Four new compounds, asperisocoumarin G (1), asperisocoumarin H (2), (±)-asperisocoumarin I [(±)-3], along with the known pergillin (4) and penicisochroman L (5) were isolated from a mangrove endophytic fungus Aspergillus sp. 085242 by further chemical investigation. The structures of the new compounds, including their absolute configurations, were established by analysis of HR-ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopic data, and ECD calculation. Asperisocoumarins G-I (1-3) were new isocoumarins belonging to the class of furo[3, 2-h]isocoumarins which are rarely found in natural sources. All of the isolated compounds were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory effects, and compounds 1 and 4 showed moderate α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, respectively. In an antimicrobial test, the racemate of 3 showed antibacterial activity against Salmonella.

Background: Avicennia marina ecosystems are critical for coastal protection, water quality enhancement, and biodiversity support. These unique ecosystems thrive in extreme saline conditions and host a diverse microbiome that significantly contributes to plant resilience and growth. Global food security is increasingly threatened by crop yield losses due to abiotic stresses, including saline soils.

Article Synopsis
  • Two new bacterial strains, CSK15Z-1 and MSK8Z-1, were discovered in mangrove branches in Guangxi, China, and are notable for their carotenoid production.
  • Genetic analysis confirmed that these strains are closely related and belong to the same species in the family Aurantimonadaceae, leading to the proposal of a new genus and species named Mangrovibrevibacter kandeliae.
  • These strains also exhibit unique chemical and physical traits, such as specific fatty acids and polar lipids, providing insights into their classification and biological characteristics.

Under the guidance of LC‒MS/MS-based molecular networking, three previously undescribed berkeleyacetal type meroterpenoids, amestolknoids A-C (1-3), together with ten known analogues (4-13) were isolated and identified from the mangrove endophytic fungus Talaromyces amestolkiae SCNU-F0041. Amestolknoids A (1) and B (2) are unprecedentedly congested 6/7/6/5/5/5/5 heptacyclic scaffolds characterized by two chiral spiroketal centers. Amestolknoids A (1) and C (3) represent the first examples of chlorinated berkeleyacetal type meroterpenoids.
