Abstract
In this overview the literature on benzo[j]fluoranthene-derived toxins produced by fungi is discussed with a view on isolation, structure, biological activities, biosynthesis, and total syntheses of the natural products. This class of compounds consists until now of 33 naturally occurring compounds, where 25 are chiral and eight contain no stereogenic centers. The relative configuration of xylarenol was clarified by comparison of experimental and calculated ECD spectra, and absolute configurations of four toxins were corrected. The compounds show various biological activities including antibiotic and cytotoxic properties.

Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1172629. [PMID: 37396354 PMCID: PMC10307966 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1172629] [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: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Gannan navel orange is a famous brand in China but the isolation of its endophytic fungi was rarely reported. In this study, a total of 54 strains of endophytic fungi were successfully isolated from the pulp, peel, twig, and leaf of Gannan navel orange; they were successfully identified to belong to 17 species of 12 genera. All these strains were fermented using potato-dextrose agar (PDA) medium, and their secondary metabolites were then extracted with ethyl acetate (EtOAc). The antibacterial assays of Escherichia coli (E. coli), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) were also performed for the EtOAc extracts of these strains. As a result, the extracts of both Geotrichum sp. (gc-1-127-30) and Diaporthe biconispora (gc-1-128-79) demonstrated significant antibacterial activities against Xcc, and the MIC value for the extract of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides against MRSA was low to 62.5 μg/mL. Moreover, the chemical components of the extracts of Colletotrichum sp., Diaporthe biconispora, and Annulohypoxylon atroroseum were primarily investigated, and they successfully led to the isolation of 24 compounds involving a new botryane sesquiterpene. Among the isolated products, compound 2 showed significant inhibitory activities toward SA, MRSA, E. coli, and Xcc with MIC values of 12.5, 3.1, 125, and 12.5 μg/mL, respectively. This study revealed that the endophytic fungi of Gannan navel orange showed high potency to produce secondary metabolites with significant antibacterial effects.

Abstract
Chemical investigation of the fermentation extract of the mangrove endophytic fungus Aspergillus sp. GXNU-A1, isolated from Acanthus ilicifolius L., discovered an undescribed pair of enantiomers (asperphenyltones A and B (±1)), together with four previously described metabolites: nodulisporol (2), isosclerone (3), 2,3,4-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)-5-methylbenzyl alcohol (4), and 4,6-dihydroxy-5-methoxy-7-methyl-1,3-dihydroisobenzofuran (5). Analyses of the 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data of the compounds supported their structural assignments. The presence of the asperphenyltones A and B, which are a pair of enantiomers, was established by HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR data and confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Metabolites 1-5 were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects on the production of nitric oxide (NO), and 1, 3, and 4 showed significant potential inhibitory activities against NO production in activated macrophages with IC50 values of 26-40 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Herein, a one-pot bienzymatic cascade containing an ene and a naphthol reductase is developed. It is applied for the synthesis of (+)-(3R,4R)-teratosphaerone B, its non-natural regioisomer in both cis- and trans-forms and (+)-xylarenone by the reduction of chemically synthesized naphthoquinone precursors in high yields (76-92%) and excellent ee (>99%). This work implies similar biosynthetic steps in the formation of the synthesized natural products.

Abstract
Four undescribed compounds, guhypoxylonols A (1), B (2), C (3), and D (4), were isolated from the mangrove endophytic fungus Aspergillus sp. GXNU-Y45, together with seven previously reported metabolites. The structures of 1-4 were elucidated based on analysis of HRESIMS and NMR spectroscopic data. The absolute configurations of the stereogenic carbons in 1-3 were established through a combination of spectroscopic data and electronic circular dichroism (ECD). Compounds 1-11 were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity. Compounds 1, 3, 4, and 6 showed an inhibitory activity against the production of nitric oxide (NO), with the IC50 values of 14.42 ± 0.11, 18.03 ± 0.14, 16.66 ± 0.21, and 21.05 ± 0.13 μM, respectively.

Eremophilane Sesquiterpenoids with Antibacterial and Anti-inflammatory Activities from the Endophytic Fungus Septoria rudbeckiae. JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY 2021; 69:11878-11889. [PMID: 34605647 DOI: 10.1021/acs.jafc.1c04131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Fourteen eremophilane sesquiterpenoids (1-14), including nine new congeners, septoreremophilanes A-I (1-9), together with three known sesquiterpenes (15-17), two known tetralone derivatives (18, 19), and two known cholesterol analogues (20, 21), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Septoria rudbeckiae. Compounds 1-6 and 7a belong to the family of the highly oxygenated eremophilane sesquiterpenoids with a 6/6/5 tricyclic system and bearing a hemiacetal moiety. The inhibitions of all metabolites against eight bacteria were estimated in vitro, and nine new metabolites (1-9) were tested for antineuroinflammatory activity. Notably, the effects of 4 against Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidae and 20 against Bacillus cereus displayed potent inhibitory, with the MIC values of 6.25 and 6.25 μM, respectively. Further, scanning electron microscopy analyses indicated that 4 and 20 were to change the outer configuration of bacterial cells, respectively, and the investigations demonstrated that 4 and 20 may act as potential structure templates for the development of the agrochemical bactericides. Additionally, compound 6 displayed potent inhibition of NO generation in lipopolysaccharide-induced BV-2 microglial cells (IC50 = 12.0 ± 0.32 μM), and the conceivable anti-inflammatory mechanisms implicated were also investigated by molecular docking. Thus, the bioactive metabolites of the strain S. rudbeckiae may serve as a novel resource to be developed.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a severe neurodegenerative disorder of different brain regions accompanied by distresses and affecting more than 25 million people in the world. This progressive brain deterioration affects the central nervous system and has negative impacts on a patient’s daily activities such as memory impairment. The most important challenge concerning AD is the development of new drugs for long-term treatment or prevention, with lesser side effects and greater efficiency as cholinesterases inhibitors and the ability to remove amyloid-beta(Aβ) deposits and other related AD neuropathologies. Natural sources provide promising alternatives to synthetic cholinesterase inhibitors and many have been reported for alkaloids while neglecting other classes with potential cholinesterase inhibition. This review summarizes information about the therapeutic potential of small natural molecules from medicinal herbs, belonging to terpenoids, coumarins, and phenolic compounds, and others, which have gained special attention due to their specific modes of action and their advantages of low toxicity and high efficiency in the treatment of AD. Some show superior drug-like features in comparison to synthetic cholinesterase inhibitors. We expect that the listed phytoconstituents in this review will serve as promising tools and chemical scaffolds for the discovery of new potent therapeutic leads for the amelioration and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.
