Chemical profile of the secondary metabolites produced by a deep-sea sediment-derived fungus Penicillium commune SD-118

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the crude extract from Penicillium commune SD-118, a fungus obtained from a deep-sea sediment sample, resulted in the isolation of a known antibacterial compound, xanthocillin X (1), and 14 other known compounds comprising three steroids (2-4), two ceramides (5 and 6), six aromatic compounds (7-12), and three alkaloids (13-15). Xanthocillin X (1) was isolated for the first time from a marine fungus. In the bioassay, xanthocillin X (1) displayed remarkable antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and significant cytotoxicity against MCF-7, HepG2, H460, Hela, Du145, and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. Meleagrin (15) exhibited cytotoxicity against HepG2, Hela, Du145, and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. This is the first report of the cytotoxicity of xanthocillin X (1).     

红树林植物木榄根际土壤真菌Penicillium sp. MA-37 的化学成分研究

对采自海南文昌红树林根际土壤样品中分离到的真菌Penicillium sp. MA-37的次生代谢产物的化学成分进行了研究.利用硅胶柱层析、葡聚糖凝胶Sephadex LH-20柱层析、制备薄层层析以及重结晶等分离方法并通过现代波谱技术共分离、鉴定了8个天然产物,分别为:氮-(2-甲氧基-4-羟基苯)-丙酰胺酸(1),氮-(2,4-二甲氧基苯)-丙酰胺酸(2),氮-(2,4-二甲氧基苯)-丙酰胺酸甲酯(3),(22E,24R)-麦角甾-5,7,22-三烯-3β-醇(4),(22E,24R)-麦角甾-4,6,8(14),22-四烯-3-酮(5),(22E,24R)-5α,8α-环二氧麦角甾-6,22-双烯-3β-醇(6), asperamide B (7), cis-4-hydroxy-6-deoxyscytalone (8);其中化合物1为新化合物,化合物2和3为新天然产物.
