Five new xanthoquinodins, A4-A6 (1-3), B4 (4), and B5 (5), were isolated from the crude extract of the endolichenic fungal strain Chaetomium elatum (No. 63-10-3-1), along with three known xanthoquinodins, A1-A3 (6-8). Their structures were determined by detailed spectroscopic analysis and comparison of the NMR data with those of the closely related compounds previously reported. The absolute configuration of 1 was established by X-ray crystallographic analysis and ECD calculation. The cytotoxic activity of all compounds was tested against HL-60, SMMC-7721, A-549, MCF-7, and SW480 human cancer cell lines.

Two novel diketopiperazine dimers (1 and 2) and two new 4-hydroxyphenylacetates (5 and 6), along with two previously known diketopiperazine dimers were isolated from the culture of the endolichenic fungus Aspergillus sp. CPCC 400810. Their structures were determined through comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, including high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HRESIMS) and 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data.

The endolichenic (EF5), known to show induced metabolite production when exposed to red and green lights, was selected for characterization of their putative light-regulated bioactive compounds. To achieve this, fractionation was first performed for crude extracts from cultures of (EF5) incubated in green, red, white-fluorescent light and dark conditions. The extract yielded 12 (dark condition) to 15 (exposed to green, red, and white-fluorescent lights) fractions, and each of the fractions was tested for antimicrobial activities.

Continuous use of synthetic fungicides has led to explosive emergence of fungicide-resistant microbes. Therefore, there are urgent needs for environmentally friendly antimicrobial agents with novel modes of action. This study investigated endolichenic fungi (ELF) as a source of antimicrobial compounds against various plant pathogens.

Peptaibols are fungal peptides that exhibit efficacy against pathogen microorganisms. Trichokonin VI (TK-VI) and trichokonin VIII (TK-VIII) are known peptaibols isolated from the endolichenic fungi sp. Previous investigations reported that trichokonin VI presents antiproliferative effects on tumor cells.
