From the cultures of spore-derived mycobionts of the lichen Lecanora leprosa a novel naphtho[1,8-cd]pyran-3-one derivative, lecanopyrone, was isolated. Its structure was determined by spectroscopic methods. The assembly pattern of acetate units in its biosynthesis was verified using sodium [1-13C]-acetate and sodium [1,2-13C2]-acetate.

Activators of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) increase the expression of the human microsomal fatty acid ω-hydroxylase CYP4F2. A 24-h treatment of either primary human hepatocytes or the human hepatoma cell line HepG2 with 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR), which is converted to 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl 5'-monophosphate, an activator of AMPK, caused an average 2.5- or 7-fold increase, respectively, of CYP4F2 mRNA expression but not of CYP4A11 or CYP4F3, CYP4F11, and CYP4F12 mRNA.
