-phytopathogenic activity at the concentrations of 50 μg/mL and 1 mg/mL, respectively. These results indicated that isocoumarins will be useful to developing antioxidants and as diabetes control agents.

Seven new compounds, namely talaromanloid A (1), talaromydene (2), 10-hydroxy-8-demethyltalaromydine and 11-hydroxy-8-demethyltalaromydine (3 and 4), talaromylectone (5), and ditalaromylectones A and B (6 and 7), together with seven known compounds were identified from a marine-derived fungus, Talaromyces mangshanicus BTBU20211089, which was isolated from a sediment sample collected from the South China Sea. Their chemical structures were determined using spectroscopic data, including HRESIMS, 1D, and 2D NMR techniques. The absolute configurations of 1 and 2 were elucidated by comparing experimental and calculated ECD spectra. Compounds 1, 2, 6, and 7 are new compounds possessing a novel carbon skeleton. Compound 6 is a dimeric molecule of 3 and 9. Compound 7 shared a unique structure of the cyclized dimer of 3 and 4. All the compounds were tested for their bioactivities against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans.
