Abstract
Eight undescribed cyathane diterpenoids, representative specialised metabolites of the genus Cyathus, named cyathins Q-X, along with five known congeners, were isolated from the liquid fermentation of Cyathus africanus. Their structures and absolute configurations were elucidated by integrating NMR spectroscopic analyses, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations, and X-ray diffraction. Reasonable correction to the C-12 configuration of cyathin I was corroborated by the crystal data. The structural identification in this research expanded the number of candidates to allow for more bioactivity-screening options. Among them, (12S)-11α,14α-epoxy-13α,14β,15-trihydroxycyath-3-ene displayed significant acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory effect with an IC50 value of 4.60 ± 0.85 μM. Molecular docking studies were also performed to unravel the underlying modes of interactions with the active sites of AChE for active compounds.

Abstract
Three new cyathane diterpenoids, cyathin W (1), cyathin V (2), and cyathin T (3), were isolated from the solid culture of Cyathus africanus. The structures and configurations of these new compounds were elucidated on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic analysis including 1D NMR, 2D NMR (HSQC, HMBC, NOESY), and HR-ESI-MS experiments. Compounds 1 and 3 showed moderate inhibition against nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccaride-activated macrophages with IC50 value of 80.07 and 88.87 μM, respectively. In cytotoxicity assay, compound 1 showed weak cytotoxicity against K562 cell line with IC50 value of 12.1 μM.
