A new furanone derivative, butanolide A (1), and a new sesquiterpene, guignarderemophilane F (2), together with six known compounds, were isolated from the fungus Penicillium sp. S-1-18 derived from Antarctic marine. The new structures were determined by spectroscopic studies such as 1D- and 2D-NMR and MS analyses. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by the modified Mosher's method, while the absolute configuration of 2 was determined by calculated ECD spectroscopy. The isolated secondary metabolites were evaluated for their protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitory activity. Compound 1 showed moderate inhibitory activity against PTP1B with IC value of 27.4 μM.

Diabetes has become a global epidemic, affecting even the younger people on an alarming scale. Inhibiting intestinal α-glucosidase is one of the key approaches to managing type 2 diabetes (T2D). In the present study, phenolic compounds (PCs) produced by endophytic fungi as potential α-glucosidase inhibitors (AGIs) are explored through ADMET profiling, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) Simulations.

Infections of intact and damaged skin barriers and keratin are frequently associated with complex biofilm communities containing bacteria and fungi, yet there are limited options for successful management. This study intended to focus on the utility of some novel proprietary lactam molecules, quorum sensing (QS)-derived halogenated furanones, which act to block the QS pathway, against key fungal pathogens of the skin (Candida albicans, Malassezia furfur and Microsporum gypseum). Moreover, we aimed to assess how these actives performed against complex interkingdom biofilms in a clinically relevant model.

A new series of benzo[h]quinoline-containing heterocycles was synthesized via reactions of benzo[h]quinolinyl-2(3H)-furanone with some nitrogen bidentate nucleophiles, leading to the formation of pyridazinone, pyrrolinone, benzimidazole, and benzoxazinone derivatives. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their insecticidal activity against Culex pipiens L. larvae.

3,4-Dichloro-5-hydroxy-2(5)-furanone and its dibromo analog are highly reactive molecules. Both are members of the 2(5)-furanone family, which are important as pharmacophores present in drugs and natural products. Compounds possessing the 2(5)-furanone skeleton isolated from plants and marine organisms exhibit bioactivity against various microorganisms and viruses and can also be used in other medical treatments.
